Head of the Presidential Advisory Committee on Anti-Corruption to President Muhammadu Buhari and renowned constitutional lawyer, Professor Itse Sagay is alleging that the judiciary is being manipulated by the executive, he said the independence of the judiciary is just a mere saying. “For instance, a judge can be fired by the person (the President) that puts him there if he gives a judgement that is not pleasing to his party. And because the judge is still interested in his job, he will want to act to the script.”

He also alleged that the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) is being seriously compromised by the politicians in power...“All the INEC officials in Lagos are on the payroll of someone who will ask you what it takes to win. Someone who is ready to give you more than you ask for. It is everywhere but it depends on who can spend more.”

He also did not spare the Department of State Service (DSS) and the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) saying the institutions lack integrity.
He said: “Immediately President Buhari got to Aso Rock, the EFCC and DSS, as if they have not existed before, began to arrest and do all sort of things.
“But if you look at it holistically, are they saying it is only PDP governors and public office holders that are corrupt? No. One thing is that they are doing whatever they are doing to please the President, who can hire and fire them. Which of the governors out of the 36 States is not corrupt? So, why is it that only PDP people are being chased up and down? The anti-corruption crusade is being selective.”

So what else is new, my friend...?

Good to know you have read the said "interview". Do you think that someone as learned as Sagay would carelessly talk like that? A professor of Law cum SAN making wild and unsubstantiated statements in public?

the very fact that there is truth or reality in the message being passed across but it shouldnt have taking this dimension of misrepresenting sagays view...
