EFCC lacks powers to prosecute serving judges, Court of Appeal rules The Lagos Division of the Court of Appeal has ruled that the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission does not have powers to investigate or prosecute serving judicial officers except where such officers have been dismissed by the National Judicial Council. The judgment was delivered in a suit between the EFCC and a judge of the Federal High Court, Hydiazira Nganjiwa. The appellate court’s decision overturned the earlier decision of a high court in Lagos. Many serving judges including from the Supreme Court are currently being prosecuted for corruption by the EFCC.

VICTORY FOR THE RULE OF LAW If EFCC like, they should appeal to supreme court, they will meet NJC there. How can you say Judges do not have immunity. Have you forgotten that they must be totally independent? Even the Nigeria Police Force also knows this. How can EFCC bring a case to my court and perhaps because I did not connive with them, they now go ahead and harass me at home, then come back to say I should step down because they want to investigate me. If that charade is allowed, then it amounts to usurping the duties of the NJC. The NJC remains the only police within the judiciary. 1 Like |
