The APGA chief and others are being prosecuted by the police at the Abuja court.
There was mild drama, on Monday, at the premises of the Federal Capital Territory High Court in Bwari, Abuja, as the factional Chairman of the All Progressives Grand Alliance , Edozie Njoku, was arrested by the Nigerian police.
“I asked him what have I done, he said he was a very dangerous man. He said he was the reason why Director, Litigation of Supreme Court, Mr Dikko, was removed and dismissed. Responding, the APGA factional chairman admitted exchanging pleasantries with Mr Rinamsomte earlier in the day.“My lord, I only said that anybody in this case, who lied against me to go to jail or send anyone to prison by telling lie, calamity will befall that person,” he said.
And after it was not opposed by the defence counsel, Panam Ntui, Justice Madugu, granted the prayer, and the 1st prosecution witness, Godwin Odu, the Deputy National Secretary of APGA, gave his testimony. “The prosecutor made a terrible claim against me and he has already brought policemen to arrest me. That is their Option B.
NAN reports that Mr Njoku was later released at the police station after Mr Rinamsomte withdrew the case.
