It's become clear that most lawyers, (SANS) are crooked PMB outsmarted those SANs encouraging a self confessed felon to cling to his exalted office as CJN under the vague and ambiguous guise of due process. Keep crying Mr Ozekhome, you are only speaking for yourself and not Nigerians. We know your brand of advocacy is stomach driven.
