An Abuja Area Court, on Wednesday, ordered the Department of State Security to investigate the allegation of forgery of a National Youth Service Corps certificate leveled against the Deputy Governor o

f Bayelsa State, Lawrence Ewhrudjakpo.

He was inaugurated alongside the state governor, Duoye Diri, following February 14, 2020, judgement of the Supreme Court nullifying the victory of the All Progressives Congress and its candidates in the last governorship election in the state. The judge presiding over the case, Abubakar Sadiq, had on November 27, 2019, issued a bench warrant for the arrest of Ewhrudjakpo following his absence from the court for the day’s proceedings.

Responding, the judge noted that the police ought to have reported back to the court if the Wuye Division was unable to handle the case before taking the unilateral decision of transferring the case to the IGP monitoring unit.

You can't go into another Man's house through the back door, and eatup his hot rice from the fire,expecting the rice to be cold in your stomach, it will purge you.

You can imagine our politicians forging certificates while we graduate with the genuine certificate are yet to secure a job . Nigeria is really a joke.

The guy that court even dismissed his candidacy no agency arrested him for the offense it’s the PDP deputy now they ordered to investigate,so is that the end of a guy convicted by Supreme Court to forged certificates is free without any punishment?

Fraudsters making laws. 😅😅🤣🤣🤣🤣 Tell me who's more Yahoo... Eyin wayre

Injustice. If Bayelsa APC governor could be sacked for his deputy's mistakes, then same punishment should be meted down to the PDP governor.

Is probing not supposed to be before judgement ? What if the probe says the certificates are not forged ?

Good, it's about time..

😂😂😂

All this our politicians self,they are not helping the country called Nigeria.

Do they have to tell the agency involved before the probe him

What goes around is coming around 🤣
