A Federal High Court in Lagos has ordered the Federal Government and the Nigerian police to pay suspended Central Bank Governor, Sanusi Lamido Sanusi, N50million as exemplary damages for unlawfully detaining him and seizing his passport on February 20th. The court also asked the police to immediately return his passport and warned them against arresting or harassing him again.

ReplyDeleteThis is embarrassing. FG needs to get it's acts together. You cannot make allegations without substantive evidence and expect to win a case in the court.
ReplyDeletePEANUTS TO HIM...WUNT BE LIKE BABA SUWE WHO WE FELT DON HAMMER...BT THEY'VE REFUSD TO PAY...SO SAD
ReplyDeleteWell this Certainly is going to be interesting, because the FG and the Police will appeal the court's Decision. Can't wait to follow the ensuing drama. Hahahahahah
ReplyDeleteIn modern business,you not only fear a crook,you should also fear an honestman that doesn't know what he's doing.
ReplyDeleteGEJ acts before he thinks.

ReplyDeleteChoi ! 3 gbosas 4 dis guy.....weda he is at fault or nt, dis is a man who knows hw to play balls......
ReplyDeleteNo wonder 1 useless joke i saw on fb says, who is d president of Nigeria n d students ansad lamido sanusi...hehehe
Abeggy! Which N50M? So that he will go and give more money to boko haram. This judge must must drunk to deliver that kind of judgment. So if someone is a suspect of a crime under investigation, he should not be invited for questioning? Nonsence!
ReplyDeleteGo and read the details you will find out they only accused him wrongly for the boko haram issue they forge document to rope him
DeleteI taya oh! What nonsense.... Money wey fit better 50lives na hin dem wan give one idiot... Sey wetin na.. The wan wey Dey hin acc neva reach ni.. Na Nigeria dey destroy Nigeria oh!

ReplyDeletePro and Anti Sanusi &GEJ i hell you people..Nigerian passport property of the government,Sanusi public office holder,SSS,Police public institutions...why all these fight?Am more concerned about the alleged non-remittance of the $10Billion,$6Billion,$4Billion whichever is missing..But someone must answer for the feeding lunch money that stood for over N2.3Billion for just 190 police men,someone must answer for Billions misused on renovations of non-government properties.I don't care who did what and where but money due to the nation must be accounted for...
ReplyDeleteNawa oh,see ow they are misusing funds,smh,money thats supposed to be used for the poor,aWON oLORIBURUKU
ReplyDeleteAll these kangaroo courts and judges. Mtswwwee
ReplyDeleteFor what? Am sure that judge is one of the sponsors of Boko haram
ReplyDeleteAm sure the Judge is Sanusi,s friend,who has eaten from bribe
ReplyDeleteKudos to him, dis should teach 9ja police sensible lessons, to b more civilized in handling such personality. Not guilty until proven guilty!!!
ReplyDeleteAPC judge in Lagos! If he committed crime why can't he be investigated, harassed or even detained. Let Oduah go and get his own injunction there too.
ReplyDeleteAnya Ikenga, exactly. But first u must have some sort of evidence of the person's involvement. U cannot just detain or harass someone based on ur feelings or because u don't like the person. And by the way, Stella Oduah is female and therefore cannot get "his" anything.
DeleteFor what infact we are nt save in dis country. Crime is growing every day $ no wl talk
ReplyDeleteNaija sef! And the man that stole a phone was jailed one year,Naija lo wa.smh.
ReplyDeletewhat a waste of money
ReplyDeleteThe 50 million will soon finish because he is going to share it his Boko Haram boys. Ole buruku.
ReplyDeleteam so lovin dis 4 once smbdy is standin up against our corupt govt & is gettin JUSTICE
ReplyDeleteOMG! N50M for damages only! There has to be other things involved. not just damages alone.
ReplyDeleteCoolDiva speaks!
As I would always say people should always be informed and not just be quick to passing judgement. He was granted 50million as damages yes it depends on what the counsel asks for and since the counsel to the federal government reused to do their job well as counsels he was granted. Secondly he was detained unlawfully which is a breach to his fundamental human right. So the court has the jurisdiction to issue such against the federal government. All these are just measures to deter people from doing the wrong thing despite the fact that it sounds absurd because of the amount of money involved and because of the parties involved. In conclusion a High Court cannot go below 10 million to award as damages as magistrate Court have Jurisdiction of up to 10million so from 10million and above would be that of a High Court and considering the persons involved it had to go that High.
ReplyDeleteThank u!

ReplyDeleteeh hen! When money talks, bullshit walks. When there are thousands of Nigerians that are harassed everyday and detained unlawfully for months, even years.
ReplyDeleteTrust me when i say that the judge has a share in that loot.
Shame on our legal system. shammmmmmmeeeeeeeee........
Arrant nonsense! The compensation ought to be atleast 5 Billion Naira.

Yu ll first send Jonathan to the grave before the 50 million. See this liar from birth
ReplyDeleteAm very sure that the Judge that delivered this judgement will be suspended by NJC. This is travesty of Justice.
ReplyDeleteAnything is possible under the judgement of an APC judge. 50m or no 50m sanusi is just a disgrace . Is he the first to be CBN governor carrying himself like obama. He got too power hungry and it landed him where he is. To me I prefer to beat u up and pay hospital bill after. The point remains I beat u. He should go n sleep. He is irrelevant. Next gist jo
ReplyDelete257thousand was missing in my place of work in dopemu I was taken to agor police station for question,when they ask the boy who brought the money he said no one was in shop when he kept the money the police told my boss that the case is not mine that I shld call someone to bail me wit 20thousand
ReplyDeleteI so much love dis Judgment so sweet awwww
ReplyDeleteDis country will not cease to amaze me.paying 50,000,000 as damages when no money to buy diesel to fuel a government owned hospital's generator,imagine me using kerosine lantern to take a woman's delivery during labor.Nigeria ti tan,mtscheeeeeew,oshisco
ReplyDeleteThat's the Law
ReplyDeleteThat's the law. Fair judgment
ReplyDeleteOh really? Which kangaroo court is that? Boko harram court? What of all the money he stole?!
ReplyDeleteUna go hear am Hot.... FG nd CO
ReplyDeleteNigerians should watch this man...Mallam Sanusi Lamido Sanusi. A lot of shallow minded Nigerians are just posting comments of no substance just commenting sake. He is sowing evil seed that will do this Nation no good and some fickle minded fellows are making Jokes/ Politics of the whole nonsense . While I am not an advocate of the uncivilized approach of the Nigerian Police Force, we should call a spade a spade. How many Nigerians have recieved justice as fast as this? Why did we not recieve the answers to his Audit Queries in this swift manner?
ReplyDeleteWhy N50m? Is he the first to go to court this type of detention by the NPF? Let us be wise.
@haywizzle if the money is not paid the trial wont go on as his counsel would continue to ask for the money. And until the money is paid the court cannot move on.
ReplyDeletepatiently waiting for part 2
ReplyDeleteI am so sure this case will get to supreme court. Thats where d real legal politice takes place. So sure FG will not pay a dime. Welcome to Nigeria.
ReplyDeleteA federal high court in Lagos!hmmm God is watching you o,50m for ordinary arrest and passport seizure?has he bin cleared of all d allegations against him?dis is a joker like Jose Mourinho of Chelsea(my defenders are jokers).this nonsense should stop,someone is accused of mismanagement if our fund and a court in Lagos giving judgement for arrest,what of dose dat lost dere jobs in banking sector,what of intercon bank he bought?where did he see d money?I see dis coming,bet me by May Sanusi Lamido will join APC like Hell Rufai and FFK etc.God ll deliver us from all dis judges dat deliver dis kind of judgement within 1{1/2}myths,no recess ni?Aluu boys never get judgement o since 2yrs o.God is watching u o
ReplyDelete50 million? Na wa oooooo
ReplyDeleteSanusi would never see that money in Jesus name. 50M for what!!! When they killed Lloyd tekena and ugonna who ordered what ehn? When they detain thousands of people and almost beat them to death and even kill them sometimes who ordered what.that court must be stupid and all its judges mentally deranged. Rubbish!!!!! Oh because its sanusi abi? E maa worry o ma duro be yen fun 50M awon omo oshi jati jati.may GOd judge the people that hold power in this country.. What nonsense did they beat sanusi ehn, did they even handcuff him. So because of ceased passport abi? What of all the ceased lives, did they order anyone to give them back. Olorun ma mu awon eniyan to ti baje! Ahhhhnnnn kini?? The ecobank worker that just died did anybody pay his family, was there even a court hearing? Ejo mo ti binu! Mo ti Koran ju! Jesus Christ would not let him see that money.50M that can be used to improve health care or any other sector, they would be paying a thief and a corrupt human being like sanusi.oshi! He shall not see
ReplyDeletethat money.olorun maje ( I spit kelembe).Linda odabo mo ti so ju.
So Sanusi went to Justice Ibrahim Buba(the judge that gave Odili and Ibori perpetual injunction)to get a similar judgement and 50million naira.Sanusi should be ashamed of himself,he wants 50million ,what about the 37billion that was awarded to Odi which he refused to pay?
ReplyDelete4 what?Let the judge,sanusi go to hell with their APC judgement afterall his in lagos.kobo he won‘t get better accept yu faith now,EFCC do yu work,criminal&terrorist
ReplyDeleteThis useless Sanusi 50M no oooo make them no try am
ReplyDeleteThis JUDGE must be probed for this biased ruling!
ReplyDeletesanusi took it so soft with this kind of case of sponsoring BH,imagine hw can a reasonable govt like this gej n family accused somebody without a reasonable evidence,if i was sanusi,i would hv take the case to international court. I said and i will continue saying,gej govt is the most poor govt we ever had in nigeria,every na story.no light,no security,uneployment is increasing everyday,still madam finance will come with paper story.poor govt i said.
ReplyDeleteThis things...Only in Nigeria?
ReplyDeleteObey this court order, they will not.
ReplyDeleteLet them all -ogas at the top- batter themselves. That's the only fun I get when it comes to their issues.
ReplyDeleteThis is all setup. Sanusi and Jonathan...Legal way to pay money out without people saying missing money. Who has ever sued FG and won the case. Wakeup they are looking for money all possible way for 2015 election. Mind you all the money will be paid and sent to Jona.
ReplyDeleteCanadian Tush
rubbish na him papa get CBN? Tunda fire both FG n SANUSI
ReplyDeleteOga oooo.......how can one get to dat top sef. its sweet there oooo. 50mila
ReplyDeleteI guess dese fundamental human rights are only experienced by people at d top. We see u guys.....
