A former speaker of the Imo state house of assembly, Hon. Ike Ibe has stated that the operators of laws in Nigeria pose a major threat to the nation.
In a recent Global TV program, ‘Nigeria’s Situation in Perspective’, the 2023 Imo state governorship candidate, emphasized that the Nigerian constitution is not the problem.
“The problem of a nation like Nigeria is not the constitution or laws, but the operators of the laws”. He said.
Weighing in on the recent Supreme Court decision on local government autonomy, Ibe insisted that the decision was only an affirmation of the provisions of the constitution.
“The Constitution of the country already defines the local government as the third tier of government and independent, therefore, the Supreme Court affirmed this.” Ibe stated.
The former Imo state trade representative in the United States also berated the establishment of a committee to oversight the implementation of the apex court’s decision, stressing that such recommendations would only turn the laws “upside down”.
Ibe added; “We have a plethora of constitutional provisions that are not implemented and when they are not implemented we have problems.
“We have to find a way of putting people that understand governance in government, people who believe in the Constitution”.
Furthermore, he blamed the judiciary for abetting this practice, stressing that judges are “Ministers in the temple of justice” who should not be influenced by relationships or personal gains.
“The judiciary, legislature and executive are part of the problems and the citizens are suffering from it”. He concluded.
