El-Rufai Alleges Widespread Corruption In Nigerian Judiciary
Former Governor El-Rufai, speaking at the NBA Law Week in Abuja, criticized the Nigerian judicial system for eroding public trust due to delayed justice, biased rulings, and perceived corruption. He argued justice often favors the wealthy and powerful, with frequent manipulation of ex parte orders, particularly in political cases, and accused some lawyers of exploiting the courts. El-Rufai highlighted the growing divide between law and justice, alleging the law is often administered based on the executive's wishes. He urged legal professionals to introspect on their roles and ensure impartial justice, free from executive influence.
