Government’s assault on rule of law


The Justice Reform Project (JRP) condemns the recent abominable invasion of a Nigerian courtroom by the Department of State Services (DSS) in a vicious, crude and unlawful bid to effect the unconstitutional re-arrest of human rights activist and journalist, Mr. Omoyele Sowore. On December 6, during a court session presided over by Justice Ijeoma Ojukwu of the Federal High Court, Abuja, officers of the DSS mounted a Gestapo style raid on the Nigerian judiciary, causing members of the public, lawyers and a sitting judge to flee for safety. In the ensuing mayhem, Mr. Sowore was physically dragged out of court by officers of the DSS and re-arrested under the guise of a failure to meet bail conditions. Thus, began a new dark and dangerous chapter in the decline of our nation-state and the recent series of affronts against the rule of law by the current administration.The abuse of power by public officials in Nigeria is an aberration which has attained notoriety as part of the fabric of our society. Both at home and abroad, this badge of shame stains our collective national consciousness and makes a daily mockery of our selective adherence to the rule of law. Nevertheless, this recent egregious display of executive lawlessness by the DSS in a Nigerian courtroom must give us all pause as we contemplate both how we have come to this and what steps next to take, both as individuals and as those who sit in positions of moral and legal authority in this country.
