‘I Was The Highest Beneficiary Of Incorruptible Judiciary’ – Peter Obi by BeeBeeOoh(op): 8:08pm On May 14, 2024
The presidential candidate of the Labour Party in the 2023 general election, Mr Peter Obi, said he was the highest beneficiary of the judiciary in the country when there were incorruptible judges.

Obi stated this during Justice Anthony Aniagolu’s Memorial Lecture, organised by the family and hosted by Godfrey Okoye University, Enugu, on Tuesday.

Delivering a lecture on the topic “The Judiciary and the Future of Nigeria,” Obi said he won the election in Anambra State while another candidate was declared the winner and he approached the court for justice.

I spent three years in court and it was given to me, and after a few months, I was impeached but the judiciary restored me to power. After one year in office, they conducted another election and elected another person.

But I went to the Supreme Court, where judges, with respect for the rule of law, reinstated me to complete my tenure.

All these things happened because there were incorruptible and independent judges,” he said.

The former Anambra governor, who noted that such jurists were hard to find in present-day Nigeria, said: “Our judiciary is weak and compromised by the executive and highest bidder.”

According to him: “The future of our society is compromised because the independence of the judiciary has been destroyed.

“We need a strong judiciary to fight criminality. The rule of law is the foundation on which any society survives and develops and the only thing that makes it sacrosanct is the independence of the judiciary. And it is a strong judiciary that makes businesses, investments and democracy thrive.”

He pointed out that the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, was not the problem of Nigeria but the judiciary, whom those denied their rights approached but ended up being disappointed.

Nigeria is finished. No more real justices with a conscience. Every judgment involving politics is adjudicated on technicalities

Some people will soon come and CRY. At the mention of Peter Obi, demons will always manifest themselves.

Incorruptible when you win corruptible when you loose. Why is Bitter Obi campaigning in the north if he actually won there. Why is he not campaigning in SE/SW why North ? Only gullible fall for that cheap SCAM.
Gumi was an acclaimed Terrorist until he met PITOBI and turned to a saint .

The most disgusting thing about this good-for-nothing party in power is that their miscreants have made Nigerians believe that what we are currently going through is the best leadership we can get. Nobody cares about performance! They just want to remain in power and destroy the country! Who cursed these people? 🤔

lolz we all followed the case, Obi couldnt provide one evidence that he won.
Atiku in 2019 had a better chance of winning his court case than Obi does in 2023
Re: ‘I Was The Highest Beneficiary Of Incorruptible Judiciary’ – Peter Obi by DMerciful(m): 10:07pm On May 14, 2024
Obi was not the only one that went to court. Atiku also went. How did his case go?

COMRADES I agree with Peter Obi on his take on the judiciary
His commendation on the judiciary means that was when the judiciary was fair or independent

You just have to love Peter Obi. He is head and shoulders above many people's favourites. That why they can never stop wailing... because he will always be above
