The Human rights advocate said this in an interview on Channels Television breakfast programme, Sunrise Daily. He also tasked members of Nigerian Bar Association of Nigeria (NBA) to rise up to their duties. He added it is not the responsibility of a president or even an attorney general to handpick which court order to obey. “In my latest compilation, I’ve compiled about 32 court orders being disobeyed flagrantly by the government of Nigeria which is not in line with the rule of law. “It doesn’t lie in the mouth of an attorney general or the president of a country to choose and pick which orders of court to obey. “When you do that, you are reducing the status of the country to a banana republic.
