The Supreme Court has debunked a report that one of its justices, Emmanuel Agim, accompanied the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nyesom Wike, to a recent convocation ceremony of the University of Calabar.
The apex court, in a statement that was signed by its Director of Information & Public Relations, Dr. Akande Festus, maintained that contrary to the false narrative circulating on social media, Justice Agim, attended the convocation as an honouree and an alumnus of the institution.

It warned that such insinuation was capable of undermining the judicial independence that is crucial to the nation’s democracy.

The statement, a copy of which the court made available to Vanguard on Monday, read: “In light of the reports circulating on social media and other news platforms, we wish to clarify the circumstances surrounding the attendance of Hon. Justice Emmanuel Akomaye Agim of the Supreme Court of Nigeria at the convocation ceremony of the University of Calabar on Saturday, 22nd March, 2025.
