AMALGAMATING THE ISSUES AT HAND: OF POLICY AND JUDICIAL COUNCIL

Nigeria has a lot of laws. Implementation has always been the problem. Oftentimes, it is the fact that there is no mechanism for implementation or the enforcers of the law are lackadaisical. The Aroism policy, as innovative as it is, might just end up being a useless piece of paper if proper process is not taken swiftly to make it legally enforceable. The leadership should not stick to enactments alone, there should be more orientation on what Zikism is truly about.

Zikism is wholly a spirit of excellence. Victor Odeka, a pioneer Zikite noted that he owes the spirit of excellence seen in his professional career and life and whatever he has achieved in life to the spirit he developed in Zik Hall. It is high time the current generation of Zikites kept the spirit burning instead of shenanigans that amount to nothing.

The Judiciary Arm got constituted following the inauguration of the new administration. The question is: what has been done by them so far? Yes! Zikites are aware of their existence but are they aware of their operations? Are they aware of how to seek redress when aggrieved? There are a lot of questions to ask the Judiciary Arm so far. When is the rule of the court coming? How understandable will it be to the Zik populace?

There is a way to make things work. There is a need for orientation on why the Judiciary is in existence. The Office of the Attorney-General has a role to play in propagating information on various operations of the third Arm. People are breaking provisions of the Constitution, what is the Attorney-General doing? Or else, year in, year out, all we will be having will be Judges and not justice because there will not be any case. Fingers are crossed to see the workability of the third arm. If nothing is done to fix things, the third arm will fade away in a short while.
