Excerpts:
I can recall vividly this particular day in court this year, 2018. What happened to me in court that day was so dramatic, that I cannot forget, it not even in a hurry.
On this fateful day, I have a matter before an High Court judge and before one of our magistrates here in the state as well.
When I finished my matter at the High Court, I removed my beep and kept it inside the bag, so, I entered the Magistrate Court unknowingly without it. The Judge noticed that I was not properly dressed, then said ‘Mr Amosa, you have no audience before me,’ I was surprised with such order coming from him so I looked around me, then I realised that I’ve removed my beep. I had to demand from the court to stand down the matter for me so that I can wear the beep. It was one day I always remember looking back.
