Pat Utomi Responds to Court Ruling on Shadow Government Plan in Nigeria

Professor Pat Utomi reacted to a Federal High Court ruling declaring the plan to establish a shadow government in Nigeria illegal. The court upheld the Department of State Services' argument that the initiative posed a threat to the country's peace and security.

Utomi insisted that the move was aimed at seeking constitutional recognition and expressed disappointment in the court's decision. He emphasized the importance of citizens' rights to express themselves freely and seek constitutional reforms.

The ruling has sparked debates about the boundaries of political activism and the balance between national security and democratic freedoms.
