Nnamdi Emeh Accuses Deputy Court Registrar For Demanding N1million To Process His Bail

Nigerian whistleblower, Nnamdi Emeh, who exposed an alleged organ trafficking ring in the Anambra State Command of Nigerian Police Force has petitioned the Chief Judge of the Federal High Court in Abuja over his continued incarceration despite court granting him bail.

Emeh in the petition dated October 3, 2023, through his Counsel, Justus Ijeoma accused the Deputy Chief Registrar, Federal High Court in Awka, Nkem Mba, of alleged “unprofessional conduct” in processing his bail because his family could not pay N1 million she allegedly demanded as gratification to process the bail.

The prosecuting agency, also accused Emeh of transferring a large sum of money into his personal bank account from the suspect’s account.

Wherefore, we pray my Lord to direct that this matter be investigated with a view to curbing corruption and bringing the unscrupulous to justice.

We cannot allow the DCR to continue as if attaining any position in public service is a license to act at one’s whims and caprices.

Thank you, my noble lord, in anticipation that this petition will receive your kind judicial attention in the interest of justice,” the statement continued.

Justus Ijeoma accused the Deputy Chief Registrar, Federal High Court in Awka, Nkem Mba, of alleged “unprofessional conduct” in processing his bail because his family could not pay N1 million she allegedly demanded as gratification to process the bail.

Even while the court granted the whistleblower bail and while he was yet to meet the stringent bail conditions, the police were already planning to re-arrest him at court premises.
