NWAOBOSHI ON WAR PATH WITH NIGERIAN JUDICIARY.

By Femi Okenhla.

The embattled Senator representing Delta North Senatorial District and Senate committee chairman on Niger Delta, Barr. Peter Nwaoboshi, is on a war path with the Nigerian judiciary.

Barr. Nwaoboshi who on Wednesday this week lost a case at the Federal High court, Abuja where his nomination by the PDP as their candidate was challenged by a former member of the House of Representatives and multi-billionaire politician, Hon Ned Nwoko, blamed the judiciary for his loss.

In a press conference addressed by the Senator who has multiple cases in different courts in the land especially those that bothers on murder, embezzlement and abuse of office, accused the judiciary of "judgement racketeering". He stated that the judgement against him was bought and vowed to deal decisively with the Judge.

Our source from top Judges who spoke on condition of anonymity stated that group of judges were clearly unhappy with the accusation leveled against the judiciary by a senator that carries huge moral burden. According to him, "the judges have vowed to followup with every case involving Senator Nwaoboshi to ensuring that justice is served within the shortest possible time.

It was further stated that it was Senator Nwaoboshi who actually made attempt to bribe the Judge few days to the judgement, if not for the principled and incorruptible stand of the Judge in question.

One of the Judges who does not want his name in prints frowned at the allegation levelled against them by Nwaoboshi and vowed that the judiciary will not fold their arms and allow desperate politicians to ridicule them to serve their evil agenda. "A responsible citizen who is not satisfied with a particular pronouncement of the court has the option of seeking redress through a higher court and not to throw mud at an institution for carrying out its constitutional duties". He also drew the attention of politicians to the fact that Judges cannot be intimidated neither will they succumb to their antics.
