Attorney-General of the
Federation and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami, has resolved to go to
court over series of allegations against him.
He made the announcement on
Monday through his media aide, Umar Gwandu.
Malami said the publications have
subjected him to “considerable distress, psychological trauma, anxiety and
greatly injured his character and reputation”.
The AGF says his person is
suffering “what appears like a coordinated attack”.
Malami noted that he has been
receiving telephone calls and visits “from well-meaning Nigerians, his friends,
well-wishers and
associates from all over the
world”.
The minister said the
publications against him were contrary to Nigerian Criminal and Penal Laws and
a gross violation of his right.
“A senior lawyer has already been
briefed to deal with the matter as may be appropriate, in the event of failure
to retract the publication in question and offer the requested apology within
seven days”, the statement added.
