Nigeria doesn't keep their laws nobi same court ordered release of MNK ndi ara

The Zoological republic. Yesterday it was IG of police today it’s COAS. Banana republic!

High court is under weed

All those cows and their traitors should be in jail. jailthemall

These judgements not just this one should be seen as revolutionary acts by the judges.The heads of agencies in Nigeria should see themselves as public servants and operate within the ambit of the law.

Looks like Nigeria is slowly waking up, unless it's a joke else it's a good sign of the good future to come.

they will order the arrest and sentence of the President

This one Dem dey arrest everyone

Please we need the presence of the US special forces in Nigeria and their base.

About what?

Who will do the arrest, Nigerian judges are gradually becoming comedians.

Which Judge is ordering all these arrest warrants.

When will you order MBuhari arrest. Since everyone else has received theirs.

Gradually we are going there, we are waiting for you to order arrest of Mr president for negligence

Courts are showing power now like say dem send dem

We are waiting for this 'court orders' to be executed. Also for that given by the court to arrest the IGP for same reason. Unfortunately in Nigeria, there are many 'untouchables' to whom court judgements mean absolutely nothing.

who's going to carry out that order

Audio arrest

Audio arrest

🤣🤣🤣 we are waiting

Hahaha. A civilian court ordering the arrest and detention of a military officer? Haba! There was once a country indeed.😂😂😂😂.

He that chase 2 Rabbits at the same time will end up catching none. Tinubu is sick & unwell, you cannot vote for him & expect him to perform high like healthy Peter Obi,It won't work. Use your Votes chase for Peter Obi put him in power, at the end, you loose nothing. Be Obidient

Now I see that our court's are ready for 2023

Another wasted verdict

It is the way of the jackboots. They remain recalcitrant. Oputa Panel, Lekki killing session, now contempt of Court. Intransigence is committed by Fulani soldiers. 1999 decree constitution was produced by Fulani. What we gather with the rake, they throw away with a shovel

😅 who is ganna make the arrest

Who is going to do the arrest?

Make una arrest all of them o, e remain Navy, NNPC, Immigration and airfoce

Have they arrested EFCC chairman?

Why do Nigerian military encourage double standard practices?

The rule of law & justice

WHO IS THE SERPENT BEHIND ALL THIS COURT ARREST?

All these judgements is more like making caricature of our judicial system. First it was EFCC boss, later IGP now this. This is not good for a nation.

But the Akwa Ibom lawyer was made to go to prison immediately. Selective justice in Nigeria. This one is another fruitless effort.

Lol then order police ig to go do spar session for prison, now this.. Netflix suppose dy pay us steady abeg

High Court is on prison sentence rampage .. next thing now na to imprison on sight

First, it was the EFCC chairman, and then, the IGP. Now it's the COAS. Maybe it'll buhari next?

Waiting dey worry High Court pipo, wen dem dey give Arrest wen nor dey work

All institutional heads under this regime are sentenced to prison. What is going on?

Nigerian court dey craze

As Emperor Buhari's term is drawing to a close, sleepy courts of law will suddenly start finding their voice again and acting as they should since 7 years ago.

Comic relief.

Formal SA president dey jail for contempt but here who will make the arrest..... except Mr president issue the directive.

I wasted my data reading this shit

All these looks like a joke to me cuz he’s above the law. They don’t respect the judiciary

*Nobody is above the law...* In Nigeria you can't be too sure. Vote PeterObiForPresident2023
