Rivers State Governor Nyesom Wike has presented 29 new Renault Koleos 2020 sport utility vehicles (SUVs) to chairpersons of the state’s customary courts, Igbere TV reports.

The governor said the vehicles were given to the judicial officers to enable them to discharge their functions unhindered.

He asked them to operate independently, without influence or intimidation.

“If Nigeria wants to move forward if this country wants development, then we must allow the judiciary to operate independently and do their work,” Wike was quoted as saying in a statement by his spokesman Kelvin Ebiri.

The governor, however, lamented the unwillingness of judicial officers to seek independence in discharging their duties, adding that the judiciary is only seeking independence in the control of their budget.

“Independence is carrying out your job without anybody influencing you,” Wike said.

Commissioner for Justice Zaccheus Adangor commended the governor for his benevolence and support for the judiciary and advised the beneficiaries to continue to administer justice without fear or favour.

On his part, president of the customary court of appeal in the state Gabriel-Nwankwo said the gifts would motivate the judicial officers to perform their work.

Again ?

So much money that we don't know what to do with it in Nigeria

Damnnn niggarrrr
Isoright....
So that the judiciary can be at his beck and call

Why!!!!! Why are we cursed with bastards as leaders.

Education is slacking , health care facility has collapsed,security is fuvked,but what this bastard could think of is SUVs for useless judges.

Those suvs would cost at least $40000 .
×29

$1160000 fucking dollars.
Yet health Care is shit.
May this man die of a dreadful disease.

Bleep it is not even innoson this bastard wasted our forex.

Let the sharing continue.

For those of you that still believe in Nigerian government you are fools

Another large scale waste of forex on imported luxuries. I wonder why politicians think Nigerian votes are needed for their election, but Nigerian goods are not enough to gratify their material appetites.

I know wike studied law but is that the main reason he is always buying cars for judges??
Are they the only sets of people that are working or need the cars in that rivers state??

Given to judiciary to manipulate election petitions in his favour...

Nonessential gesture.

Tumilli:
Why Governor's dey always buy cars for judges

To manipulate election petitions in their favour...

Waste of money.

This man is fucking corrupt and he keeps bribing the judiciary, all he does with river state revenue his to build court complex, housing estates and buy cars for judges , na you and your slave followers sabi sha

It's like this man really love buying SUVs for judges, if I'm not mistaken my facts, this should be the third time, he is doing such extravagant expenditures.

A country that is currently, headquarters of poverty in the world, with so many jobless youths roaming the streets without job.

Some are still even wasting the little available resources on frivolities. Are these judges not without rides before? They are even gainfully employed, and well paid.

Anyways, they should continue.. The end will justify the means.

This man and judges. The way he doles out money and SUV to judges eh

it's good but who send you Mr man
and later now they will be saying Nigeria is owing world Bank so so amount

Since he did it before, he will did it again!!

Wike is working

Misplaced priority

Wike Odogwu

Buying the judiciary

Every governor just Dey buy rides for judges. Continue.

All must chop from the largesse

But to be honest they need it

I love this guy. I want to be like him. A man that despite federal might against him, prevailed twice. A man that knows how to get what he wants.
