Without this document, the Prosecution is found to have failed to prove the allegation on the required
burden of proof established by the law, and the Defendant is found Not Guilty as Charged under
Count 12, and is accordingly Discharged and Acquitted.
In Conclusion, the Court cannot help but Comment on the Visit by Certain Members of the Plateau
State House of Assembly, who during the Time of the Defendant’s Impeachment, made a Trip to the
United Kingdom to Present what they called before the Court, “MEMO TO RT. HONOURABLE TONY
BLAIR, PRIME MINISTER, UNITED KINGDOM ON THE STATE OF EMERGENCY IN PLATEAU
STATE, NIGERIA JULY 14, 2004”
They had apparently forgotten that Nigeria is a Sovereign State and not under ANY FORM OF
COLONIAL RULE. They did not achieve their Aim to see the Right Honourable Tony Blair and had only
passed this Memo to a Top British Official for onward transmission to Mr. Tony Blair. DW13, Dr.
Patrick Dakum, the then Commissioner of Information and DW14, Honourable Aminu Agwon Zang, a
Former Commissioner, could not tell the Court, the Outcome of their Visit, and they returned back to
Nigeria without any response on Record.
The Court can only liken their Trip to the Old English Rhyme, which first appeared in a Book called
“Songs For the Nursery” in 1805, which goes like this: “Pussy Cat, Pussy Cat, where have you been?
I’ve been to London to Look at the Queen.
Pussy Cat, Pussy Cat, what did you do there?
I frightened a Little Mouse under her Chair.”
Absolutely Pointless Visit and a Reckless Squandering of Public funds, exhibiting Ignorance of
International Law and Norms!!!
