The Chief Justice of Nigeria (CJN), Justice Olukayode Ariwoola, has cautioned judicial officers against succumbing to either public opinions, emotions or sentiments in the performance of their duties.
Justice Ariwoola said no amount of threat or intimidation should make a judge deviate from the law and do what is unconstitutional and at variance with existing laws.
He spoke in Abuja on Monday, May 20, at the opening session of a two-day workshop organised by the Court of Appeal for the review of the 2023 election petition tribunals/court and appeals.
