Nigeria - Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike has all accused the All Progressives Congress (APC) led federal government of deliberately threatening the foundation of democracy in the country through orchestrated intimidation of the judiciary through false allegations and illegal arrests.
He stated that because of the harassment of judges, no judge would ever deliver judgments against the interests of the Federal Government and the ruling party.
Speaking at the Government House, Port Harcourt yesterday during a courtesy visit by the Port Harcourt Branch of the Nigeria Bar Association, (NBA), Wike warned lawyers against allowing the deliberate destruction of the judiciary under any guise.
According to him, the ruling party and her officials have elevated the art of frivolous petition writing against judges as a means of subverting the course of justice.
