Merely look at this caption (head line), we can call it hate speech because is he the only first judge to dismiss a case or what do you mean? Maybe he dismisses the case Base on the credibility or other things. So, you can’t just tag him with such name. Congrats to them.
May God comes to our aid on this COVID-19 issue because we have lost a lot of people, I wish those who lost their lives to this pandemic eternal rest and grant those remaining ones quick recovery.

I plead with him to discharge his duties with the fear of God and without fear of whose ox is gored having always at the back of his mind that we will all give account of all our deeds in this world
I hope he was elevated based on merit and not because of the case that he threw out against Atiku in favor of Buhari
