bdon123: This one doesn't understand governance at all.He tinks governance means it'se n my friends turn to loot n enjoy.D people mist be first before some stupid professional colleagues of urs
gare: Do you even understand the issue? Supporting Wike is your choice, but his actions are wrong. If the government decides to pursue previous Chief Justices who misappropriated funds meant for judges' welfare, that's entirely justified. However, siding with Wike is your personal decision, not mine. What he is doing is fundamentally wrong.
Edygrin: If this same government decide to go after the previous Chief justices who refused to take care of judges under them I'm sure you will be part of those that'll say the government is trying to intimidate the judiciary.
There's nothing this government will do that there won't be criticism, reason I love how Wike is going about it, he doesn't listen to you all.
gare: The importance of the separation of powers and budgetary independence among the three arms of government: the Executive, the Judiciary, and the Legislative. The argument is that each branch should manage its own affairs within its allocated budget to maintain autonomy and prevent undue influence or dependency.
When the Executive branch, represented by individuals like Wike, takes on responsibilities typically managed by the Judiciary, it raises concerns about overreach and undermines the independence of the Judiciary. Such actions might set a precedent that could erode the principle of checks and balances.
If the Executive builds houses for the Judiciary, consistency would require similar support for the Legislative arm, which is not the norm. This inconsistency could lead to perceptions of favoritism or misuse of executive power.
While the intention behind building houses for judges might be well-meaning, it's crucial to uphold the principles of separation of powers and budgetary independence to maintain the integrity and effective functioning of government institutions. Encouraging each branch to manage its own affairs within its budget can prevent potential overreach and ensure a balanced and fair governance system.
Edygrin: What's wrong with Wike building houses for judges?
The president is living in a palatial palace in Aso Rock, the vice president just built himself a mansion using billions of tax payers money, the senators and HoR members are living in large houses also, why then should our judges live like peasants?
Recall that the Minister of Federal Capital Territory, Chief Nyesom Wike, has been flayed for building houses for judges in Abuja, when he has cases in court.
The whereabouts of Dr Fabian Ihekweme, the immediate past Commissioner for Foreign Affairs in Imo State known for publicly criticising Governor Hope Uzodinma, still remains unknown amid conflicting reports of arrest by officers of the Nigeria Police Force (NPF) and abduction by unknown gunmen.
ArcSEMPECJ: Wish you are in the right echelon with me to discuss this but sorry ,your line of argument does not show you want to be educated concerning your confusion....
Former President Goodluck Jonathan has stated that though antagonism is a common experience faced by leaders, the political war staged against the Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, would eventually make him emerge as a “general in politics.”
chrisxxx: Wike didn't underrate Fubara. Both of them are not good people in their ways. A betrayer is not a good person. An overbearing person is also not a good person.
Stomoney: Yeah of course, Wike has more political enemies in River state with his godfather mentality and I think Governor Fubara should work with those stakeholders
