Police arrest APGA factional chairperson in court premises

There was mild drama, on Monday, at the premises of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) High Court in Bwari, Abuja, as the factional Chairman of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), Edozie Njoku, was arrested by the Nigerian police.

The arrest followed a complaint by the prosecution lawyer, Ezekiel Rinamsomte, that Mr Njoku, prior to the commencement of the criminal case filed against him, had verbally threatened him as counsel in the matter.

He told Justice Mohammed Madugu shortly after the case was about to be adjourned.
