Justice Obiora Egwuatu of the Federal High Court, Abuja, on Tuesday, ordered the immediate release of the former Registrar of the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB), Prof. Dibu Ojerinde, by the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC).
The judge, who gave the order in a rights enforcement suit filed by the ex-JAMB chief, also ordered the commission to pay a N1 million fine to the plaintiff over his unlawful arrest.
He equally awarded N200,000 against the ICPC as Ojerinde’s cost of filing the case.
