The Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission, ICPC has dismissed reports purporting that the commission arrested Justice James Omotosho of the Federal High Court, Abuja.
A statement issued by the ICPC spokesperson, Okor Odey, described the video currently circulating on social media as false and malicious.
The commission stated that the claim contained in the video is entirely untrue and intended to spread mischief and mislead members of the public.
ICPC clarified that it has neither arrested nor invited Justice James Omotosho in relation to any investigation.
“The Commission is also not investigating the Honourable Judge as alleged in the video.
“The commission therefore urges members of the public to disregard the misleading content and refrain from spreading unverified information capable of causing unnecessary public concern and damaging reputations”, the statement added.
