Osinbajo, Fashola, other lawyers in Buhari’s cabinet ‘silent’ on SSS invasion of court, Sowore’s treatment

At least, six members of President Muhammadu Buhari’s cabinet, who are lawyers, have not publicly condemned the illegal detention of an activist, Omoyele Sowore, by the State Security Service . Majority of them have simply kept mum, publicly, on the matter.

Mr Sowore, who was arrested on August 3 by the SSS for planning a protest popularised with the hashtag #RevolutionNow, was granted bail for the second time on October 18.Justice Ijeoma Ojukwu on Thursday ordered that both men be released within 24 hours. None of the six lawyers in Mr Buhari’s cabinet has publicly condemned the disobedience of court orders generally including in the case of Mr Sowore or the desecration of the court on Friday in the bid to rearrest the activist.Yemi Osinbajo, the Vice President, is a Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Professor of law and until his inauguration as Vice President, a Senior Partner with SimmonsCooper Partners, a commercial law practice.

His legal career commenced in the law firm of Sofunde, Osakwe, Ogundipe and Belgore, where he started as a litigator in specialisations such as intellectual property and criminal law. In 1994 he established his own law practice firm Messrs Mustapha & Associates and served as its Principal Counsel until 2000. He later worked in another law firm Adriot Lex & Co. serving as Principal Consultant from 2000 to 2006.

When people live in falsehood long enough even there morality ,virtues and values will no longer sustain them. It's therefore dangerous to expect anything comely or good from them

Powerless pastors.... Working with devil

They are shamelessly observing table manners. You don't talk while eating.

Did DSS really invade court room

My VP is preparing for RCCG annual convention. He will talk lerra

Shame on these poor representatives of the Bar in Buhari's govt. They are Senior Advocate of the Naira. Useless bunch. In more civil climes, it is enough reason for all Lawyers in the cabinet to resign enmasse.

They were greatest pretenders, have they not been exposed now.

Invasion of court or drama in court.

The minister for state labour and productivity Festus Keyamo (SAN) has spoken .He remarks were Emphatic

osinbajo is silent because is one of those politicians that only want to enrich themself. His also a professor of nothing. Meanwhile Fashola is no more a lawyer. His now a full time politician who doesn't sees anything wrong in our justice system.

We are on national convention! We don't speak on anything political. We are with God now and must not associate any other thing with HIM

As far as we all know the Vice President knows the rule of law better and its process, he is not only a VP but an anointed Man so he is sensitive history don't have to repeat itself again, Heaven was nearly open when he sacked DSS oga back, we should always appreciate him.

Very very gullible to see thing as it is. Nobody is in support if their actions but things has to follow the nomal ways.

We all know what happened when the Vice President removed Daura the former DSS Boss, Osinbajo is the Vice president of the federal not AGN. My question to all the mischievous E-rats what do you what to hear from the VP? Its so unfortunate that some Nigerian's are very

When was the last time they were in court? 😂😂😂

They may not be silent but lamenting to their wives.

It is unfortunate tht mischief makers re trying 2 change narrative in order 2 blackmail their perceived political enemies. If there is anyone that should b appreciated 4 rule of law in this country, ProfOsinbajo should be d person. We were here whn Daura was removed 4 illegality

Dictatorship onboard

Bunch of hypocrites... Where is festus keyamo SAN nw the advocate of buhari... Or you are still reading from your archives to find the law that will justify dss actions

Some information seem to be missing regarding this sowore re-arrest

jharmo They, ProfOsinbajo tundefashola fkeyamo and all d SAN are silent because they are cowards and they afraid of the tyrant...

The prof is handicapped, confused and silenced . He dare not say a word.

They ProfOsinbajo tundefashola are deaf and blind to reality

Do u want the DSS to arrest them,lock them away for 15-18months then later charge them that 200k was found in their wallet? Hahahahah

Because they are hypocrites.

There's a new drug in Aso rock. It came from China. It's called silencer 500mg.

If they 'Silent'.. you can make comments on their behalf 😡😡 Aproko!

Thier actions or inactions rather clearly shows they are fully in support of what the DSS did or simply they don't have the balls to say shit.

Progressives don’t talk on archaic issues. They’ve progressed beyond that. Hypocrisy exalted!

These are big fools our nation ever produces

See No Evil. Speak No Evil. Hear No Evil. Shame on them all.....

Osinbanjo na ex pastor & prof. Fashola is confused while fkyamo na complete mumu

Wetin them mumu wan talk? They should talk and be sacked abi

These lawyers are yet to condemn or commend on this matter as they don't have the FACTS of the situation. Even Falana is yet to speak again after meeting with the DSS yesterday. I stand by FACTS not social media sensationalism.

Jubrin will remove them from office and send DSS after them.

Are u guys still maintaining this lie?

They are yet to condemn or commend the DSS because they are not aware of the FACTS of the case for which DSS re-arrested Sowore. As so also we. Even Sowores lawyer Falana is yet to speak after court yesterday. I await FACTS and not social media sensationalism.

They are all cowards.

He only come out when there is traders money to share or condolences visits

What do you want ProfOsinbajo and tundefashola to say, so you want them to jump into undecided issue and loss their job and salaries, u nor well, you better fight for your self and stop looking for who to fight for you o, yeyeh pipo.

Because they are idiots and hypocrites...Atenuje..

What do you want them to say? You want them to loose their jobs?

Do you want them to lose their precious and hard-earned jobs? Why are you like this?

I just pray at the end of this regime, ProfOsinbajo integrity and unblemished reputation will still remain intact, because the incivility of this 'kuruma in power' may eventually rub off negatively on both.

should they talk otherwise? Or talk in support - which kind talk can they talk , they already sold their soul.

But they are not thief that support corruption

It is very painful that Osubanjo and others don't want to condemned this animal attitude from president Buhari.

Osinbajo is a disgrace to the oduduwa region he Ben kicked out from as Vice President

ProfOsinbajo he is praying over it.

Cowards and slaves. Can’t find their way back to their legal profession: Gone too long to retreat. Poor souls

iam_alfred1 Birth rights have been sold, so they can't bite the hand that feeds them o!

What do you expect

You mean the VP Academics?

Hypocrisy........

Better headline should be------Osinbajo, Fashola, other COWARDS in Buhari’s cabinet ‘silent’ on SSS invasion of court, Sowore’s treatmen

Do house boy challenge his oga? SAN is now a title in Nigeria ND let all of them with that title continue to enjoy the title... Time will tell.😎

Buhari don collect all those one destiny.

I don’t expect any of them to comment on the issue at hand , because they are fools, how sure are we that they passed out of law school , professor my foot
