President Muhammadu Buhari has called on the Judiciary to step up its anti-corruption drive to compliment his administration’s war against corruption in Nigeria.
The President made the call in Makurdi, the Benue State capital at the First Memorial Lecture in honour of Late Justice Alhassan Idoko, a former Chief Judge of the state between 1985-1999.
Represented by Governor Samuel Ortom, President Buhari advocated an inclusive fight and whistle blower’s campaign against anybody allegedly involved in corrupt practices.
Speakers at the lecture urged lawyers to emulate the integrity of Late Justice Alhassan Idoko and his commitment to the Judiciary, as the nation intensifies the war against corruption.
