#EndSARS: Court halts criminal case against Davido, Falz, 48 other activists, celebrities | Daily Report Nigeria

The Federal Capital Territory (FCT) High Court sitting in Bwari Abuja, on Wednesday, stopped the criminal complaints case instituted by a lawyer against 50 activists and celebrities at a Chief Magistrate’s Court in the aftermath of the violence that erupted during last year’s #EndSARS protests.

The judge, Bello Kawu, made the order stopping the case in a ruling on an application filed by the 50 defendants to challenge the criminal complaints pending before the Chief Magistrate’s Court in Wuse Zone 6, Abuja.

A lawyer, Kenechukwu Okeke, in the complaints filed at Chief Magistrate’s Court, asked that the 50 defendants be brought to justice for allegedly promoting the #EndSARS protests which he claimed led to violence that caused destruction of lives and property in different parts of the country.

Those dragged to court by Mr Okeke in the suit pending at the magistrate’s court include Deji Adeyanju, , also known as Burna Boy, Maryam Akpaokagi (Taoma), David Adeleke (Davido), Folarin Falana (Falz), Debo Adebayo (Mr Macaroni), Damini Ogulu

Others are, Tiwa Savage, Michael Ajereh (Don Jazzy), Yemi Alade, Peter and Paul Okoye (formerly P-Square), Innocent Idibia (Tuface) and Bankole Wellington (Banky W)

The defendants had proceeded to the FCT High Court to challenge the criminal complaints, with Mr Okeke, along with the Nigeria Police Force and the FCT Police Command, joined as the defendants.

They argued that the case pending before the lower court was meant “to gag the applicants and other celebrities from exercising their rights under section 40 and 44 and other enabling sections of the constitution”.
