“Jack Must Pay” – Adamu Garba Explains Why His Lawyers Didn’t Appear In Court.
The Former presidential aspirant under the All Progressives Congress (APC), Adamu Garba took to his twitter page to explain why he and his team did not show up for the hearing of his suit filed against the CEO of Twitter, Jack Dorsey.
According to the politician, his lawyers had received the notice for the hearing late and therefore had to request for an adjournment.
This comes after Nigerian lawyer, Tope Akinyode who had filed a lawsuit challenging the criminal complaint administered by Adamu Garba against the Twitter CEO, disclosed that the former failed to appear for hearing at the Federal High Court on Wednesday, November 25, 2020.
Taking to his Twitter handle, Adamu continued by stating that there is no going back and as such his team will pursue the case to the end.
In his own words;
“OUR LAWYERS GOT THE NOTICE FOR THE HEARING PRETTY LATE, SO WE HAD TO REQUEST FOR ADJOURNMENT TO THE CASE WHICH THE COURT GRACIOUSLY GRANTED. THUS THE 21ST APRIL 2021 DATE WAS SET.
HOWEVER, WE MAY APPROACH THE COURT TO REQUEST FOR AN EARLIER DATE.
STAY TUNED. WE WILL WIN THIS.
WE WILL PURSUE THIS CASE TO THE END. NO GOING BACK.
WE WILL NOT ALLOW ANY VIOLATION AND/OR INTERFERENCE IN OUR LOCAL POLITICAL AFFAIRS BY ANY FOREIGN ACTOR.
THIS CASE WILL SERVE AS A DETERRENT TO ANYONE WHO GROSSLY ABUSE HIS PRIVILEGE AGAINST OUR COUNTRY.
JACK MUST PAY.
“WE TRUST IN THE COURT ABILITY TO DELIVER THE RIGHT JUSTICE, AGAINST VIOLATION OF OUR SOVEREIGNTY, SUBVERSION OF OUR PEACE AND COLLECTIVE WELL-BEING OF NIGERIA’S SECURITY.
“WE THEREFORE, LOOK FORWARD TO HAVING TWITTER OFFICE IN NIGERIA AND $1BN FOR THE VICTIMS OF #ENDSARS PROTEST.”
