Sir Lois McMaster Bujold was once most categorical when he mused thus " The dead cannot cry out for justice. It is a duty of the living to do so for them"

Perhaps this quote best picture the graphical state of the much debated cry for true justice from the camp of billionaire business tycoon and corporate player ,Barrister Jimoh Ibrahim

And as Faith will have it; a federal High Court sitting in Abuja upon motion of experts filed by Mr. Jimoh Ibrahim and NICON Investment Limited and others, has granted an interim order restraining Assets Management Corporation of Nigeria (AMCON) and others from taking further steps regarding reconstitution and appointment of the defendants into the Board and management of NICON.

The suit No: PHC/ABJ/CS/760/2021 dated July 29, 2021 and filed on July 30, 2021 by the attorneys to the applicants, C.I. Okpoko, SAN, and C.C. Ogbonna Esq, prayed for an interim order to set down the instant suit for accelerated hearing.

Upon reading and hearing the affidavit in support of the application, verifying affidavit and affidavit of urgency all disposed to by William Aroeote, company secretary of NICON Investment Limited, the presiding judge, A.R. Mohammed granted the prayers.

The court ordered that an order is made setting down the instant suit for accelerated hearing.

Indeed late Emperor Haile Selassie must be commanded for stating that... "Throughout history, it has been the inaction of those who could have acted; the indifference of those who should have known better; the silence of the voice of justice when it mattered most; that has made it possible for evil to triumph"
