The Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami has been lambasted by Senator Dino Melaye for the reinstatement of former head of the Presidential Task Force on Pension Reforms, Abdulrasheed Maina, who was declared wanted by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) on corruption charges.
Dino Melaye and Abubakar Malami
“It is pathetic. We should continue in sin and ask grace to abound? The AGF, time after time, has abused his office. Maina did not get himself back. We should talk about the integrity of the AGF and his office. If the number one law officer is breaking the law, where is the hope?”
“The AGF started with the forgery case against Saraki and Ekweremadu. Something happened we have not noticed. Two public officers had issues and the AGF chose to support the Inspector-General of Police against Senator Isa Hamman Misau. Today, it is Senator Isah versus the Federal Government.”
Tonto Dikeh threatens law suit over ‘edited video’ of fracas with ex-husband
Nollywood actress, Tonto Dikeh, has said she would sue any media platform or social blog that publishes an “edited video clip” set to be released by her ex-husband, Olakunle Churchill.
The actress through her lawyer, Festus Keyamo said the “edited video clip” showed Tonto’s reaction to the physical abuse suffered from Churchill and not Churchill’s role in the drama.
The statement from her lawyers threatened to sue publishers of the edited version as against the full version of the video that captured the whole fight.
Dikeh said the video only portrayed her as being violent and not a victim of domestic violence as she had earlier claimed.
The statement entitled ‘Imminent release of an edited video on Tonto Dikeh by ex-husband’ was signed for Festus Keyamo Chambers by Okechukwu Uju-Azorji and John Ainetor.
It read, “We act as solicitors to Miss Tonto Dikeh, a prominent Nollywood actress.
“It has come to our knowledge that her ex-husband, Mr. Olakunle Churchill has perfected plans to release a short and edited video depicting and portraying our client as being involved in some domestic violence against him.
“Our client wants all bloggers and/or journalists to request for the full version of the video showing the said domestic scene which started with a physical abuse of our client by her ex-husband, which earned her a swollen face.
“Her ex-husband only intends to release our client’s reaction to the assault on her and not the assault itself.
