Why Nigeria must move on

NIGERIAN TRIBUNE: "As the country gropes in the throes of election disputes and reversal of mandates, realism dictates we must begin to apply some brakes. No doubt, the courts have lived up to their image as the last arbiter of the common man by intervening decisively where the citizenry have been clearly robbed. In states like Kogi, Enugu , Kebbi and others, the courts have restored the confidence in the vote by annulling the false victories of the governors. In Anambra, justice smiled on Governor Peter Obi who not only retrieved his mandate after three years at the court, but also survived the gale of impeachment by the state’s House of Assembly and got his mandate extended to 2010."
