Today s.court stand for what is right by up holding the supremacy of the constitution. This is federal Republic of Nigeria, for those who does not know what that means, it means the state are autonomous, free from control by the federal government. So BUHARI can not tell state

Buhari will soon lock d court gate

I thought it was a good thing for state legislature and judiciary to have autonomy. Or does it affect democracy negatively?, I honestly want to know

Let the federal government arrest them

very good

Why are the Govs against the financial autonomy of the judiciary and the state HOAs?

When the chief law officer advised d president to initiate an executive order and such EO is later declared unlawful then one need to check if such chief law officer is fit or competent enough to hold that office or otherwise.

What kind of news is this this Heading has no meaning

What are the executive orders?

I am sorry to say, but this is not journalism. What about those who haven't been following this trends? No analysis, no explanation no antecedence...nothing. just direct shots. This is too poor.

These governors continue to pull Nigeria back. This ruling reminds me of the suit they filed challenging the federal government’s creation of the SWF and the transfer of funds from the Excess Crude Account. 🤦🏽‍♂️ 🚶‍♂️
