The Chief Justice of Nigeria, Tanko Muhammad, has stated the good performance of the Judiciary has prevented the current democratic status of the country from collapsing.
Muhammad disclosed this on Monday during 2021 All Nigeria Judges’ Conference in Abuja, expressing that it is essential for judges to be incorruptible and dispense justice without fear or favour and in line with the knowledge and understanding of the law.
The CJN further urged the judges to rise and restore public confidence by maintaining an incorruptible judiciary.
According to him, Nigerian judges should stop giving unnecessary ex-parte orders as this projects the judiciary in a bad light.
