 Anambra to go after houses without proper drainage in order to combat Erosion  Worried by the rising menace of gully erosion, the Anambra State Government has threatened to enforce regulations requiring residents to provide proper drainage for storm water from their homes. The State Executive Council (ANSEC), which announced the proposed enforcement, lamented that erosion remains an existential challenge in Anambra, blaming the situation on careless actions by some communities and lapses by regulatory bodies in enforcing environmental laws. Briefing journalists after the weekly executive council meeting, the Commissioner for Information, Dr. Law Mefor, said it had been observed that some residents channel storm water from their homes directly onto roads, where it accumulates and worsens the erosion crisis across the state. “ANSEC has resolved to step up enforcement to compel residents to properly channel and manage storm water from their houses. Communities are also expected ...

SHAIBU BEING PERSUADED TO DROP PETITION AGAINST EDO CJ- COUNSEL.(PHOTO).

 Shaibu being persuaded to drop petition against Edo CJ — Counsel


The impeached Deputy Governor of Edo State, Philip Shaibu, is being persuaded to drop his petition against the Chief Judge of the state, Justice Daniel Okungbowa.


His lawyer, Andrew Emwanta, revealed this in an interview on Monday.


Emwanta said in view of the appeals coming from several quarters, Shaibu was weighing his options.


Shaibu, through Emwanta, had last week written to the Chief Justice of Nigeria, Justice Olukayode Ariwoola, requesting a complaint form to file a formal petition against the Chief Judge of Edo, Justice Daniel Okungbowa.


On the request of the Edo State House, the Chief Judge had set up a seven-man panel to probe alleged perjury and leaking of the government’s secrets against Shaibu.


The seven-man panel, headed by retired Justice S.A. Omonuwa, concluded the probe on Friday, April 5, and sent its report to the Assembly on Monday, April 8.


The Assembly, after considering the report of the probe, declared Shaibu guilty of the offence of leaking the state government’s secrets and subsequently impeached him.


Hours later, Governor Godwin Obaseki replaced Shaibu with Omobayo Godwins.


Shaibu, however, described his removal as an illegality, vowing to challenge it through the instrumentality of the law.


In a letter written on his behalf to the CJN, his lawyers said, “We write as solicitors to Rt. Hon. Philip Shaibu, who until this morning was Deputy Governor of  Edo state.


“Rt. Hon Philip Shaibu has instructed us to file a formal complaint to your council against Hon. Justice Daniel Okungbowa, the Chief Judge of Edo State for abuse of office, official misconduct and desecration of his oath of office.


“The purpose of this letter, therefore, is to formally request a complaint form  prescribed under the Judicial Discipline Regulations 2017, to enable our client to file his complaint against the subject judge.”


When our correspondent asked the lawyer, Emwanta, for an update on the matter on Monday, he said, “There has been no response by the CJN to Shaibu’s request for a formal complaint against the state Chief Judge, Andrew Okungbowa.


“But there are moves to stay further action, as appeals have come from certain quarters for further action not to be taken against the Edo CJ. That’s why we are not proceeding for now.”


When asked if he meant the former deputy governor was dropping his complaint due to the appeals, Emwanta said, “I didn’t say so. There are appeals for him to do so, I believe this clarification is sufficient.”
