Code of Conduct Tribunal Chairman, Justice Umar Publicly Assaults, Brutalises Security Guard At Abuja Plaza

Umar Danladi, Chairman of the Code of Conduct Tribunal (CCT) has been caught on camera physically assaulting a security guard at Banex plaza in Wuse, Abuja.

In the video exclusive obtained by SaharaReporters, Umar was seen speaking angrily, scolding and shouting at the yet-to-be identified man.

The CCT chairman also launched a barrage of attacks on the young man and violently kicked him before he was restrained by the crowd, including police officers attached to him.

He was then forced into his vehicle by the police officers.

Information made available from an eyewitness and the brutalised security guard was to that all the assaulted young man did was to ask Umar to park his car very well at the plaza, only for the CCT chairman to slap him, pull him down and inflict injuries on him.

"The CCT chairman was on the verge of further hitting the young security guard with a dangerous object taken from his car, when ersby and tenants at Banex plaza, intervened and stopped him from further assaulting and violently attacking the young security guard," the eyewitness said.

The action however didn’t go well with people who felt Umar cheated the security guard.

They suddenly became aggressive and started stoning the vehicles in the CCT chairman’s convoy, smashing their windscreens and windows.

Consequently, the legal services of Abuja-based legal practitioner, Ihensekhien Samuel Jnr, was sought.

He swiftly intervened and made legal representation at the Maitama Police Station under the Federal Capital Territory Police Command where Umar had gone to lodge a false complaint against the security guard.

The Divisional Police Officer at Maitama where the complaint was lodged, on seeing the video recordings of the atrocious and violent attack by Umar on the young security guard, swiftly ordered the prompt release of the young security guard on bail.

Reacting to the above, counsel for the assaulted security guard, Ihensekhien Samuel, said steps would be taken to promptly sue and prosecute Mr Danladi Umar.

He said, "This is a breach of extant provisions of judicial code of any arbiter, and the height of impunity of any kind."

He assured that the young security guard would get justice.

Known to have turned the CCT as the available forum for manipulation and settling political scores, Umar is currently being prosecuted by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) for corruption.

Court filings seen by SaharaReporters indicated that Umar collected N10 million from Rasheed Taiwo, a former Customs official who was facing false asset declaration charges before the CCT sometime in 2012.

The prosecution also accused Umar of receiving N1.8 million of the N10 million bribe sum through one of his personal assistants, Gambo Abdullahi.

The two counts of fraud contravened Section 12(1) (a) and (b) of the Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Act, 2003. The offences he was charged with attract up to seven years in prison.

In 2019, Walter Onnoghen, suspended Chief Justice of Nigeria (CJN), described Umar as a “tainted arbiter” who is being prosecuted by the EFCC for alleged bribery.

Onnoghen, who was then being prosecuted by the Nigerian government on alleged false assets declaration, asked the CCT Chairman to withdraw from presiding over his trial on the grounds of “real likelihood of bias”.

He described him as the “prosecutor, judge and jury who has constructively convicted” him without either hearing from the defendant or his being formally arraigned before him.

Code of conduct Tribunal Chairman

Egbami, Opari. People that supposed to lead by example

.... Guide our leaders right...

I cant but just respect folks doing petty legit things to survive like this guy n hawkers. n unfortunately this is what they face everyday cuz they chose the Legal way to finances, and that's why i'll never disrespect those bank n mall guard either big or small cuz it's not easy doing a job where you see ur mates n those younger than you are arriving in nice cars n looking nice but there you are hoping to collect the little you can get at the end of the month

anyways, I expect whoever this CCT boss is to order his sack immediately.

There are some reasons God will never give some people riches or a position of affluence

This is how every Nigerian behaves. Let them have small money in their , they will start ascribing Lord and masters to themselves. Not to talk of local govt councillor.
Pastors, imans, even senior head boy
Or senior maid. This is us.

When I saw this post, I ed a wisdom that my grandfather said to me at my uncle's wedding, while we were sitting next to each other next to the music band, the volume was loud, I did not hear the wisdom.

I'm surprised he hadn't been fired long ago

Very foolish man

Too bad

Who's that alhaji that first slap the young man?
The cameraman tho

Animal wear agbada

Northerners has turn Nigeria democracy to something else
While their bmc are hailing them

And people were watching.

Give a black man power he will grossly abuse it.

If it were in a sane country, he would resign and be prosecuted. But as far this country is concerned, this case ends here on the pages of news papers and social media.

Sad!

Our leaders are not foreigners, they are a part of us and one of us, they are part of the system that put us all in this great mess.

We are responsible for our mess and we must fix it by fixing our children so they don't turn out like us. Our children are the hope of the Nigeria we wish for.

Too bad.

Na Dem get naija now so no qualm

This is totally uncalled for.

The Chairman of the Code of Conduct Tribunal could not conduct himself in public; bullying, intimidating and assaulting a security guard






The idiot is even a justice

This is our fathdr land

Nigerian justice system is so flawed.


I can just wake up one morning and order the police to arrest anyone who's less privileged and lock him up on any charges I so wished whether true or false.

The Nigerian police will simply carry out my orders to the letters.

Whoever calls Police in Nigeria is ajudged innocent while the accused is guilty.

A little tip will do the magic.

He even tell am to kneel down....... Chaii!!!
