The Coalition for Judicial Integrity and Accountability (CJIA) has dismissed as false the claims that Justice Emmanuel Agim of the Supreme Court accompanied Nyesom Wike, Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), to the University of Calabar (UNICAL) convocation ceremony on Saturday, March 22, 2025.

The group said after carrying out findings into the matter, it concluded that the reports were baseless and part of a calculated attempt to drag the judiciary into political disputes. It warned that such misinformation could erode public trust in the judicial system.

 

In a statement on Tuesday, Dr. Umaru Bako, Executive Director of CJIA, strongly condemned the allegations, insisting that Justice Agim attended the event solely in his capacity as an award recipient and not as part of any political delegation.

“It is deeply concerning that some elements are working tirelessly to undermine public confidence in the judiciary by spreading falsehoods that seek to associate Supreme Court justices with politically exposed individuals at a time of heightened tensions in Rivers State. This is a dangerous and calculated move aimed at discrediting the credibility of the Supreme Court at a time when the nation looks up to it for impartial justice,” Bako stated.

“The facts are clear—he attended the convocation as an award recipient, not as a member of any political delegation. Those pushing this narrative are acting in bad faith.

“It is alarming that each time a Supreme Court justice is seen in a public setting, some political elements try to twist the story to fit their agenda. This must stop. The judiciary must not be dragged into political mudslinging by those who wish to manipulate public sentiment against it.”

The CJIA emphasized that attempts to entangle judicial officers in political controversies threaten the integrity of the nation’s legal system.

“The judiciary remains the last hope of the common man, and no amount of blackmail will diminish its standing in our democracy. Justice Agim, like his colleagues on the bench, must not be dragged into political conspiracies by those seeking to score cheap points,” Bako added.

The group urged media platforms to verify their information before publication, stressing that false narratives about the judiciary weaken democratic institutions.
