The Federal High Court has dismissed reports alleging that the Justice James Omotosho of the Federal High Court, Abuja, survived an assassination attempt following the life sentence imposed on Nnamdi Kanu.
This clarification was contained in a statement issued on Saturday by the Chief Registrar of the Court, Sulaiman Amida Hassan Esq.
He explained that the report which was carried by the CELEBRITY BLOGGER, was completely false and unfounded.
He therefore, advised the general public to treat this publication as fake news and refrain from further dissemination to prevent the spread of misinformation.
“Given the gravity of the report, which has the potential to cause panic and undermine confidence in the judicial system—possibly intended as a form of intimidation—we call on the relevant security agencies and regulatory authorities to conduct a thorough investigation.
“The goal being to identify and apprehend the perpetrators responsible for this false report and prosecute them in accordance with the laws of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, particularly those relating to cybercrime, defamation, and public misinformation,” the statement said.
