Protesters Storm Presidential Election Tribunal, Make Demand


May 20, 2023


Protesters under the umbrella of Free Nigeria Movement (FNM), on Saturday, stormed the Court of Appeal headquarters in Abuja, seat of the Presidential Election Petition Court (PEPC), to demand that the judiciary be fair and unbiased in the outcome of the ongoing adjudication on the February 25 presidential election.


The protesters, mostly dressed in black, were also in show of sympathy with the victims of insecurity across the country and demanded an end to recent killings especially in the North-central part of Nigeria.


They carried several placards with inscriptions like; ‘INEC Must Revert Polling Unit Results’, ‘We Take A Stand – May Nigeria Win’, ‘Stop The Violence’, ‘Nigeria Not For Sale’, and ‘We Stand For Justice’, among others.


They also chanted slogans, advocating for justice and transparency in the legal process at the Tribunal and good governance.


Addressing the crowd of protesters, convener of the group, Dr Moses Paul, said the group does not support any political party but stand in solidarity with the people of Nigeria in defence of justice and good governance.


He said, “We are standing here and decisions are being made right now inside the Appeal Court, we are demanding for the right thing to be done.


“Any judge that decides to collect money or decides not to follow the constitution of Nigeria, any judge that decides to do the wrong thing so that Nigeria can go down, e no go better for una!.


“The entire Africa and the world is waiting for us to show dignity, honestly, direction and leadership because until Nigeria takes its seat in the comity of nations, Africa is going nowhere, we cannot watch our nation degrade to nothing when the world is watching and waiting for us.


“We have seen so much death and blood that we are not even crying anymore. We stand here for equity, justice, fairness and accountability, that’s our demand,” he added.


Also speaking, a member of the group, Lucky Obiyan, expressed concerns over the plan of a political working to overtake national interest ahead of the inauguration of the 10th National Assembly.


Obiyan said, “The Free Nigeria Movement refuses to pitch its tent with the 10th Assembly that will become an appendage under the whims and caprices of the ruling party.


“In regard for judiciary, from the Appellate Court to the Supreme Court, please allow justice to reign, don’t sell justice to the highest bidder.”


The protest was peaceful amidst heavy presence of armed police personnel at the premises of the Appeal Court with no reports of violence or arrest.


However, tensions remain high as the country awaits the outcome of the petitions before PEPC. The judiciary was yet to respond to the protesters’ demands, but many of them were hopeful that their voices will be heard and that justice will be served at the end of the day.

  SSANU, NASU threaten strike over withheld salaries The Joint Action Committee of the Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities and the Non-Academic Staff Union of Educational and Associated Institutions have threatened to disrupt industrial peace in universities should the government fail to release the withheld salaries of members. The salaries were seized by the administration of former President Muhammadu Buhari during their strike in 2022. The unions, in a joint letter signed on Friday by the President of SSANU, Muhammed Ibrahim and General Secretary of NASU, Peters Adeyemi, questioned the rationale with which the government released four months withheld salaries to members of the Academic Staff Union of Universities but failed to release the withheld salaries of non-academic staff. The unions noted that they would no longer be able to assure the government of industrial peace in universities should the amounts owed by the government are not released. Earlier, the uni...
