DSS/Ifeanyi Ubah: Thousands in Court on Solidarity for Ifeanyi Ubah as Court adjourn the matter to 25th May ,2017

 By Ade Omoletu, Lagos.Today,

The Court premises was filled with people from different works of live on solidarity for Ifeanyi Ubah.

The group that is made of market women and men , civil society organizations , Igbo groups , labour unions etc were all at the court in solidarity with Dr Ifeanyi Ubah .

You may recall that DSS had on 5th May arrested Ifeanyi Ubah ,the MD Capital Oil and Gas for what they alleged to be a case of stealing , illegal diverting of NNPC Fuel and inciting of the labour union .

But, Capital Oil and Gas and Labour union (NUPENG ) have denied the allegations  by stating that NNPC is indebted to the Capital Oil and gas to the tune of over N16billion .

Publicity secretary of Human Right group ( Right Watch ), Dr Tunde O Tunde who was also at the court stated that the incarceration of Dr Ifeanyi Ubah amount to not just threat to his right ,but threat to the Nigeria Democracy .

According to him :

"Why overheating the Polity? This is a mere commercial transaction between NNPC and Capital Oil which should be resolved inline with the contractual principles . Using coercion forces of the govt on this issue amount to threat to Nigeria Democracy ." he submits.

Moreso, one Mrs Edith questioned the government's commitment in tackling the mirage of challenges facing the people .

" imagine that over 2000 workers and their families are under economic threat due to the Govt action on Capital Oil . I was thinking that govt should be more considerate on the plight of the people than hitting the people hard through their malicious actions against Capital Oil and Gas ?" she asked

A Security Consultant Mr Godwin Ayo, also informed the press that Nigerian Security agency should upgrade its operational tactics and  understand the modern ways of securing the Country .

According to him ,
" Just look at the way they ended up making Mazi Nnamdi KANU  who was unknown by Nigerians until they arrested him famous .

Today, we are making the same mistake. You arrested Ifeanyi Ubah on issue that has to do with Commercial transactions which ought to be treated in a civil court and today, not only that you are creating panic in the system and building unnecessary tension in the the polity, but you are even making him a hero." He said.

" Governemnt should not be seen as the one creating multi lines of regional Cum ethnic  tensions and mutual distrust amongst its citizenry by its actions".

Watching closely, you will observe that  South East is one zone that believe that Buhari led Federal Government is against them and the Federal government through its  security agency should not be seen  confirming this widely held belief.

Currently, the issue  of the Zone being excluded from the Coastal Railway projects is trending, thereby confirming this belief, now when you juxtapose it with the commando style and militaristic interference of DSS in a pure Civil case involving two business partners by arresting Dr Ifeanyi Ubah, the MD of Capital Oil and gas and subsequently disobeying for the second time a valid  court order to produce him leaves one with no choice, but to believe that this is a calculated effort to kill the enterprises of the zone.

DSS must as a matter of national interest and in clear respect of democratic tenets live up to its statutory responsibility and stop taking us aback to the era of dictatorial military regimes.

#Justice4IfeanyiUbah is now a National anthem

I heartily convey to you my kindest and heartiest sentiments of goodwill on the special occasion of your 45th birthday. I congratulate you because you have spent the last 19 years of your life championing the cause of humanity via your diverse interventions which have deepened Nigeria's legal jurisprudence and have also in no small measure improved the administration of criminal justice.

Message to the Members of the PDP Board of Trustees From The Ifeanyi Ubah Support Group.

We came with humility to inform you of the great injustice meted out on some faithful members of the PDP, most especially Dr. Ifeanyi Ubah which is on the verge of tearing the party apart as well disunite the members of the PDP in Anambra State bearing in mind the deplorable state of our reward system. Owing to the primary election which was recently conducted, it is an obvious fact that the primary election was designed to favour the anointed candidate of a godfather in Anambra State against hardworking party faithfuls and loyalists and people who have suffered for the party, most especially, Dr. Ifeanyi Ubah. Out of the seven candidates aspirants, four withdrew from partaking in the primary elections owing to the irregularities. However, it takes humility and party commitment even in the face of manipulation, scheming and glaring irregularities, for one to continue in the race just as Dr. Ifeanyi Ubah did. It is on record that Dr. Ifeanyi Ubah, since the sham of a primary election...
