When I saw this post from this Obidiot Chijioke, I knew this is not true. So I reached out to a friend, who is one of the engineers working on this project & he denied it outrightly. According to him, the project has been sectionalised, and it has never stopped since it started. As seen in the videos below, Section2,3,4 and 5 are at 90% completion, while sections 1, 6, 7, 8, & 9 are ongoing, also almost 60% completed. Bury your empty head filled with alcohol and fake soft drinks in shame.

📌Press Statement By The NBA President

BAIL CONDITIONS SHOULD NOT UNDERMINE THE ESSENCE OF BAIL

In recent times, we have observed with growing concern a disturbing trend in the administration of criminal justice in Nigeria, where courts and law enforcement agencies, including the Nigeria Police Force, EFCC, ICPC, and other security agencies, increasingly impose bail conditions that are excessive, impractical, and difficult to satisfy.

The frequent insistence on sureties who are senior civil servants of specified grade levels, coupled with demands for landed properties of extraordinary value, has in many cases transformed bail from a mechanism for securing attendance at trial into a tool of pretrial detention.

The consequence is that many persons who are constitutionally presumed innocent and have ostensibly been granted bail remain incarcerated because the conditions attached to their release are beyond their reach. This troubling development undermines the constitutional right to personal liberty, weakens the presumption of innocence, and defeats the very essence and purpose of bail within our criminal justice system.

We consider it necessary to reiterate that bail is a constitutional safeguard designed to secure the attendance of an accused person at trial while preserving his or her liberty pending the determination of guilt or innocence. It is neither a punishment nor a mechanism for imposing pre-trial incarceration by indirect means. The law is settled that bail conditions must be reasonable, practical, and capable of being fulfilled by the accused person.

The Supreme Court, in Suleman & Anor v. Commissioner of Police, Plateau State (2008), emphasized that the object of bail pending trial is to grant pre-trial freedom to an accused person whose appearance in court can be secured through appropriate conditions. Bail is not intended to create insurmountable obstacles that make release impossible.

We are particularly concerned by the increasing tendency to impose conditions that are disconnected from prevailing economic realities and often impossible to satisfy. Conditions requiring sureties who are serving civil servants on specific salary grades, ownership of landed properties of extraordinary value, or other burdensome requirements effectively convert the grant of bail into a denial of bail.

Of particular concern is the continued insistence in some cases on sureties who must be senior civil servants, often on Grade Levels 16 or 17, and who must own properties worth hundreds of millions of naira. Such conditions have been strongly criticised by the appellate courts.

In Dasuki v. Director-General, State Security Service & Ors (2019) LPELR-49182 (CA), the Court of Appeal unequivocally condemned the practice of involving serving public officers as a mandatory category of sureties. The Court observed that such requirements are unknown to civilised legal systems and run contrary to public service regulations. The Court further noted that expecting a public servant on Grade Level 16 to own property worth N100 million would not only be unrealistic but could also conflict with public service rules and anti-corruption objectives.

The Administration of Criminal Justice Act, 2015, is equally clear on this issue. Section 165(1) provides that while the grant and conditions of bail are within the discretion of the court, such conditions must not be excessive. Judicial discretion, though wide, must always be exercised judiciously, reasonably, and in a manner consistent with constitutional guarantees.

We therefore restate that bail conditions must be tailored solely to ensure attendance at trial. They must never serve as instruments of punishment prior to conviction. Conditions that cannot be met amount in substance to a refusal of bail and contribute directly to pre-trial detention and congestion in correctional facilities.

After doctors informed him of the cost of his surgery, he broke down in tears, saying that in his 58 years of life, he had never held as much as N50,000 at once.

This man, Malam Lauwali Umar Makarfi, is in a heartbreaking situation.

He is currently unable to urinate on his own, whether day or night, and must be taken to the hospital because of a bladder condition known medically as bladder outlet obstruction/prostatic hyperplasia (enlarged prostate).

He is presently admitted at Manaal Specialist Hospital, located at No. C5 Zangon Aya Road, Kawo, Kaduna.

We are appealing to kind-hearted individuals to assist this servant of Allah with the cost of his surgery, which amounts to N534,000.

Dear @icpcnigeria

Nothing must happen to @elrufai in your custody

Remember every person involved in the travails of Mallam @elrufai will give account no matter how long it takes and no immunity will save such persons on the day of reckoning

The activities of this regime in a democracy is reminiscent to what obtains under area boys culture

This is a clear abuse of power something never seen in the history of Nigeria even during the military interregnum

One thing is sure, this will never break the resilience of @elrufai because he will come out of this stronger

This regime must free Mallam immediately

There are some very powerful people pulling the strings behind the scenes on this legal issue over airtime lending in Nigeria, trying to stick their straw into a market worth an estimated N400b annually.  These people are close to the president, and are wielding tremendous power and distorting the entire economy in ways that would have embarrassed a post-Soviet Russian oligarch in 1994.

I’ve been actively aware of this matter for over two years now and the time may have come to tell the full story of how Idris Saliu Alubankudi, and his brother Shamsudeen Saliu 'Shamz' Alubankudi - both very close to Bola Tinubu and his family - have built one of the biggest and most powerful state corruption enterprises
in the entire history of Nigeria.

These men are attempting to capture the systemically important foundations of the entire Nigerian economy - specifically telecoms and ICT - and turn their 3 year-old corruption enterprise into a sort of Nigerian chaebol. You have never seen anything like it before.

You will be hearing the names 'Idris' and 'Shamz' a lot in the coming few days. Also don’t forget their family name 'Saliu Alubankudi.' It's an important part of the story.

I saw an interview with someone that was once kidnapped by BH and later by Bandits.

When he was asked about the experience he said the difference between BH and bandits is like a professor and a stark illitrate.

He said BH gave them food and kept them in cells to bring them out for preaching or work and take them back to cells , they were just prisoners, he said bandits treated them like animals, they were tied and blindfolded most times and beaten daily, they do not pray or even allowed to defecate from distance , some were tied to trees.

Very terrible experience he had.
