The President-elect, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (rtd) plan to set up special courts to prosecute sundry tax evasion cases and official graft.
The courts, which will be in the Federal Capital Territory, would deal strictly with corruption and tax evasion offences by companies, individuals and government officials.
The courts are expected to lift the burden of excruciating and delayed trials of offenders by regular courts so that the next government can get fast results in its avowed war against corruption.
How una see this matter?
Are you in support of this?
Nigeria is now operating a democratic system of government with separation of powers. There are strict legal procedures for doing things; the executive is not allowed to willy-nilly interfere in judicial matters. All three tiers of government must approve the plan.
