It is pathetic that our judiciary have no say in a country who proud themselves as democratically incline nation. After waking up to news of abduction of judges by operatives of the Department of State Services (DSS), Nigerians have taken to Twitter to denounce what they call Gestapo-style arrests without following due process.

Most of the blame has gone directly to Pres. Muhammadu Buhari whose office is operationally in charge of the DSS. One voice coming loud, clear, and strong is that of the Chairman of the National Human Rights Commission, Chidi Odinkalu, who has called the simultaneous sting operation across half a dozen states as “intimidation of the judiciary”.

See tweets from the NHRC boss below…

It's because of judges like these we aren't recovering these funds. Hence the arrest! See? It's actually win win.

You "cannot" fight corruption with 'due process" and without stepping on toes.[s] The level of corruption in Nigeria doesnt need "due process". Egbon nah English you dey speak, our 'situation' in Nigeria nor need "English", we need "Action" them nor use 'due process' collect millions of dollars as 'bribe'[/s].......

He who comes to equity must come with clean hands; even Buhari can't claim his hands are clean. Is it not the same man who told the entire world he had to borrow 29 Million Naira from Union Bank that contested and won an election having being sponsored by crooks like....? The judges have done something 'wrong,' but due process must be followed. Today is the turn of the judges, tomorrow could be yours--so let's stop supporting Buhari's bad attitude towards rule of law.

Legend87:


I'm not in support of either parties.. My question is, before the privacy-intruding arrest of the judges, what has been done with the recovery of other looted funds?

I am not Buhari's P.A. but it doesn't mean I should clap for the judges. They collected bribe, they should face the music. Simple.

@Soberdrunk, don't worry since you know due process shouldn't be observed in this country, when you're arrested by the Nigerian police without a reasonable reason for your arrest, don't complain cos karma is a biatch!.

Legend87:


Can the DSS arrest buhari for also bribing this same judges over his certificate saga?

ificatchmodeh:
Thank God..reasonable nigerians are speaking out..

ilynem:

Na wa for you oh. So you pity their destroyed properties? Try and pity the people these corrupt judges have robbed of justice due to bribe Na. Nigerians like you are the reason we aren't moving forward. I pray you get into a court case with a rich politician.

Immatex:

Are you so ignorant Can you excuse impunity on the alter of corruption And who is free You

ArabMopol:

spewing trash from both sides of ur mouth

BERNIMOORE:
did you listen to yourself? setting aside the 'rule of law' is allien to practicing democracy, so lets go back to millitary rule, case closed, this is not how to practice democracy.

wiseoneking:
Then, it comes upon Tinubu, ok.

kaka74:



Clap 4urself bro jst don't complain when we get to be like libya

ilynem:

No they can't. Same reason they can't arrest Fayose and Wike right now. But when he leaves office, I will give them the thumbs up if they arrest him for bribery! Simple!

soberdrunk:


If "impunity" is the solution to the "massive" corruption in Nigeria then i accept it like a chilled bottle of gulder on a sunny afternoon.........

Watch all the wailers come out in this thread and spout rubbish. Democracy, rule of law, blah blah and yet they will fail to condemn the criminal judges for taking bribes. Someone is about to kill you, another comes and saves you by hitting the killer on the head with a stick and he passes out. Instead of you thanking him for saving your life, you say he should have followed due process by calling the police. Some of you are just dumb Sha.

light004:


Disobeying court orders is corruption...what do you say about that.

can corruption acts kill corruption. Abuse of power is corruption.

Obviously you are not well informed about the Libyan situation........
