Our reporter/ A former minister of education, Oby Ezekwesili on Thursday called out the Nigerian judiciary for enthroning criminality as official norm in the country.
Ezekwesili’s comment came hours after the country’s apex court affirmed the election of President Bola Tinubu in the face of glaring irregularities that characterized the February 25 presidential election and alleged criminal past of the former Lagos State governor.
Writing via her verified X handle (formerly known as Twitter) @obyezeks, the former World Bank vice president noted that the country now knows the true definition of a Criminal Enterprise Gang.
She, however, urged Nigerians not to despair as history shows that every Criminal Enterprise carries the seed of its eventual deconstruction.
“Now we all know the true definition of a Criminal Enterprise Gang”, she wrote
Some would ask, “Where’s now the hope?” because, what else can Citizens who seek a Good Society now do in the light of judicial enthronement of Criminality as an official Norm?”
“Well, take heart in this fact. History shows that every Criminal Enterprise carries the seed of its eventual deconstruction”.
All. The. Time.
“So, do not be deceived”.
“Nature abhors dishonest gain and knows how to deal with it from the inside”. ✍✍✍
“I am beyond proud of all Citizens from across Nigeria who stood on to the end of this last constitutional phase of the electoral processes”, she had written earlier.
“You are solid proof that Nigeria does have a Remnant among our diverse population who are prepared to sacrifice their time, knowledge and resources to birth a Good and Just Society”.
“As one who wishes every day for Nigeria to Become, I am grateful to you all for staying true to your conviction”.
“Please do not despair. It is okay to feel exhausted but please do not despair”.
“You were the Best of us all the way”.
May your Tribe increase! ✍✍✍
