You’ve probably heard or even used the quote: “The Judiciary is the Last Hope of the common man or woman”.
It is simple; yet profound as a street version of the maxim of the Rule of Law, that “Both the rich and poor are Equal before the Law” and always.

When we were growing into adulthood in this Nigeria, our Generation had the highest reverence for Judges.
Judges? Ah!
There was a deep reverence for the judges resulting in strong public confidence in the Judiciary in those days.
Times have changed.

What better evidence can one present on the reversal of public confidence in Judges and the Judiciary than the recent contribution of @oagbakoba Dr Olisa Agbakoba, one of the renown former Presidents of the Nigerian Bar Association @NigBarAssoc ?I gasped!

I had a lengthy argument with my late Mom, sister & brother-in-law about the core issue of that article, which was how our society created all her beasts & demons & certainly deserved the consequent corrupt & visionless leadership. #WalterOnoghen #ChiefJusticeOfNigeria
@Naijavote asked (not in her exact words though), "Where do #CorruptJudges come from?" She said that they were first 'unscrupulous & corrupt lawyers'. She also asked where those unscrupulous & corrupt lawyers came from. Her answer was that they were the bad & cheating students.
