Ezekwesili Criticizes Appeal Court Decisions After Conflicting Rulings
-
Former Minister Oby Ezekwesili said Godswill Akpabio would never have become Senator or Senate President without the "rottenness" of the Nigerian judiciary.
-
Ezekwesili was reacting to contradictory appeal court judgments, including upholding the election of Kano State's governor after initially sacking him.
-
The appeal court also sacked the Plateau State governor in a pre-election matter but affirmed the election of the APC governor in the same pre-election matter.
-
Ezekwesili slammed the appeal court judges for allowing themselves to be "corrupted and captured by decadent politicians."
-
Ezekwesili praised opposition senators for raising their voices on matters affecting citizens and said all lawmakers still have a chance to lead the way out of "political class rascality."
