The group, after conducting an independent investigation into the matter, concluded that the reports were baseless and part of a calculated attempt to drag the judiciary into political disputes. It warned that such misinformation could erode public trust in the judicial system.
In a statement on Tuesday, Dr. Umaru Bako, Executive Director of CJIA, strongly condemned the allegations, insisting that Justice Agim attended the event solely in his capacity as an award recipient and not as part of any political delegation.
