Correctional Center Officials Refuses To Release Farah, Hours After Court Grant Bail

 


DEVELOPING STORY ON BAIL GRANTED HON. DOCTOR FARAH DAGOGO BY FEDERAL HIGH COURT, PORT HARCOURT.

Earlier today, May 23rd, 2022  a Federal High Court sitting in Port Harcourt, under Hon. Justice E. A Obile issued a Production Warrant for the Correctional Centre to produce Hon. Doctor Farah Dagogo, a Rivers State Peoples Democratic Party, PDP Governorship aspirant and Member Representing Degema/Bonny Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives, in court.

Hon. Justice E. A Obile further ordered the Correctional Centre to release Hon. Doctor Farah Dagogo on bail based on previous bail order of May 12, 2022. 

Regrettably, like the bail order granted on May 12th but criminally disobeyed and thwarted by the government of Rivers State, through Governor Nyesom Wike and State Attorney-General, Zacchaeus Adangor, SAN, alongside the State Commissioner of Police, Eboka Friday, another disobedience to the order of a competent court of jurisdiction is playing out. 

4. This time, the Correctional Centre came up with excuse of regularising the bail conditions within one hour, akin to what the Police did on May 12th, 2022  that eventually ensured that Hon. Doctor Farah Dagogo is still in detention. As at the time of writing this, it is more than four hours and the Court Order is yet to be obeyed. 

5. This information is for lovers of democracy and rule of law, international communities, civil society organisations and others to be fully aware of the impunity and executive rascality being operated and encouraged in Rivers State by Governor Nyesom Wike and his minions. The fact of the matter remains that on a daily basis, Governor Wike is upping all illegalities and circumventing all known laws of the land with the unholy intent to actualize his devious machinations, through high level conspiracy, targeted at preventing Hon. Doctor Farah Dagogo from participating in the governorship race.

RE: REPLY TO ELEM-KALABARI COUNCIL'S PRESS RELEASE

SPONSORED  FROM: THE PEOPLE OF DABIRA, COMMUNITY BILLE KINGDOM. DATE: JANUARY 23, 2025 We, the people of Dabira community, hereby submit this formal reply in response to the Ijaw National Congress (I.N.C) press release issued by the Elem-Kalabari Council of Chiefs on January 23, 2025. In response to the claims made by the Elem-Kalabari community, we provide the following perspectives based on territorial rights, historical ownership, and the law. 1. TERRITORIAL CLAIMS AND ENCROACHMENT  We categorically reject the assertion by the Elem-Ama Council that the Bille people’s claims of encroachment are "false alarms." The ongoing surveying activities in the Cawthorne Channel area, which have been identified as encroaching on Bille lands, are clear legal violations under customary and statutory law. According to established legal principles governing the ownership and use of land, including the Nigerian Land Use Act (1978), the rights of indigenous communities to their ancestral lan...
