Femi Falana Lampoons NBA, Criticizes It Of Nepotism.
The Senior Advocate of Nigeria
while in an on-air interview on Arise TV said the institution has become more
or less a rubber stamp of a government in power.
The SAN queried sarcastically, “which
NBA?, please don’t let us go there” when
he was asked to respond to a question
bothering on NBA to government in
regards to rule of law.
He said the NBA has deviated,
recounting how the institution usually uses her power in the time past to make
the government return to the part of right.
He further said, a lawyer outside
legal uprightness should be morally upright and shouldn’t be found in circle of
character questioned. Therefore, believed a lawyer is also morally bound to
walk away from institutions and individual whose action(s) would portray
disobedient to moral standard and especially rule of law.
He bemoaned the level NBA has
dragged itself low, becoming a tool and a caprice in the hands of government. It
has become a barking dog without tooth, the reason it cannot sanction Attorney
Generals who would play the tune of ‘the man that the piper’ rather obey the
oath of office they took.
He maintain that no law flouted
by governments without the support of the Attorney General of that jurisdiction.
