The Conference of Nigeria Political Parties has urged the Inspector General of Police, Muhammed Adamu to immediately order the release of Barrister Ikenga Ugochinyere, insisting that his arrest and continued detention were in clear violation of a subsisting court order.
A statement signed by the CNPP Secretary General, Chief Willy Ezugwu on Friday also noted that the arrest and detention amount to another attempt by Nigerian lawmakers to decimate the judiciary.“On Thursday evening the news broke on the gestapo style arrest of the CUPP spokesman, Ikenga Imo Ugochinyere to the shock of the Conference on Nigeria Political Parties .
“It was even more disgraceful to learn that the arrest was in connection with an instigation by Speaker Femi Gbajabiamila, who is supposed to be a defender of the rule of law, knowing that the 3rd June 2020 order of the Federal Capital Territory High Court restraining the Police and the SSS from arresting or detaining Ugochinyere is yet to be vacated.
