said beyond the provisions of the law, it was necessary to also

weigh the implications at the point of enforcement.

Speaking on a separate platform, MALACHY UGWUAMADU said

emerging information indicate that the DSS acted within the ambit

of law and its scope of operation in arresting the suspected corrupt

judges.

On his part; MELVILLE EBO said Nigerians should not be

surprised about the clampdown on suspected corrupt judges

because President MUHAMMADU BUHARI never promised any

exception in his anti-corruption crusade.

The legal practitioners also did not spare the leadership of the

Nigerian Bar Association based on the manner in which it

responding to the incident, which they considered hasty.

They also slammed the National Judicial Council for not taking

action to save the judiciary from bad eggs within despite several

petitions against some of the suspected corrupt judges.

The lawyers are also in agreement that the latest development

would serve as a springboard for the Nigerian Judiciary to cleans

itself and make a rebound for good.
