NSS scandal: Authority secures court order to stop The Fourth Estate’s exposé

By The Fourth Estate Date: December 2, 2024
SHARE

The National Service Authority (NSA) has run to court to secure a 10-day injunction to prevent The Fourth Estate from publishing a series of investigative stories that were due to be published from tomorrow, December 3, 2024.   

About 12 hours before the first publication, a court bailiff served the Media Foundation for West Africa, the organisation that runs The Fourth Estate project, with an injunction from the High Court.

“IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that, the Defendant/Respondents, its privies, servants, agents, assigns and interested parties are hereby restrained from putting out any purported investigative report concerning the Plaintiff/Applicant and its staff until their side of the subject matter of the investigations is heard and included in the said report,” the injunction document stated.

On Friday, November 29, The Fourth Estate announced that from this week, it would be publishing a series of investigative reports on the National Service Authority. However, the NSA filed an injunction application today, December 2, and secured a court order on the blind side of The Fourth Estate to prevent the publication this week.

    The truth cannot be hidden or suppressed forever. It will be exposed. So when the Deputy Director of the institution was running her mouth, assuring the staff that there was nothing in the documentary to fear, this is what she knew they were going to do. We have heard it clearly.
