The Emir of Kano, Muhammadu Sanusi II, has urged Nigerian judges, particularly justices of the Supreme Court to prioritize the fear of God in their judgements.
Speaking at a public discourse in Lagos State, over the weekend with the theme, “Ethics, Morality And The Law,” Sanusi tasked the legal practitioners to remember that they are accountable to God.
The Monarch urged the judges to be upright and should not allow hatred for people to make them do what is not right.
He also urged them to focus more on substantive justice, and not rely on technicalities.
Sanusi said: “Do not be an advocate for wrongdoers and do not be an advocate for those who deceive themselves, because Allah does not love sinful wrongdoers.
“When your friends come to you, when government comes to you, and you listen to them and you tilt judgement in their favour. Ask yourself, who will be your advocate before God, on the Day of Judgment?
Gistmania reports that the event was held in honour of Justice Habeed Abiru who was recently elevated as a justice of the Supreme Court.
