Marshal was accused of filing a lawsuit on behalf of Sowore, who was illegally arrested on the trumped up allegation of defaming a former Member House of Representatives, Ned Nwoko.

An Area Court sitting in Kabusa in the Federal Capital Territory Abuja has ordered the remand of Abubakar Marshal, a lawyer to human rights’ activist, Omoyele Sowore, in Kuje Correctional Centre till Tuesday, March 8.SaharaReporters earlier reported how overzealous policemen arrested Marshal in his home by armed policemen who were taking orders from Nwoko, who hurriedly took him to the court with a view to sending him to prison custody.

Marshal who represented himself told the court that he is member of the legal profession and the Nigerian Bar Association and that he could not run away and that his International Passport had been taken away by the police. Marshal added that the defendant, Sowore, had never been invited by the police and that he made a formal declaration to run for President in 2023 on Tuesday but the police did arrest him; and that the defendant was not on the run.He therefore asked the court to grant him bail.

The judge after he had listened to the submission said he was not convinced and he therefore ordered him to be remanded in Kuje prison till Tuesday, March 8, when he would rule on bail application. The judge, who was said to have been brought to court in a Mercedes Benz belonging to Ned Nwoko, orchestrated the whole arrangement.Recall that Sowore had during the week filed a lawsuit against Nwoko and the Nigeria Police Force and demanded the sum of N200milion over his illegal arrest and detention last Thursday.

Nigeria judiciary is dead!!

And where is the NBA....😭😭😭

Always giving us one sided story.

😲😲😲😲😲 Kai people have abused this law too much

The rich oppresses the poor & its very glaring in the Jungle aka British Contraption.

I blame this Sahara reporters of a thing 😏

That Kabusa Grade 1 Area Court Judge has become very notorious for doing dirty business with Abba Kyari whatsapp group members of the police.

He is also notorious for being the man Friday of police officers who exhibit reckless disregard for the sanctity of the constitutional and fundamental rights of the citizens.

on the wrong side of the law. He is notorious for dispensing justice to the highest bidder, regardless of whether there is a judicially justifying reason or not.

Eweeiiiii🙆🙆

Sowore want to buy market that is not his own in the name of activism. Wetin concern for Jaruma matter? When Jaruma was slandering Ned was Sowore not there to advise her as his friend? Nonsense.

Nigeria is gradually becoming a useless County

If lawyers can be Send to prison for doing their jobs who are we to talk

That yeye Sowore too should be in prison for treasonous publication

Which way Nigeria

The judge was brought to court in the Mercedes benz of the complainant Ned Nwoko, and accompanied by the staffs of the latter also.Obviously the judge must have received a bank alert from Ned Nwoko.The bastardization of the judiciary in Nigeria has reached an alarming rate.

2 seconds e don clear for baba eye!!😂🤣.Shey u Dey whine money nii?😂.U go dey sue Dey man Wey get money & connect pass mtn for NAIJA.u never see nothing😂.No worry!.Baba think say NAIJA na Illinois for U.S.better wake up from thy slumber able comrade of the law chambers😂🤣🤣

Injustice in every nook & cranny of Nigeria unless u are one of them who are rich enough to buy justice. Justice is always for sale in this part of the world. It's a pity that'all animals are equal but some are more equal than the other' in Nigeria as far as justice is concerned

Tell us the whole story.

Omo, it’s hard studying law in a lawless country 🤦‍♂️

Lol .. one Nigeria.. I love this

Only Putin go judge this matter for ground

I think Ned has Buhari's nudes 🚶🚶🚶

Sowore is getting what he is demanding, Sowore wants One Nigeria, One Nigeria is yet to happen to him, this is just a tip of the iceberg

So in Nigeria there r also citizens above d law, how on earth would a court under whose jurisdiction lawyers practices law, d actual office of lawyers, sends a lawyer to prison 4 suing a citizen to court?, unbelievable & So many morons still wants d country wt such court 2 remain

Abubakar is it a name?

In this country it is all about money and power, God bless Nigeria God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria

I don't understand, you mean it's now illegal for a lawyer to file a suit against someone?

The harassment of lawyers must stop. A lawyer is a professional engaged to render service. I believe the NBA is on top of the matter.

Revolution Is The Festival Of The Oppressed~ Germaine Greer.

Nnamdi kanu warned that this will happen but many so called intellectuals called him unprinted names, today is clear to all to see. Foresight aren't meant for everybody. Today lawyers has lost their values in Nigeria, court orders are useless and everyone is crying now. Shame!

iyaboawokoya Nice one

A lawyer cannot be sent to prison just for filling a case. You are being economical with the truth, tell us exactly what the lawyer did?. He must be a fraudulent lawyer, the type that ridicule judicial system.

Zoological republic of animal kingdom. What else do you expect from a zoo? Nigeria should have been named Zoo-area. Fool-ani cows running the zoo called Nigeria.

rainbowsynergie And what's the OlumideAkpata-led NBA doing about it? Nigeria will continue to decay and decompose if trade unions like the NBA, NLC, NUPENG, TLC, ASUU, Civil Society, and the Nigerian Press continue to be docile. These current ruling political elites will bury Nigeria.

This is wrong...

If this true , the judge should be arrested, charged , sacked & remanded in custody. Looks like he is not even hiding his corrupt act.

Is this criminal?

Fake news, tell us what he really did.

Power jam power.,.. Nigeria is a joke

Money is a defense, money answereth all things. Money is power

See why this social media bill must be past, my annoyance is that men, women who are graduates, master degree holders believe this and follow along, this country is not that bad that a lawyer files a case and the next thing the judge orders for his arrest. Abba naaah
