Distinguished Colleagues,
Sequel to the detention of Rickey Tarfa SAN at the weekend he has
filed a fundamental rights application for N2.5 Billion and for the release of
his two phones and SUV Benz. He said he wanted the phones to delete the data
and stored items. He should have just said he wanted the phones back his property period,
stating that it’s in order to delete data? What to say? You have a SUV and two phones
impounded by the prosecutor who now files charges that Mr Tarfa’s call logs
showed he was communicating with the Hon. Justice Yunusa of the Federal High
Court Lagos. The said Judge had handled some lawsuits that Mr Tarfa was counsel.
Learned Ladies and Learned Gentlemen, you may recall that during the
tenure of Hon. Justice Mariam Aloma Mukhtar, CJN GCON some Judges in the habit
of communicating with some lawyers over cases were sacked for crass mis-conduct
and corrupt practices. You all know Hon. Justice Mariam Aloma Mukhtar the first
female Chief Justice of Nigeria was tagged "Hurricane Mukhtar" for her sweeping reforms. At her retirement 2014 in
Sheraton Abuja all celebrated her
achievements.
Meanwhile NJC has queried the Hon. Justice Yunusa for the
reasons stated in paragraph 1 above. Who is the complainant, Mrs Abdou against
whom Mr Tarfa’s client allegedly forged corporate documents.
Recalling that Chief Ladi Williams SAN and his
Brothers once fought over their late Dad, FRA’s estate and one accused the other of forgery of documents and they
had a real big dispute couldn't celebrate life after the Doyen of the Nigerian Bar.
Best,
