Court Orders Arrest Of Okocha, Former Captain of Super Eagles
By Fatai Abdullahi
A Lagos High Court sitting at Igbosere, Lagos, has issued a bench warrant for the arrest of the former Super Eagles Captain, Austin Okocha, a. k. a. Jay Jay Okocha for failure to appear in court severally to answer to why he has allegedly failed to pay his income taxes.
Okocha was dragged before the court by the Lagos State Ministry of Justice for failure to furnish return of his personal income tax.
On June 6, 2017 complain was filed before the court against the former Super Eagles Captain, the case came up for the first time on Oct. 5, 2017 but he failed to appear in court.
However, after several adjournments without him appearing in court when service have been served on him, the prosecutor urged the court to issue a bench warrant for his arrest.
The Presiding Judge, Justice Adedayo Akintoye, on Jan. 29 issued a bench warrant for the arrest of the ex-Supper Eagles Captain and adjourned until February 19, 2019, for him to be produce in court.
However, on February, 2019, the prosecution had not effected the arrest, the court then ordered that on the next adjourned date the order should have been executed.
Consequently Justice Akintoye adjourned the case till April 15, 2019 for the execution of the bench warrant and Okocha made to appear in court for trial to commence.
Okocha was alleged to have failed to furnish return of his income tax to the Lagos State Internal Revenue services, which indicates that he has failed to pay his income taxes.
The offences alleged to have been committed by Okocha contravened Sections 56 (a) and (b) of the Lagos State Revenue Administration Law No.8, 2006, and Section 94 (1) of the Personal Income Tax Act Cap P8, Laws of the Federation of Nigeria 2004.

I know this if off topic but I’m looking into starting
my own blog and was curious what all is required to get set up?
I’m assuming having a blog like yours would
cost a pretty penny? I’m not very internet smart so I’m not 100% certain. Any recommendations or advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
