He accused some judges of compromising their integrity to appease their paymasters, stating that such actions are a disservice to their profession. “You claim to be legal luminaries and know the truth, yet you twist the law to satisfy your benefactors,” he remarked.
Fubara emphasized that judges are representatives of God and must dispense justice impartially. “The law regarding governance issues is under the jurisdiction of the State High Court, regardless of involvement from bodies like INEC or the police. I may not be a lawyer, but I understand this. If you claim to be doing the right thing, remember: God will judge you,” he warned.
He further explained, “Judges, you embody the divine presence we see. Your duty is to defend us and tell the truth.” He cautioned that failing to uphold justice would lead to significant consequences.
The governor also praised the Rivers State Judiciary, especially the High Court, for its support of his administration amid various challenges. “I thank the Rivers State Judiciary, particularly the High Court, for your support in keeping this administration afloat,” he stated.
Fubara acknowledged the threats faced by some judges, including harassment and unfounded professional petitions, underscoring the challenges they endure.
