The Deputy Governor of Edo State, Comrade Philip Shaibu, on Friday, described the Nigerian Judiciary as the referee of Nigeria’s democracy noting that it protects the minorities from the power of the majority, despite their attempts to tilt the playing field against the rules.
Comrade Shaibu, who was reacting to the Supreme Court judgement on Friday, that reaffirmed the victory of Governor Godwin Obaseki in a landmark judgement, said the Supreme Court displayed decisional and institutional independence which underscores the ability of the judiciary to make decisions free from political influence.
He said: “The ruling of the Supreme Court has shown that the Judiciary does not lack teeth. The rule of law is the strong pillar and rock on which Nigeria’s democracy stands. Every other foundation is made of sinking sand because the judiciary is no longer bound by artificial limitations.”
