Unfortunately, a judge who should be fully ready to bear the burden of truth, was busy mobilising lawyers to cover up the sagging breast and glaring inhumanity championed against another man.
Justice Obot has been able to remind us of dismissed late Justice Moshood Olugbani whose hatchet job pushed to the extreme end. Olugbani gave a controversial judgement that grounds the voice of the masses and also empowers the ruling class to misbehave. The judgement says the ruling class should not be challenged, since they are like the king whose ruling and actions cannot be challenged in any court of law.
While tactically treating Olugbani to a knock, Fawehinmi bluntly challenged his ordering the arrest of the journalists, he said, “They did a cover story on you and you are not happy. You are showing bitterness. You hold that grudge against them and that is why you want to send them to prison without hearing a word from their counsel. It is not right. The law and God will not allow it. It is not fair.
Olugbani in reply to this allegation only said, “It is not true,” he did not go ahead to feast on Fawehinmi.
NBA won't do more....they might not be so independent as you think. So much corruption and favors to manipulate system in every sector.
😭 Only the bar can save the bar. NBA should do more.
More of who will redeem the country? If the head is bad. Then trust me there cannot be anything good with the rest of the body. Let's start from somewhere though and see what we could achieve as a people. We have lost it guys!!! 🥶
