His statement highlights that Igboho’s actions were “unlawful, illegal, and unconstitutional,” describing them as “reckless and injurious” to his position as the Aare Ona Kakanfo.

His fundamental rights procedures rules brought pursuant to section 27, 37 and 46 of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria,1999 as amended and Enforcement Act, Cap, A9, Laws of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 2004.


The applicant is also praying the court  to declare that, “it is unlawful, illegal and unconstitutional for anyone to surreptitiously record the private telephone conversation between other persons without the consent and authority of the parties to the conversation
