The court presided over by Justice C. Nwogu remanded Ejirogene at the request of the Rivers State Chairman of Nigerian Bar Association, NBA, Prince Nyekwere, pending the outcome of their investigation, according to Instablog9ja.
Nyekwere later told pressmen that the Bar Association were informed by the Supreme Court that they do not have the suspect’s name, as a lawyer.
Checks also revealed that his name was also not on the database of the Nigeria Bar Association.
A video uploaded to the Instagram page of Instablog9ja shows a security officer attempting to handcuff Stanley Ejirogene.
