But suffice it to say that it is trite law that a court order must be obeyed to the letter until it is set aside or lapses by effluxion of time. As if this is not enough, the Federal government is threatening to make the COVID-19 vaccination compulsory for all public servants in Nigeria.Ĭonsidering that the case of Charles Osaretin V Governor Obaseki & others is still sub-judice I would refrain from commenting on the merit or demerit of the case until it is determined by the court. ![]() But apparently undeterred by the restraining ex-parte order, Governor Obaseki is still talking tough and has vowed to enforce his command no matter whose ox is gored. But ruling on an application brought by an aggrieved citizen Charles Osaretin against Governor Obaseki and five others, the Federal High Court sitting in Port Harcourt has granted an ex-parte restraining the Governor from enforcing his command pending the determination of the substantive Motion on Notice of the applicant to enforce his fundamental human right. In other words, no vaccination, no freedom of religious worship, no freedom of movement. It is no longer news that Edo State Governor Godwin Obaseki has commanded from his Olympian height that with effect from the second week of September 2021 all unvaccinated people in Edo State would be barred from worshipping in Churches and Mosques and even entering banks and other public places in Edo State. Why force Nigerians to take the COVID-19 vaccination which is not a cure for COVID-19 but only a preventive measure competing with other preventive measures? Why force Nigerians to take the COVID-19 vaccination when the manufacturers/profiteers and suppliers of COVID-19 vaccines had expressly stated that they would not indemnify any taker of the vaccination or his or her legal representatives and assigns for any losses, damages and detriments whatsoever caused or to be suffered and/or incurred by the taker of the vaccination? Why compel Nigerians to take COVID-19 vaccination which a priori had not been subjected to clinical test or trial by Nigerian physicians and NAFDAC to first ascertain whether it is good for Nigerians?. Why force Nigerians to take COVID-19 vaccination when the manufacturers/profiteers and suppliers of the COVID-19 vaccines had expressly exempted or absorbed themselves from any liability for any death, injury, bodily impairment or any other damages directly or indirectly traceable or resulting from taking the vaccination?. Forcing citizens to take the COVID-19 vaccination which has caused the death of some people and severe adverse reactions and blood clot in the body and brain, known as cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) of other people, is, to say the least, a crime against humanity.
