I think you have a problem with objective resoning and comprehension. If a judge is corrupt,send in the EFCC and ICPC and let them do their job. DSS has no business with arresting people who are corrupt. Secondly,if you must arrest someone,do it in a civil manner,not breaking into their homes and destroying their properties most especially when they did not resist arrest. America and other civilized countries of the world are attractive to us becuase they follow rules and properly laid down laws. If you believe in this type of reckless way of doing things,never expect justice cos a suspect according to the law,is innocent until proven guilty. If you support this,then you have no right to speak against police brutality when metted out on you. Nigeria cannot and should not be run like a banana republic.

Ah! Mr objective reasoning. So is it the agency that conducted the arrest that is your problem? Sorry. And what makes you think they didn't resist arrest? Someone has millions in his bedroom and he won't try to hide it? Hence the break in. Finally the attractive America broke international laws, went into Pakistan and killed Bin Laden. This is small. All your corrupt uncles will end up in jail.

Selective you say? I saw some northern names among judged abducted. So what's your point?

uncle recheck those names

(Mods please forgive my capslock) I CANT SEEM TO UNDERSTAND HOW A LOT OF NIGERIAN "ADULTS" LIKE THIS MY BROTHER HERE REASON, THEY ARE NOT BOTHERED WHETHER AN INDIVIDUAL STOLE THEIR 'RIGHT' TO BASIC SOCIAL AMMENITIES, WHAT BOTHERS THEM IS "FAVORTISM" AND "NEPOTISM", ITS LIKE AN INDIVIDUAL THAT WAS DIAGNOSED WITH "CANCER" AND IS WORRIED ABOUT "PIMPLES" ON HIS FACE. A CORRUPT POLITICIAN IS 'ALMOST NORMAL' BUT A "CORRUPT" JUDGE IS AN "ABOMINATION", A JUDGE THAT KNOWS THE LAW LIKE THE BACK OF HIS HAND AND HOW TO MANIPULATE IT AND YOU EXPECT THEM TO BE TAKEN TO COURT, ITS LIKE REPORTING ONE JUJU PRIEST TO ANOTHER JUJU PRIEST. NOBODY HAS TIED THESE JUDGES TO THE OPPOSITION PARTY SO THE THEORY OF "WITCH HUNT" IS NOT RELATIVE TO THIS ISSUE, SO FAR THE BONE OF CONTENTION IS JUDGES NOT BEING ABLE TO EXPLAIN SUDDEN WEALTH ABOVE THEIR INCOME.............

ArabMopol:
yeah is illegal to arrest those judge, those judge enjoy the same immunity like executive arm of government, they are independent body .. detaining & traumatising elder statesmen's like a pretty thieve is not the best way to handle this recent events this is a rape to the democracy, we have due process, buhari should follow due process we are not in military rule,

You "cannot" fight corruption with 'due process" and without stepping on toes. 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'.......

Those fighting corruption now are most corrupt as well.

Imagine if your neighbor accused you of been a ritualist and the police just came to your house to arrest you and end up not taking you to court, is that fair too?

Are the judges involve guilty? no. why? not proven only time will tell, DSS style of arrest is it proper? no why? This judges could still be invited by effc not DSS since it is allegation bothering on corruption. Buhari will murder democracy if we don't resist.

Dasuki is not being held for corruption but because buhari has scores to settle with him,

When u fail to follow due process in doing things... U you are well committing crime against human which is on its own a punishable offense.

As far as am concern judiciary is the last hope of common man but not in Nigerian context. Nigerian judiciary has failed in upholding their virtue, our jury compromised at any slightest chance. We are in this mess because they have failed. we need holistic measures to tackle issues in this country, corruption has gotten to it peak and at this point in time due process need to be overlooked at times to set a deterrent. my issue is buhari should be rational in his actions not being selected

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”.

Rest In Perfect Peace DEMOCRACY..

Yes, but you should know there is no impunity in Democracy. But why is that it is our brothers from the SE that are feeling more intimidated about this fight on corruption? Is it the case of "the guilty are afraid? "

The era of people hiding under Democrazy to commit crimes are over. This is called "Sting operation", and any body can be taken especially if you're a suspect irrespective of your rank or societal standing.

O boy forget that one. Nigeria is the most complex country of Black race in the world- this is a holy and gospel truth you will not want to hear. We need complex solutions to conquer this evil monster bedevilling Nigeria.

and METUH who was accused of stealing 400MILLION NAIRA was always in court court in black Marian pick up van and HAND CUFFS while DASUKI accused of embezzling I've 2BILLION DOLLARS goes to court in an AC bus with NO HAND CUFFS.

You are right,policemen will soon slap you for withdrawing 50,000 from ATM at once and you will explain where you got the money.It is corruption to have 50,000 in your account in recession.

But Buhari was elected under a due process?

adbokus:

Where do they get idiots like this now! Can't you people be objective for once in your miserable moribund lives?! Democracy is being raped continually here by that m!oron of president and you latch on your keypads to type then post this bunkum! It is your likes that make these nitwits continually refer to Nigerian youths as leaders of tomorrow even as old as you are! I am sure if your daughter was democracy and that Dauric bozo rapes her, you will probably hail him and give him medal of honour. Vacuous entity...

Lol, who do you?

watch how USA Obama will praise him for this act

What I knw is dat Wen it's time for election Buhari will cool down in other for him to get votes from Nigerians, mark my words.

khadaffi:

The highlighted part is what disturbs me when I see people praising the nonsense crime committed by buhari. Today he is president, tomorrow he will not be there. What happens if another. President tomorrow uses this same attitude on him or his family members.

Buhari is too vindictive and always sees himself as one who is holier than others--a sort of Pharisaic attitude.

Two wrongs never make a right. Today those judges were forcefully abducted without following due process, tomorrow it will be using the military to intimidate citizens in the name of sanitizing Nigeria. Tyranny doesn't happen at once it begins gradually as we have seen in the last 2 years our democracy is gradually going unless we stand against this act.

Stupid animal right activist,where were u when the aluu 4 were murdered? D nigerian prisons is filled with innocent persons who cry for justice yet ur voice is neva heard.
Just keep qwayet an let OUR SUPERHEROE DO THE WORK WE VOTED HIM FOR.
DUE PROCESS CAN GO TO HELL AS LONG AS CORRUPT POLITICIANS ARE ARRESTED.

This is BIG SHAME to our Judiciary.
How can a STARK ILLITERATE do this to our so-called LEARNED LUMINARIES.

SHAME
I SPIT ON NIGERIA

omofunaab:
[s]I have been saying these things
The judiciary arm of government is very corrupt and they are the most protected arm of government.
The worst they get after collecting bribes is retirement and not prosecution.
That's why a corrupt politician will boldly tell you that we should meet in court because he knows how corrupt the judiciary is.
The stupid judge that discharged and acquitted James ibori is probably somewhere in Nigeria enjoying his bribe whereas ibori was sentenced in London.

Don't let us pretend that these judges aren't corrupt because i see most of us have turned to human rights activists now on nairaland.

The truth is the judiciary needs a thorough cleansing which can only be done in a draconian way.
Forget stupid rule of law or due process, yes the NJC is saddled with the responsibility of punishing corrupt judges but please tell me how many judges the NJC have recommended for prosecution despite the fact we know all these judges collect bribes.

Some people are hiding under rule of law and due process to rape us.

People are condemning DSS commando style.. It's like you are new in Nigeria, this is how Nigerian police and law enforcement agencies have been rolling since inception, it's nothing new, or do you think due process is when police collects your phone and starts checking your emails. Or when there is a fight on the streets and police goes to innocent people's house to arrest them.

Please don't let us pretend.. Even in America the FBI Wil carry surveillance on suspects before carrying raids on houses so that the suspect won't bury evidence .

The question most of you should be asking is that did the DSS present any search warrant? Which they did. They presented search warrants which is the normal procedure.

What's your business if they didn't invite them to their office in the first place.. It's not your duty to teach them how to do their jobs, most of us don't know that house raids is a constitutional thing .
If they don't raid how then will they get evidence?

Please they should raid any judge's house that surveillance has shown to be suspicious.

For once other judges Will think twice before collecting bribes.[/s]

Typical afonja and warped reasoning. Nobody is saying the judiciary is not corrupt... is Buhari, Ameachi, Tinubu less corrupt than them? All we are saying is....FOLLOW DUE PROCESS AND STOP HARASSING PEOPLE. THIS IS NOT A MILITARY REGIME.

bros, u make sense gan, tuale to you, nigeria situation is more dan dat foolish due process, for example saraki issue which dem folow due proces abeg wetin b outcome, if dey av use force on him i knw he wil confess,

u re fool pass,
