The mafia there threw us out,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>The senior lawyer asked the national assembly to make laws for the appointment of senior judges in the country.<\/p>\n<p>Agbakoba noted that there is a distinction between the administration of justice and judicial administration, noting that while the former is the preserve of the judiciary, the federal lawmakers can ensure the enhancement of the latter for fairness and probity through promulgation of laws.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe still mix the administration of justice, which the national assembly cannot interfere, with judicial administration, which the national assembly can make laws,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere should be a law governing the appointment process of senior judges. We can\u2019t leave it to the National Judicial Council. What the constitution says is that once you are 15 years, you are qualified.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut the National Judicial Council and supreme court judges have formed a mafia, and we don\u2019t get there.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith the greatest respect, this is the worst supreme court I have seen in my 45 years of practice.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt has to change. A challenge for the national assembly to enact a law that deals with judicial administration.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI did not say administration of justice, you can\u2019t go there because that is the internal workings of the judiciary but judicial administration, the national assembly can make laws.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou pass a law so that I don\u2019t depend on the chief justice of Nigeria if I want to be a judge, the law will be passed stating the criteria to become a judge.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Over the past few months, the judiciary, especially the supreme court, has been in the news for the wrong reasons over election-related judgments.<\/p>\n<p>In October, Musa Dattijo Muhammad, a retired supreme court justice, in his valedictory speech, faulted the composition of the panel that delivered judgment on the presidential election petitions.<\/p>\n<p>Muhammed also condemned the non-representation of the north-central and south-east zones in the apex court.<\/p>\n<p>The retired judge also complained that the chief justice of Nigeria (CJN) had become too powerful<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Agbakoba said judges of the apex court and the national judicial council
