Justice Ahmed Mohammed of the Federal High Court in Abuja, on Monday recused himself from a suit brought by Omoyele Sowore, the convener of #RevokutionNow, currently before him.

The Director-General of DSS and the Attorney General of the Federation are the first and second defendants in the suit. “Again this year, around June, the same applicant accused me of taking money again on the same case and I had to hands off again.“In all honesty, will it be fair for me to sit on this matter concerning the publisher?”“What if in a way my order seems not to be favourable, I will be seen as being paid for or when the proceeding is even going on, the applicant himself will be apprehensive.

The Judge, who was unhappy with Agbadua’s comment, later stood down the case for the parties to regularise all the processes and to seek for their opinions on his decision to withdraw from the case. He argued that his continued detention in spite of the November 6 release order was “unlawful, unconstitutional, null and void.”
