Activist drags Chairman of NBA Benin branch

I am waiting for Barrister Edo Osagie who has been sending people to beg me since. He is now writing me. I am not afraid, I speak the truth and he cannot stop me.

I am disappointed over the action of the Chairman of the Nigeria Bar Association (NBA), Benin branch, who has not treated my complain. He is busy writing me to apologise to him and pay for damages. Edo-Osagie has failed to resign from NBA Chairmanship position when he knows he holds appointments with the Edo State Government and has also made the NBA weak and too quiet.

His weakness makes Department of State Services (DSS) ooeratives to assault Barrister Douglas Ogbankwa and many lawyers are now laughing stocks. What does this man mean? Is it not true that the NBA lawyers are now surety in Economic and Financial Crimes Commission(EFCC)? Lawyers are called by EFCC to come and bail Yahoo boys and share money.

Edo Osagie cannot close my mouth when I know what I am saying and a human right fighter. He should be praising me for assisting him to sit up. He is too weak. This man attacked me and insulted my family in the social media. I am a successful man with good business but show me your business which you inherit and have collapsed.

I will not take it man. You attacked my family for giving you advice and telling you that you should join us to fight oppression and injustice. Lawyers are respected people and I love many of them like Gani Fawehinmi, Femi Falana and Olisa Agbakoba.

Why will the NBA in Edo State, that have many people who are good, elect this man who went to a politician’s house to tell her that NBA will defend her in the tribunal. This is a shame and disgrace.

When the politician loses the case in the tribunal and the other candidate who wins celebrates and laugh NBA.

Edo Osagie should not make me angry. Let him resign he does not know what to do. He should go and face the problems in the DSS and EFCC and leave my family alone.

I am waiting for him and will face him in court for this craze of attacking my family because I am telling him the truth.
