ILLEGAL DETENTION: CAPITAL OIL WORKERS CALL ON FG TO RESOLVE IMPASSE AS DSS FAILS TO PROVIDE DR. UBAH AGAIN

Nigeria's secret Police, the Department of State Services on Thursday, again failed to produce the Chairman, Capital Oil and Gas, Dr. Patrick Ifeanyi Ubah, before Justice Muhammed Idris of the Federal High Court, Ikoyi, Lagos.

This is in flagrant disregard of the May 12, 2017, court order given to the DSS by Justice Idris, to produce Ubah in court today.

However, this came as no fewer than 500 supporters from across different ethnic groups stormed the Federal High Court, Ikoyi, today, to rally around and show support for the oil mogul.

This is even as anger and moral indignation has continued to swell further over the continued detention of the Nnewi-born Billionaire Businessman, by the DSS

Leading the pack of those who have condemned the DSS continued detention of Ubah are Pan-Igbo group, Ohanaeze Ndigbo; Ohanaeze Youth Council (OYC); the National Association of South East Nigeria Students (NASENS), HURIWA, Governor Ayodele Fayose of Ekiti State and  affected workers of Capital Oil and Gas.

Speaking to journalists, a Staff of Capital Oil, Mr. Tony Ogundipe expressed his frustration at the impasse. "We, Capital Oil workers are disappointed with the nonchalant attutude of the Federal Government in the resolution of this matter that has left over 2,000 of us temporarily jobless and redundant. The failure of the FG to call the conspirators to order is a blatant slap on the face of our democracy and sheer insensitivity to the plight of Nigerians", he lamented.

Another staff of Capital Oil and Gas, Mr. Samuel Aywila called on the FG to intervene in a bid to avert the impending starvation of their families. "The injustice meted on Dr Ifeanyi Ubah is negatively affecting over 2,000 workers of Capital Oil. The FG should be mindful of the implications on our families who are gradually been forced to starve", he concluded.

With this latest failure to produce Ubah in court today, Justice Idris adjourned the matter for ruling on Thursday, May 25, 2017.

Dr Patrick Ifeanyi Ubah sends a warm happy birthday message to his Dearest Brother "Afam Osigwe"

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. A perfect gentleman to the core, a detribalized and courageous Nigerian. Our paths crossed over 2 decades ago when by God's special Grace on your life, you distinguished yourself as a young man of strong morals and ethics, excellent character and virtuous attributes. Your achievement over time speaks volumes of your tenacity, commitment, drive and genius. At a relatively young age of 42 years, you attained the position of the Secretary-General of the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA), a rare feat; and by the special grace of God, you will be voted in as the next President of the Nigerian Bar As...

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...
