Ayorinde and others have instituted the suit through their lawyer, Emmanuel B. Benjamin, against Mr. Oludare Amos Aturamu, Mrs. Kemi Adesanya, Smart Link Property Services, Commissioner of Police, Lagos, Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP) in-charge of State Criminal Intelligence and Investigation Department (SCIID) Panti, Lagos, and Officer-Charge of Assistant Commissioner Section, and SP Alhaji Aminu, of SCIID, Panti, Lagos. Ayorinde, alongside the Registered Trustees of World Evangelism Incorporated and Revered Harold Chinoyerem of the same Church, have instituted a fundamental rights suit marked D/6724MFHR/2018, before the court seeking a declaration that their harassment, intimidation, threat of arrest, detention and invitation by the police at the instance of some people is violation of the fundamental rights to personal liberty as guaranteed under section 34 and 35 of Nigeria constitution. The Prophet and others are also asking the court to restrain the police, their agents, privies, servants from inviting, arresting, detaining, harassing and molesting or any manner infringing on their rights. And an order restraining the police from publishing their names in any police bulletin or any medium for the purpose of declaring them wanted. The petitioners are also asking the court to order the police to pay them the sum of N4 million, as compensation for breach of their fundamental rights However, the Police in an affidavit filed before the court urged the court to dismiss Ayorinde’s suit The affidavit filed before the court by Police lawyer, Samsideen Adebesin, averred that it received a petition from Aturamu, Adesanya and Smart Link Services, where they alleged that Prophet Samson Ayorinde obtained a loan of N30 million from them sometimes in August 2016, for the expansion of his church, with the promise that the loan will be refunded within two months with interest rate of 30 percent. The Police added that in the petition, the petitioners alleged that not quite long after the loan was granted to Ayorinde, that he traveled out for medical vacation to attend to his health, only to come back to the country in July 2017, adding that when Ayorinde could not repay the loan, the interest rate was reduced to 22.5 percent as a mark of good gesture. The police also stated that Ayorinde is being investigated on a criminal complaint of issuance of dud cheques. And upon receiving the complaint, Ayorinde never presented himself to the police. But sometimes in August 2017, he volunteered a statement in reaction to the allegation against him and he was granted administrative bail. The police further stated that all the depositions made by Ayorinde were not only false, but untrue, adding that Ayorinde and other applicants cannot use their suit to stop the police from carrying out its constitutional duties of investigating alleged crimes.]]>
