VAT Judgement Will Be Fair And Free From External Influence - CJN Tanko

Ibrahim Muhammad, chief Justice of Nigeria (CJN), says the panel which will hear an appeal by the Rivers state government on the value-added tax (VAT) controversy will be free from external influence.

Rivers is seeking a supreme court ruling setting aside an order of the appeal court which directed the state to maintain status quo on the collection of VAT pending the determination of an appeal filed by the Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS).

Supreme court insiders had told TheCable on Thursday that there are plans to arrange a UK trip for the CJN before a panel is constituted to determine the appeal.

In his absence, Mary Odili, the No 2 in the supreme court hierarchy and former first lady of Rivers state, will appoint the members of the panel.

However, A senior special assistant on media to CJN, Isah Ahuraka, said the CJN is healthy and thus, has no plan to travel to the UK for medical attention.

Lagos Assembly Amend Criminal Justice Law of Lagos State.

▪︎No more parading of suspect by Police

▪︎No arrest without warrant, unless suspect Carrie's fi****ms.

▪︎No more arrests of suspect's family members.

▪︎No more torture or harassment of suspects, before or after arrest.

▪︎Suspects should have access to lawyers.

1. No more parading of suspect by Police.
“As from the commencement of this law, the police shall refrain from parading any suspect before the media.”

2. No Arrest without warrant.
The new law makes it mandatory for Police to present an arrest warrant before arresting a suspect, and the only condition to do otherwise is when the person is reasonably suspected to unlawfully be in possession of fi****ms or other such dangerous instruments.

In any case where the suspect does not possess weapons or fi****ms unlawfully, the police must show a warrant of arrest.

3. No more arrest in lieu.
This means that a family member or relations of a suspect can no longer be arrested and only the alleged suspect should be arrested.

The Nigerian Police are used to arresting every person they meet at an arrest location whether the suspect is there or not, this act is no more legal and the police in Lagos can now be sued for arresting friends or family members of a suspect.

4. No more harassments or torture of suspects.
The new law bars the Police from harassing or torturing a suspect before or after arrest.

"A suspect should also be accorded humane treatment, with the right to dignity of person; not subjected to any form of torture, cruel, inhumane or degrading treatment; be brought before the court as prescribed by this law or any other written law; or be released conditionally or unconditionally.”

5. Access to lawyer.
The new law stipulates that a suspect has the right to a lawyer and must not be held in custody beyond the lawful day.

"A person arrested shall be given reasonable facilities for obtaining legal advice, bail or making arrangements for defense

Look at how he runs Lagos State like a pig farm.
Removed a Governor like a Council Chairman.
They don’t do elections in Lagos, only impositions.
He pays hoodlums a.k.a Agberos N125billion annually. That’s more than money most states get in a year.
He will destroy Nigeria completely with corruption.
