DSS DENIED US ACCESS TO NNAMDI KANU

UPDATE ON OUR ABORTED ROUTINE VISIT TO OUR INDEFATIGABLE  CLIENT - ONYENDU  MAZI NNAMDI KANU BY THE LAWLESS DEPARTMENT OF STATE SERVICES (DSS) AT THEIR ABUJA HEADQUARTERS:

Consistent with our routine, we were at the DSS Headquarters today, to  observe the Court-Ordered visit to our dear Client - Onyendu Mazi Nnamdi Kanu. But, for the second time since after the last court sitting, we were bluntly denied access to our Client by the personnel of the DSS. 

This development is appalling and condemnable because there was no plausible reason(s) proffered for this violent affront to a Court Order.

Recall that the Order made by His Lordship, Hon. Justice Binta Nyako guiding our routine visits to our Client - Onyendu Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, is unequivocal and clear that these visits should be conducted on Mondays and Thursdays between the hours of 2:00PM and 4:00PM.

During our visit to Onyendu last week Thursday, being the 17th day of February 2022, in observance of this Court sanctioned visit, the personnel of the DSS turned us back, insisting that the officials assigned to receive us were not available. 

The same flimsy reason was given today, 21st February 2022, for denying us access to Onyendu, in deliberate and flagrant disobedience to Court Orders.

With the foregoing, if the Chief Registrar of the Federal High Court Abuja, fails and/or refuses to endorse the relevant contempt forms filed against the Director General of the DSS for the gross disobedience to positive Orders of Court, as he has done in the past, then, it will become obvious to the world that the Registrar of the Federal High Court Abuja, is actively protecting the contemnors. 

Orders of Court must be obeyed to the letter and must not only be respected, but must be treated with sanctity. Sadly, this has become a joke taken too far!

We therefore, wish to use this medium to place the World on Notice that the DSS should be held responsible should anything untoward happen to our Client - Onyendu Mazi Nnamdi Kanu during this period they are hoarding him from us.

We shall continue to keep the World abreast of every unfolding events as the DSS continue to thread on this ignominious path.

Thank you all and remain blessed UMUCHINEKE.
