[News] Bulkachuwa’s statement is a monumental disgrace for our institutions, he deserves to be taken up immediately by authorities – Agbakoba slams Bauchi Senator

Olisa Agbakoba, a former president of the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) has lashed out at Senator Adamu Bulkachuwa, after he disclosed that he encroached into his wife, Zainab Bulkachuwa’s independence as the President of the Court of Appeal.

 

Recall that while speaking at the 9th senate’s valedictory session last weekend, Bulkachuwa narrated how he often influenced the decisions of his wife while she was in office and also extended same help to his friends. Reacting to the video which went viral, Agbakoba said it is enough to get the lawmaker arrested. He said;

“Senator Bulkachuwa’s statement at the valedictory of the 9th senate is a monumental disgrace for our institutions. This man deserves to be taken up immediately by the authorities. It is a blight on my confidence in our systems.”

 

Agbakoba also recalled how he lost in 3 courts while representing Usman Tuggar, an APC senatorial candidate, in relation to disputed elections between him and Bulkachuwa for the Bauchi North zone; a case Zainab presided over.

 

He added;

 

“We lost in 3 courts. Senator Bulkachuwa seems to suggest why.

“It remains for President Tinubu to cleanse the system in a most dramatic and fundamental process if he wishes to succeed. The chairman of NDIC has also made dramatic revelations pointing to possible deep rot in our systems of government responsible for financial and monetary policy. The president ought to act now!!”
