Rivers rerun: Court restrains Military from deploying soldiers

Rivers State High Court sitting in Port Harcourt  on Wednesday   restrained the Chief of Defence Staff, the Brigade Commander of Amphibious Brigade and the Chief of Army Staff,  from deploying  military  operatives  for the re-run elections.

In a ruling delivered  by Justice George Omereji in a suit filed by the PDP Chairman, Bro Felix Obuah and the PDP, the Court ordered: "That an order of interim order be made and is hereby made restraining , Chief of Defence Staff, Chief of Army Staff, Brigade Commander, 2nd Amphibious Brigade, whether by themselves, their agents, servants, officers and operatives or privies from interfering with the applicants right to freely participate in the  government of Nigeria either directly or through free chosen representatives, threatens to arrest, harass, intimidate, torture , incancerate the applicants and their  members  during  the rerun elections for the State and National Assembly  on  19th March,  2016".

The Court based its judgment on the judgment by the  Appeal Court in the  case between the APC versus and others in 2015 detailing the non involvement of the Army and the Armed Forces  in elections.

Justice  Omereji  ordered that the PDP  has the responsibility  to  serve the judgment  on the Military for them to  comply.

"Leave be and is hereby granted the applicants to issue and serve the originating  motion of the jurisdiction of this Honorable court for service on the  Chief of Defence Staff, Chief of Army Staff and the Brigade Commander of Second Amphibious Brigade and INEC at the Federal Capital Territory, FCT", Justice Omereji said.

  6. Politically obtained ruling. what jurisdiction does the State High COurt have over the Nigerian Army and its operations? This Justice Omereji is just making himself a tool in the hands of Wike... Disgrace would soon catch up with him

  7. So PDP and Wike will be able to unleash mayhem on the people just like they did during the last General election.

  15. The PDP is going to court to stop soldiers so they can kill more. Haven't they killed enough already? God will surely disgrace all these ogboni, bloodthirsty people we have in the state.

  18. If the soldiers pull back, that election should be cancelled because of the amount of lives that those killers will waste. May God deliver my state from evil people.

  22. Good news because during the presidential election, a court restrained GEJ from deploying the military and he obeyed! So I now expect the APC to obey this judgement because we do not want wat happened in Bayelsa to repeat itself in my darling Rivers state
