FG Orders Police to Immediately Unseal Peace Corps Office

The Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami, SAN, has directed Police to without further delay unseal the Corporate Head Office of the Peace Corps of Nigeria located in Jabi District of Abuja.

Only few months ago former National Security Adviser, Colonel Sambo Dasuki and Convener #RevolutionNow Protest, Omoyele Sowore were released from custody following a similar directive to the Department of State Service by Malami. Justice John Tsoho had in 2018 halted the trial of the National Commandant of the Peace Corps of Nigeria, Ambassador Dickson Akoh in the 13-count alleged criminal charges brought against him by the Nigerian police, following the passistent refusal of police to open the corporate head office of the Corps sealed up since February 28, 2017 during its official inauguration in Abuja.

In the ruling that lasted about 30 munites the court said that it was wrong of police to have chosen to disobey two judgments of the court which directed it to unseal the office in the past one year.
