While I’m glad the appeals court upheld my constitutional right to contest for the office of president of our country, I’m shocked at the blatant and arrogant display of power exhibited by the administration in the removal of the CJN and shamefully, Justice Tanko Mohammed accepts to be sworn in.
They attempted removing the head of the legislative arm now it’s the judiciary. Atiku is NEXT.
Wait and see.
