“Though, we believe in the santity of the court, but the judge erred in his judgement and we know the appeal court will correct the error.

The plaintiff decried the alleged presence of members of the various drivers union and thugs, who were mobilised to the court, but notwithstanding
“I want to maintain that we are a peace loving citizens that believe in rule of law and assure our supporters that the Appeal Court will eventually do justice to the case.
“We are capable of defending ourselves against thugs through legal means and miscreants, as we have on authority that Government is sponsoring thugs to attack my person.
“Though, am not moved, but need to say without fear that I will not standby and watch. If they are planning to set Ekiti on fire, that will be their prerogative, but it will be adviseable that they allow justice to prevail. “
