A former Registrar of the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, Prof. Dibu Ojerinde, has sued the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission for alleged unlawful arrest.
The News Agency of Nigeria reports that Ojerinde, in a suit marked, FHC/ABJ/CS/179/2023, filed before Justice Obiora Egwuatu, is seeking an order to enforce his fundamental rights, following his re-arrest on January 26 on the court premises and his subsequent detention.
This was due to the governorship and state Assembly election break embarked upon by the judges of the Federal High Court.
The ex-JAMB boss is standing trial of alleged diversion of public funds to the tune of N5bn with 18 counts of money laundering.
The matter, which was listed on Monday’s case list was stalled due to the break.
