(Onitsha Nigeria, 14^th December 2015)-The leadership of International Society for Civil Liberties & the Rule of Law (Intersociety); supported by other ten members of the Southeast based Coalition of Human Rights Organizations (SBCHROs) have dragged Hon Justice Adeniyi Ademola of Court Six of the Federal High Court, Abuja Division to the National Judicial Council (NJC) through its chairman, Hon Justice Mahmud Mohammed (CJN); over his unsatisfactory and unconstitutional roles in consideration and issuance of a highly controversial and unconstitutional order for perpetual detention of Citizen Nnamdi Kanu in the guise of “investigating him for offenses of terrorism and terrorism financing”. We also wrote the Attorney General of the Federation & Minister for Justice, Mallam Abubakar Malami, SAN, drawing his immediate attention to the gross inconsistency of Section 27 (1) of the Terrorism Prevention Act of 2011 as amended; with Section 35 (4) (a) (b) of the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, under right to personal liberty; for the purpose of sending an executive bill to the National Assembly for immediate repealing or expunging of the unconstitutional provision in the said Terror Act of 2011 as amended.

Hall Of Infamy Award: Southeast Human Rights Coalition Names DSS As Chief Enemy Of Democracy & Rule Of Law In Nigeria For 2015

(Onitsha Nigeria, 7^th November 2015)-

The Coalition of Southeast Human Rights Organizations operating in the Southeast Nigeria wishes to alert Nigerians and the international community concerning the unconstitutional resurrection of Nigerian State Security Decree 2 of 1984 (Detention of Persons Without Trial); otherwise called Decree No 2 of 1984, which allows for indefinite and incommunicado detention of Nigerian citizens without recourse to competent and diligent judicial process. Also unconstitutionally resurrected with Decree No. 2 of 1984 is another obnoxious and anti democracy decree called Decree No.4 of 1984 (Public Officers Protection against False Accusation); extensively used to arrest and clamp media practitioners into indefinite and incommunicado detention for publishing reports deemed inimical to the interests of members of the ruling military brigandage or cabal. The two infamous decrees were promulgated in 1984 by the current sixth civilian President of Nigeria, Retired Major Gen Muhammadu Buhari when he served as Nigeria’s post Second Republic maximum military ruler.
