All my years as a Human Right activist with Grace and Justice Human Right Initiative, there is one thing I have known about judiciary and its tenets. Every Judicial Council, Nigeria Judicial Council inclusive, is aware of this greatest judicial tenet. The mother JUSTICE in the realm who is the Almighty God himself, the owner of the courts as his judicial temples & altars, also who is the owner of the powers vested on courts for dispensing an unbendable justice, and also the owner of the judicial priests who are the judges empowered to rightly and unbiasly give all and sundry the unbendable justice without influence from anybody no matter how highly placed the person may be.
It is on this ground that the mother JUSTICE established a tenet that "it is better for any judicial set-up whether domestic or international, that 99 accused persons who may be guilty escapes justice due to insufficient evidence from the prosecutor, than 1 accused person who may be innocent to be nailed through travesty of justice". This is the stand of mother JUSTICE. I am not a trained lawyer but all my little knowledge in judicial and legal processes was obtained through my years of Human Right activism. But ask any legal practitioner or judge around you and you will be made to know of this fact. The worst damage or tragedy that will befall any judicial setting like Nigeria Judicial Council is to supervise the nailing of an innocent man whom two courts in the same setting have ordered his unconditional release on the want of evidence and substance. It has become obvious to the whole world that Mazi Nnamdi Kanu (Prisoner of Conscience), the leader of Indigenous People of Biafra commit no other offence against Nigeria government except that He demanded for the restoration of Biafra.
Had he stopped demanding for the restoration Biafra, he will not be in Kuje prison till today. It was because of that greatest tenet of the mother JUSTICE and the incorruptibility in Hon Justice Adeniyi Ademola who is representing God in his court, made him not to pretend that he did not understand that Nnamdi Kanu commit no offence. Unlike Justice John Tsoho who is representing satan in the judicial temple of God, Hon Justice Ademola, after hearing from the analysis and arguments of both counsels to DSS of Buhari and Nnamdi Kanu of IPOB, quickly advised the DSS counsel and said "next time when you bring a person to this court on accusation of terrorism, make sure you bring a real terrorist and not a freedom fighter or activist who preach his ideology on a radio station because terrorists do not stay in radio stations" and he ordered Nnamdi Kanu's unconditional release. However, the maximum ruler of Nigeria, tyrant Buhari who has become an embodiment of lawlessness since 31st December 1983, when he committed treason disobeyed court verdict and dragged Nnamdi Kanu to Justice John Tsoho accusing him of treason.
It is on this ground that Justice John Tsoho completely destroyed the remaining integrity in Nigeria judiciary through his verdict somersault, hoarding of court sitting original documents, unnecessary verbal attacks on defence lawyers, and all manner of judicial rascality. Let nobody forget that counsel to Nnamdi Kanu, Hon Bar. Ifeanyi Ejiofor petitioned Justice Tsoho to NJC, over his excesses while making mockery of NJC during his hearing on the case. I hereby ask NJC, have you people thrown away the petition of Hon Bar. Ejiofor because Justice Tsoho out of shame hands-off the case? If not, will it take eternity for the investigating panel to complete their enquiry? The fact that Justice Tsoho hands-off the case should not make him to escape the hammer of NJC for the damage he did on Nigeria Judiciary.
I hereby advise the NJC that the only thing that we purge the Nigeria judiciary of the mess & moral fickleness brought upon her by Justice Tsoho's travesty of justice against Nnamdi Kanu which has reduced him to a suspect before the investigating panel is the outright suspension of Justice John Tsoho to enable the panel free hand to conduct enquiry on him. At my last check, Justice Tsoho is still presiding over cases at his division of federal high court. For God's sake, if not judicial and moral fickleness, how do NJC think that the panel will be free to conduct such enquiry on a sitting judge? The only way NJC will convince the world of clean hand in Justice Tsoho judicial excesses under investigation is to as a matter of urgency suspend him from all judicial activities for the panel to have free access to him. There is no how you will be investigating a sitting judge that possesses direct or indirect judicial immunity. Critics are already saying that Justice Tsoho has the backing of NJC while doing his judicial excesses. Let NJC suspend him now and prove critics wrong.
