Ruling, tribunal’s Chairman, Justice Ibrahim Sirajo struck out the motion and ordered Ewhrudjakpo’s appearance on Thursday.
It said Ewhrudjakpo allegedly effected the first alteration before writing to the NYSC on April 4, 2019 to effect another alteration, which was carried out last year. “Furthermore, the agency disclosed that the ‘O’ in the COE on Annexure 3 had bee tampered with to read ‘D’ EWHRUDJAKPA instead of EWHRUOJAKPA.
The DSS also wondered why the Bayelsa Deputy Governor only chose to write the NYSC on April 4, 2019 for the correction of a supposed typographical contained in the certificate issued in 1998 .*The typographical error was made about twenty-one years ago and since then subject did not deem it fit to correct it until an 4th April, 2019;
Supreme Court will claim immunity again 😂😂😂😂
