This apparently is not allowed in court and was noticed by the presiding judge who immediately registered her displeasure and ordered that Megan be escorted out of the court room and remanded in the court waiting cell. She was held up for 20 minutes in the court cell and later released after much plea from lawyers and judicial workers. Narrating what happened to LIB, Megan said...continue...
“The incident happened at about 9am. I didn't know the rules of the court so I was replying an urgent message. It was not like I wanted to disrespect the court. The incident today only made me know the rules of the Nigerian law court. I was later invited by the Judge to her chambers and she accepted my apology. The prison officials were also nice” she said
One in a blue moon.

ReplyDeleteGood for her. Lindaobseve
ReplyDeleteShowing them dat d have to obey our laws
ReplyDeleteShe lied, before you enter the court, there's always a notice that indicates no noise area. If it were to be a Nigerian, they will keep him in jail for day's if not month's.
ReplyDeleteOf course it's the law, you can't even chew gum too or anything. No one is above the law and she knows that.

ReplyDeleteYou are forgiven. Go and sin no more.
ReplyDeleteAway from yankee gist abeg. Are you a lady? Are you bored alone or in that relationship of yours? do you really want to turn things up a notch? If so, why not take that bold step and send a line of interest to akimseun2@gmail.com and lets explore together the infinite possibilities that exist.
Two things are guaranteed tho: One is discretion and two is i dont need your money.
The requirement to turn off telephones is a standard rule in the courts and clearly pasted for all to see.
ReplyDeleteBecause she's white! Kmt! Bloody slaves. Let a Nigerian lawyer or whoever try it and see how they will handle them.
ReplyDeleteWhy won't they (prison officials) be Nice? If ya all understand my sarcasm.
ReplyDeleteIF NA YANKEE DEM GO LOCK UP NIGERIAN FOR ONE YEAR... LIB FATHER
ReplyDeleteI like what i hear. It is good Nigerians also enforced strict laws on foreigners. No be only foreigners sabi enforce laws on Nigerians. Good one!
ReplyDeleteY won't the officials be nice. No be oyibo? If Na me nah dye would beat me and I must bail out with at least 10k. Our hypocritical officials.
ReplyDeleteShe didnt want to disrespect the court my ass, I'm sure she wldnt try that in a U.S court.
ReplyDeleteP.s, the guards were only nice to you coz yr white, u shd see how they treat a black prisoner
This is the type of typical arrogance usually exhibited by the average American. Would she have tried such nonsense in a court in US? Rubbish!
ReplyDeleteOh ok
ReplyDeleteAnd this is news because?????? Because she is white? American? Like when is our slave mentality going to stop? This happens all the time! Even if she wasn't in court isnt it just plain rude? White American locked up for 20 mins, hold the press!! Front page news! Irritating!
ReplyDeleteYou have to switch off your phone(s) before the Judge/Magistrate sits in any Court in Nigeria otherwise it/they might be seized. Her case was not even that the phone rang, she had the audacity to answer the call in the court room. #gbese#. She was even lucky the Judge had to release her after so much plea.
ReplyDeleteGood! next time dont disrespect anyone by violating laws/rules you know is not acceptable anywhere in the world. you cant even have your phone on in the courts here in the states
ReplyDeleteU dnt kw d rules of nigeria count... If she was in her country's court, wil she answer a call?She shud hv stayed dia 4 a day dan afta dat, she will tell d story 2 her president. Rubbish
ReplyDeleteShe was found in contempt of court and needed to be jailed. Nationality doesn't matter. If a Nigerian does the same in America, you will not see it in the news.
ReplyDeleteHmmmm
ReplyDeleteSoooo oo
ReplyDelete#GodblessNigeria
Good
ReplyDeleteU be oyibo naaa, y wont the prison officials be nice. If its a nigerian, they will lock u up before they r told to. Maybe they think the oyibo will tell Obama, and he will come and compensate them. Ndi ara
ReplyDeleteHmmm dis Is actually very interesting..
ReplyDeleteAwwww pele na just 20mins na! Pele shogbo
ReplyDeleteB4 I read d name of d judge, I knew only n Only 1 judge could ve done that in d whole of Lagos or prolly in d whole of Nigeria. #tuale mama *she s that crai!
ReplyDeleteNa only her fit do that in d whole of Lagos n prolly Nigeria. #she s dat crai. Tuale mama
ReplyDeleteSee as ignorance fit put person for wahala.
ReplyDeleteAaaaaaaaaand why is this news again? Because she is an American and white? You do know this happens in American courts toO and nobody makes a scene about it.
ReplyDeleteAd now u done sabi our court rule.
ReplyDeleteYimu! That judge just wan show herself ni. I've seen lawyers send text while proceedings are going on here in naija, and no one did JACK. Yeye dey smell.
ReplyDeleteNice. Really good. Rule of law coming into play
ReplyDeletePublicity stunt
ReplyDeleteOh! Sorry our oyibo lady dat dis happened to u for law's has no respect for outsider's mostly d white's.
ReplyDeleteThis is a good one. The Judge was very nice to have invited her over to her chambers and she apologized. Secondly, the nice disposition of the prison officials is commendable. Good character in all.
ReplyDeleteOf course why won't she know? In America I've been in court severally and they have same rules. So it serve her right but thanks to the judge for her mercy.
ReplyDeleteGood.
ReplyDelete9ja the hard way.
ReplyDeleteYeye dey smell...if na fellow Nigerian, na beating una for use welcom am,plus no lawyer for beg on her behalf.Black ass mentality n inferiority complex
ReplyDeleteThat's the funny thing about Nigeria and rules of judge and courts. If you know you don't want phones in court collect it at the door so ppl know phones are not allowed at all in courts. Wonder if she would have told a notable political figure to be sent out like that. Bar phones from court rooms entirely, not that you will accept ppl to come in with phones and then cry wolf for using that phone. Phones are not allowed in courts in western countries, well..I'm sure of the UK
ReplyDeleteNa becos she be white and an American ooooooo... dee
ReplyDeleteNigeria stepping up....loooool. If any pinch was inflicted on her skin eeehh USA would hv dealt with thousands of naijarians. #genevieve's secretary# #team I would rather be self made#
ReplyDeleteThat ajumogobia woman is a real bitch! I have had an encounter with her. She just likes to show herself and let everyone know that she has some kind of power. Unfortunately she can't control her husband's wandering eye. Foolish woman
ReplyDeleteSee naija o. God is still speaking . Engr Emy
ReplyDeleteAfter much pleading dey release her,but if it cums to our issue in dere country,no matter the plead,dey won't accept...nigeria be wise
ReplyDeleteSmart person! Our slave mentality is too deeply rooted. SAD!
DeleteAfter much pleading dey release her,but if it cums to our issue in dere country,no matter the plead,dey won't accept...nigeria be wise
ReplyDeleteSo, why the fuck is this news, this is the problem with Africans you feel whites are above the law in your own country.....Slavery mentality still crawls through your blood.
ReplyDeleteOlodo like you are allowed to do that in your country , every idiot tries to our country. People and it's laws for granted .
ReplyDeletePls she shld shut up...like she dares use d phone in the law court in her country...that she does not know is crappy reason...which law court in any country allows d use of cellphone....thanks to Justice OFili....who cares if shes white or black....
ReplyDeleteLOOL! Very good.
ReplyDeleteBitch, she will never try it in her country anuofia,

ReplyDeleteThe rules are the same in the US, and UK. When in court turn your damn phone off.
ReplyDeleteTough woman for a judge, kudos to Justice Ajumogobia.
ReplyDeleteBut how was the prison? Is it the same as the one in America?
ReplyDeleteCorrect.....let them knw that the rule shud also be adhered to in Naija....lets also try to build a system that works ....not just in the courtroom but the society at large
ReplyDeleteNa so na
ReplyDeleteWey pipul wey dey talk abt tribalism how unah go take describe dis one?
ReplyDeletehappy she showed remorse and apologized and I AM ALSO GLAD THE JUDGE punished her irrespective of where she is from plus come on!!!!!! you don't know using a cell phone is prohibited in court? that's insulting to say about Nigerian court, simply playing dumb
ReplyDeleteThe world power showing their strenght as usual. THIS IS YARDLEY!
ReplyDeletePeople should mind d language they use.Megan and her husband Andrew are very nice and unassuming people. They fight for human Rights and don't have to be in this country if they don't want to,but they chose to make d sacrifice.Please let's be careful how we use words.They are very humble and wonderful people .Thanks
ReplyDeleteShe knows the laws. Not ignorant at all.
ReplyDeleteLol.....this is interesting
ReplyDelete#TeamBlessed#
For only 20 mins???could a Nigerian here or abroad claim ignorance of such offense and be locked up for 20mins with the officials being nice to him as well?
ReplyDeleteThat was an incredibly disrespectful thing she did. It shows that she has absolutely no regard for Nigerian court. She know damn well she can't try that in any courtroom in her country. How silly of her. This is how they disrespect us, and when they reach America, they'll start telling lies about the country. 20 mins was not enough. They should have given her more time.
ReplyDeleteBut if it is in her country, they will treat you like shit! We need to stop glorifying these white people. Many of them do not respect us. I've sat in on a court session in her country before. You will think you were in the room with pure-bred monsters (plus judge and police). They are evil even to their own and especially to blacks and latinos. shitty people!
ReplyDeleteHow sick of the anti white comments I am. Why don't all you BLACK people whom she was helping rot. Alone you can't get anything sorted. Look at the country a total lawless mess, and disrespectful that is hilarious, it is just a phone
ReplyDeleteOde! As if she can try it iin front of a judge in america, black, white, yellow or red! Its more about the "superiority complex" for me than any colour rubbish
