PROTEST OVER N750,000 JUDGEMENT BEGINS

The National association of Nigerian Students, former member of the house, Honaurable Dino Melaye including prominent people joined in the protest yesterday against the judgement delivered by justice Abubakar Telba of the federal high court seated in Abuja, on the stolen Police pension fund by Director Yussuf. Yussuf was asked to forfeit his 32 landed properties in Abuja and Gombe and sentences to 2years imprisonment with an option of N750,000.

This controversial judgement was seen as a mockery to the entire nation especially the judiciary system. This led to bombardment of CJN office, Justice Alooma Mukhtar by the protesters. The Chief Justice of Nigeria (CJN), Justice Alooma Mukhtar, has promised that the National Judicial Council (NJC)  will look into the controversy surrounding the questionable judgement delivered by Justice Abubakar Talba of the Abuja High Court in the conviction of a self-confessed pension thief, Yakubu Yusufu.

Also, in the quest to get a true judgement, The EFCC has re-ordered a fresh arrest of the formal director. He was re -arraigned before the court yesterday and was asked to be remanded at Kuje prison till tommorrow, March 1st,  when the trial would commence newly.
