Nigerian lawyer and human rights activist, Prof Chidi Odinkalu has taken to his official X account on Saturday to react after spotting the President of the Appeal Court, Monica Dongban Mensem with the former governor of Rivers state and Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nyesom Wike.
According to Chidi Odinkalu, the moment was captured at an event that was held at the IBB Golf Club. He said this is coming hours after the PDP candidate in the Edo State governorship election, Asue Ighodalo headed to the Court of Appeal.
Chidi Odinkalu described the presence of the FCT Minister at the gathering as judicial malpractice.
He said the former governor of Rivers state was not supposed to attend the event because there are cases in court.
According to Chidi Odinkalu on his official X account;
“The week after curious Supreme Court decision in which he had interest, Nyesom Wike was in Calabar with judge who read lead opinion. Now, hours after Edo State election petition tribunal case, he shows up beside the judge who’ll constitute the appeal panel”.
