Nigeria's SC As Last Pillar Of Nigerian Democracy Under International Scrutiny by shrinkchido(f): 2:19pm On Feb 17, 2020
Bruce Fein, former Associate Deputy Attorney General of the United States and renowned international lawyer, issued the following statement today on behalf of US Council on Nigeria, addressing the forthcoming Nigerian Supreme Court hearing on the Imo State gubernatorial election:

"Nigeria's democracy is on life support. The Nigerian Supreme Court is the last best hope to save it on Tuesday from death and international alienation.

The United States has banned Nigerian immigrants. It has rebuked Nigeria for persecuting Christians, and a conference is scheduled in spring in Washington DC to address the issue of religious persecution in Nigeria. Nigeria's leadership is under investigation by the International Criminal Court for genocide and crimes against humanity. The Imo State gubernatorial election allegedly stolen by APC leadership with more votes cast than registered voters may be the last straw. The United States and the International community will have their eyes in the Nigerian Supreme Court on Tuesday to learn whether it will stand up for an independent judiciary steadfast against political manipulation”

They might overturn the decision. The abracadabra that happened in Imo State leaves more to be desired.


The Supreme Court goofed on that judgement.

No matter what happens every sensible person should be thinking of leaving Nigeria unless he is incapacitated, the lifeless thing that fools elected to salvage Nigeria has completely destroyed Nigeria beyond repairs.
I wish you all could see what I am seeing.
