Imo State Assembly Recommends Chief Judge’s Removal Over Age Falsification
The Imo State House of Assembly has recommended the removal of Chief Judge Justice Theresa Chukwuemeka-Chikeka following allegations of misconduct and age falsification.
During a plenary session, a two-thirds majority voted in favor of the recommendation made by an ad hoc committee, which investigated a petition from the Civil Society Engagement Platform.
The committee, led by Hon Ikenna Ihezue, found evidence that Justice Chukwuemeka-Chikeka altered her date of birth in a statutory declaration of age sworn in 2006, conflicting with records from her admission to the Nigerian Law School and employment in the state’s civil service.
Despite invitations, the Chief Judge declined to appear before the committee, citing constitutional grounds, and insisted on appearing only before a panel appointed by the National Judicial Council (NJC).
The Assembly’s resolution will now be forwarded to the NJC for further action, marking a significant development in Imo State’s judicial landscape.
A viral clip has made its way online showing a police officer in Delta State shooting a suspect who had already been restrained.
It can be noted that the suspect was pleading, claiming he had been framed and deceived, and said he would lead them to the right place.
However, while he was pleading, the police officer shot him. The officer later stated that the suspect was armed with a gun.
It was later revealed that the police officer has been arrested, as it is against the law to shoot a restrained suspect.
It was reported by the Kogi State Government that 24 children were abducted from an orphanage home. It was shared that this happened on the 26th of April, Sunday, and gunmen were seen in the area that day.
The information was shared by the Commissioner of Information, Kingsley Fanwo, who shared this sad news and described it as unfortunate.
“We condemn in strong terms the abduction of innocent children from an orphanage, the government is working closely with security operatives to ensure their safe return,”
