Cleric charges judiciary to save Nigeria from impunity

The Pastor of First ECWA Church, Lokoja, Kogi State, Dr. Frank Paul, has called on the judiciary to rescue the country and its democracy from executive recklessness and dictatorial tendencies by redeeming itself.

He charged them to be firm, fair and resolute in their decisions, as the only way to save the nation’s democracy.

Paul made the call yesterday during a church service organised by the Kogi State judiciary to commemorate the beginning of the 2020/2021 legal year.

According to him, Nigeria needs surgical operation, adding that “only the judiciary can do this operation effectively.”

In his message entitled ‘Be prepared’, the cleric said that people were tired of dictatorship, noting that the judiciary had been castigated and dragged in the mud due to how they handled cases before them.
