Cross River State Government and Agba Jalingo. Justice Amobeda referred the case file to the administrative judge of the division, Justice Sule Shuaibu for reassignment.
He said the accusations made therein were “erroneous” and “a fiction of the imagination of the deponent” as they were not supported by any material evidence. The Justice held that the annexures to the further affidavit deposed to by Olumide-Fusika and dated November 19, 2019 were electronic generated evidence that did not meet the requirements of section 84 subsection 2 of the evidence act 2011 and were therefore expunged as prayed by the prosecution counsel, Dennis Tarhemba in his counter affidavit.
On recusing himself, Justice Amobeda who held that it is the administrative judge of the division that assigns cases and that this was assigned to him, said it was only proper, given the attention accorded the case by the media which according to him, in comments after the ruling, were untrue, he will refer the case back to the administrative judge, Justice Shuaibu.
