Another Judge, Justice Ngwuta Accuses Amaechi Of Begging Him To Remove Fayose


Another Justice of the Supreme Court whose home was raided by operatives of the Department of State Service, DSS, Justice Sylvester Ngwuta, has alleged that he was being victimized for refusing entreaties, at various times, to help the All Progressives Congress, APC, win governorship election cases involving Ekiti, Rivers and Ebonyi states.
 
His claim came barely three days after Justice John Inyang Okoro, also a Supreme Court Judge,alleged that former Rivers Governor and now transport minister, Rotimi Amaechi, reached out to him over election appeal cases for Rivers, Akwa Ibom and Abia States.

Justice Ngwuta in a letter to the Chief Justice of Nigeria, CJN, specifically mentioned Amaechi and Minister of Technology, Dr. Ogbonnaya Onu, as two top APC leaders who approached him.

Justice Ngwuta, made the disclose in a letter dated October 18 and addressed to CJN, Mahmud Mohammed and the National Judicial Council, NJC.

The letter is entitled: “Invasion Of My House In The Night, Planting Of Huge Sums Of Money In Different Currencies, Purported Recovery Of The Money, Carting Away Of My Documents And Other Valuable Items And My Subsequent Abduction By Masked Operatives Of The DSS Between Friday, October 7th And Saturday, October 8th, 2016”.

In it, Ngwuta said Ameachi begged him to facilitate the removal of Governor Ayodele Fayose of Ekiti State.

He further stated that shortly after the Supreme Court affirmed the election of Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State, Amaechi also called him on phone and said “Oga is not happy”.
