THE Presidential Candidate of the Labour Party in the February 25, 2023 election, Peter Obi wrote a long length write-up titled: The Rule of Law and The Credibility of Leadership ostensibly referring to alleged Chicago State University Certificate issues surrounding President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and the possible judgement of the Supreme Court in favour of the President.

Obi in a Press Release available to SOJ WORLDWIDE said,

“In situations where there is public doubt as to the veracity and authenticity of these titles and the claims behind them, it is the judiciary’s role, when called upon, to uphold the honour of the titles through transparent rulings. Only through such judicial interventions can the public be protected from the tyranny of dubious and duplicitous characters and identity fraudsters.”

FULL TEXT

“THE RULE OF LAW AND THE CREDIBILITY OF LEADERSHIP Still on the identity crisis and controversies that have continued to haunt the Nigerian citadel of power since the February 25, 2023 presidential elections.

There is this saying:

“IT IS NOT TITLES THAT HONOUR MEN, BUT MEN THAT HONOUR TITLES.” The lofty titles that decorate people in power have little meaning if there is a hollowness and falsehood underneath them. Such titles which adorn those in public office mean nothing if they are not original and are fake if those who bear them have no honour to support the weight of the titles they carry.

In situations where there is public doubt as to the veracity and authenticity of these titles and the claims behind them, it is the judiciary’s role, when called upon, to uphold the honour of the titles through transparent rulings.

Only through such judicial interventions can the public be protected from the tyranny of dubious and duplicitous characters and identity fraudsters.

In such situations, the judiciary has a bounding duty to protect society’s value system. This is one of the obligations of an impartial judiciary in a democracy. The rule of law remains the lifeblood of democracy in all societies and by whatever definition across time.

It remains the foundation for all our fundamental rights as humans. It is the rule of law that binds society together. The expectation by the high and low alike that their rights will be protected and respected by fair judges in transparent courts is what keeps citizens’ loyalty and belief in democracy. People, irrespective of their station in life, approach the courts whenever they feel their rights are assailed in the expectation that fair courts will render justice to them according to law.

However, when the fairness of the judiciary is not assured, and the transparency of judiciary operatives is uncertain, the rule of law will come under severe threat. Once ordinary people lose faith in the fairness of the judiciary, the rule of law is threatened.

With it, faith in democracy comes under threat as well. A society is endangered when the rule of the powerful and the rule of the rich and the mighty replaces the rule of law. When that happens, justice becomes a commodity to be traded between the rich and powerful and a cult of corrupt judiciary operatives.

When a democracy is based on faulty justice, it opens society to apparent dangers. Governments become subject to impunity and casual violations of the rights of ordinary citizens. The rich and powerful can trample on the rights of the lowly, as there are no consequences for infractions or lawless acts. This can be the groundwork for a democracy to graduate into an autocracy.

US President Joe Biden could not be more apt when he said, “For any young democracy, the most difficult but important step is burying the legacy of tyranny and establishing an economy and a government and institutions that abide by the rule of law.” -PO

The reason Peter Obi attacked the integrity of our judiciary earlier today is because he has seen the handwriting on the wall.

The comments by Justice Okoro and his colleagues have shown that they have not been intimidated by the cyberbullies Mr Obi has rallied to himself. #AllEyesOnTheJudiciary failed to bully their lordships, and Mr Obi has resorted to these feeble attempts to muddy the waters. Peter Obi will lose, and his appeal will be dismissed.

Coup baiting by warning that Nigerian democracy will be under threat if “the transparency of judiciary operatives is uncertain” is such a selfish thing to do.

Must Peter Obi burn the country down because he lost an election that even his home state Governor publicly told him he had no chance of winning despite jumping from church to church asking Christians to “take back your country” as if Nigeria belongs only to adherents of one religion, Peter Obi’s attempt at Yes Daddily instigating “religious war” in Nigeria failed, and his attempt to subtly provoke a military takeover will also end in frustration.

Democracy is not threatened, and there will not be a coup in Nigeria over Peter Obi’s appeal at the Supreme Court, should it be dismissed. If Peter Obi has evidence that our judiciary is corrupt, let him boldly publish it, or forever remain silent and stop trying to set Nigerians against the bench.
