May God Bless, Ararume

 

In the days of military rule in Nigeria, the Judiciary was one area, the khaki boys were scared of.

Today, a judge has put PMB in his place. It is sad that people in office get bashed

left, right and centre and yet the real crooks remain largely unknown.

NNPC was the cash cow of Nigerian governments.

Overnight, some people whose intentions I choose not to glorify for the many perfidies of Nigerian governments especially, this PMB regime, chose to advise government to incorporate a public company owned by Nigeria, under Company and Allied Matters Act (CAMA).

They forgot that with CAMA, it cannot be business as usual.

In spite of CAMA, PMB fired Ifeanyi Ararume, the chairman of the new entity incorporated in line with CAMA.

This man who may not have been a darling of the long suffering people of Imo State, chose not to acquiesce like most other Igbo public office holders and went to court.

In an era where a Chief Justice can be hounded out of office like a scoundrel, a justice chose to toe the path of honour and delivered Justice to Ararume.

If PMB likes let him respect the law. If he likes, let him disrespect the law.

Ararume is a hero for going to court and not turning tail.
