But Associate Justice Kabineh Ja’neh disassociated himself from the four other justices, including Chief Justice Francis Saye Korkpor’s decision yesterday. “There is no document to establish that the NEC was complying with the court’s mandate to fully clean up the FRR,” Ja’neh argued. Meanwhile, the Communications Director of the NEC, Henry Flomo, was yesterday held in contempt of the court, for making an utterance about the runoff, contrary to the court’s mandate preventing a staff of the NEC from speaking about the runoff. “Flomo is hereby fined US$500 and incarcerated for two days for disrespecting the court’s mandate,” Justice Korkpor declared. Immediately after Korkpor made his order, the Marshall of the Court arrested Flomo.
