Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele Fayose has asked the National Judicial Council to ensure that Taraba State election Tribunal judges must be investigated because such judicial rascality must not go unquestioned.
In a statement Lere Olayinka, Fayose said “Such judicial rascality and conspiracy displayed in Taraba State must not be allowed to go unquestioned.
“Instead of calling for Fayose’s head that they can never get, the judiciary must in the interest of democracy and rule of law purge itself of cash and carry judges that are daily giving tainted and contradictory judgments.
“Those who truncated democracy in Nigeria through military coup must not be allowed to truncate democracy again through manipulation of a section of the judiciary and the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC.
“There are no gods in the judiciary and if Ghana, a smaller country could suspend 22 judges over bribery allegation and probe 12 others, the NJC must not play ostrich to these Salamic judgments being delivered by tribunal judges.
“Those judges, who gave the Taraba State judgment, which is totally against the Electoral Act 2010 (as amended) and the one who took N15 million bribe in Yobe State must be investigated by the NJC.”
