The statement, which was posted on the activist’s Facebook page, read in part, “It has been over 612 days after Comrade Agba Jalingo appeared in Court before Justice Sule Shuaibu to face the laughable but criminally masterminded case of terrorism, treasonable felony and attempt to topple the government instituted against him by folks who buffet on our commonwealth a la carté.
“He will face Justice Ijeoma Ojukwu at Court 1 of the Calabar Division of the Federal High Court today, October 18, 2021, by 9:00 am. His crime has remained to ask for the whereabouts of the N500m approved and released for the floating of the Cross River Microfinance Bank by Governor Benedict Ayade. He risks a life sentence at best and a death sentence at worst for demanding accountability
“Join us in solidarity to attend this history-making session by 9:00 am at Court 1 of the Calabar Division of the Federal High Court to remind the baby dictator that; ‘a people united, can never be defeated and that; ‘tyranny will always fail because those who abuse power are weaklings who mask behind the decision of the masses to do nothing’.”
