 The Federal High Court seating in Lagos has struck out the illegal possession of firearms charges against the suspended Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN, Gavna, Gadwin and Mierfele by the federal government. Justice Nicolas O'Weibel gave the order on Thursday, following the application of Mohammed Abu Bakr, the director of public persecutions in the Ministry of Justice, to withdraw the two-count charge. Abu Bakr relied on section 108 of the Administration of Criminal Justice Act 2015. Mierfele's counsel, J.B. Doldu, had argued that the prosecution could not withdraw the charge unless the government first purges itself of its disobedience to the court's July 25th order granting Mierfele 20 million-dollar bill. The D.S.S. was formed to look at internal security. Handle matters that borders on internal security, terrorism. We expected that the charges would reflect terrorism-count charges. Unfortunately, or surprisingly, what we saw was matter bordering on procurement that he gave contract for the award of Land Cruisers. Gentlemen, this is a charade.
