JUDICIAL TRAVESTY IN ABUJA: NNPP VOWS TO OVERTURN ILLEGAL AND ILLOGICALLY DEFIANT JUDGEMENT FROM DESPERATE SABOTEURS AND THEIR ENABLERS


ABUJA, NIGERIA – The New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP) wishes to address the general public and millions of our supporters regarding the patently illegal and logically defiant judgment delivered today by Hon. Justice Bello Kawu of the FCT High Court, Apo.

This judgment represents a dangerous low in our judicial history. It is a textbook example of judicial rascality, where a court of coordinate jurisdiction (FCT High Court) has audaciously attempted to sit on appeal over the decision of another High Court (Abia State)—an act that flies in the face of established legal hierarchy and the doctrine of stare decisis.

A Grand Scheme of Desperation

The facts are clear: a group of expelled members, acting as puppets for Dr. Boniface Aniebonam, approached the FCT High Court seeking a "Judicial Review" of a matter already pending before the Court of Appeal, Owerri. This blatant disregard for the rule of sub judice proves that these individuals are not seeking justice, but are part of a grand, desperate scheme to destabilize one of the viable opposition parties in Nigeria ahead of the 2027 elections.

Assault on Due Process

The court’s decision to proceed despite clear evidence that the NNPP was never served with court processes is a fatal blow to the principle of Fair Hearing. By ignoring our affidavit stating that substituted service was effected at an address not recognized by INEC, the court has signaled a worrying lack of interest in procedural integrity.

A Threat to Democracy and 2027 Credibility.

This judgment will further erode the confidence of Nigerians and the international community in our judiciary. At a time when the world is watching Nigeria’s democratic progress, such "black market" like judgments suggest a coordinated attempt by desperate elements to stifle opposition and compromise the credibility of the 2027 general elections.

A Message of Confidence

To our members and the Nigerian people: Do not be discouraged. The NNPP remains a fortress. This is merely a temporary detour orchestrated by those who fear the people's will. We are immediately taking all necessary legal steps to appeal this miscarriage of justice. We have absolute confidence that the Appellate Courts will rectify this anomaly and uphold the sanctity of the law.

The grand scheme to hijack this party will fail. Nigeria’s democracy is bigger than the desperation of a few.
