The Middle Belt Youths Forum (MBYF) has described the recent attempt to blackmail the Appeal Panel for Imo State National/State Assembly elections by Echezona
Etiaba as the highest level of desperation to subvert the will of the people by stealing their mandate.
MBYF recalled how Etiaba, who is APC counsel in the Imo State National Assembly appeal cases, caused a commotion at the Lagos Division of the Court of Appeal when he presented two petitions, accusing the three-member panel of being compromised.The panel comprised the head, Justice Danjuma Mohammed, alongside Justice Peter Affen and Justice Asmau’u Musa Mainoma, who is one of the newly appointed Justices to the Court of Appeal, as members of the appeal panel.
“Their plan is almost coming to fruition though it will not work. Because immediately after that perfectly acted drama, the innocent Justices who denied spurious allegations went a step further to recuse themselves from the appeals of Imo State. “We will ensure the judiciary is not cowed or blackmailed into paving the way for an individual known for always subverting justice to achieve his desperation.
