BREAKING: Two Hight Courts Tackle Each Other Over Ifeanyi Ubah’s Release

There is confusion on the release Ifeanyi Ubah’s of managing director of Capital Oil and Gas, Dr Ifeanyi Ubah from Department of State Service (DSS) detention.

A Federal High Court sitting in Lagos state, on Thursday, May 25, ordered the DSS him within 48 hours.

NaijaNews.com learnt that Justice Mohammed in a 100 page judgment, ordered the DSS to release Ubah, if it fails to file a charge against him.

Ubah was arrested by DSS over an alleged oil deal with the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC).

The court also blasted DSS for lying that Ubah was arrested in Abuja, while from every available evidence, he was arrested in Lagos and flown to Abuja, where he has been detained for weeks.

Similarly, a High Court of the Federal Capital Territory sitting at Jabi, on Thursday, granted the DSS the nod to hold Ubah, for another 14 days, Vanguard reports.

Justice Yusuf Halilu extended the detention order following an ex-parte application filed by DSS through its lawyer Mr. G.O.A. Agbadua.

However, Ubah’s lawyer, Mrs Ifeoma Esom has filed a fresh application asking the court to compel the DSS to release her client on bail.
