BREAKING: Rivers crisis: Chief Judge transfers Amaewhule’s defection case

Tsoho ordered that the cases be transferred from Federal High Court 4, Port Harcourt, presided over by Justice Steven Dalyop Pam, to Court Two headed by Justice E. O. Obele. The CJ ordered the transfer of the case following a petition by a defendant in the matter, Hon. Martins Amaewhule, demanding that the cases against him be transferred to another court.

The presiding judge, Justice Steven Dalyop Pam, who read the petition in the open court, had noted that the petitioner, Amaewhule, was praying to the CJ of the High Court to stop the hearing process following the petition. When the petition was read, counsel for the plaintiff, BOOT Party, Mr Reuben Wanogho, informed the court that the petition was aimed at arresting the ongoing case and urged the court to ignore it.
