Former Minister of Sports and Youths Development, Solomon Dalung, has likened Nigeria’s institutions to the captives who are in the hands of bandits in the forest.
Dalung stated this on Wednesday when he appeared as a guest in an interview on Trust TV monitored by DAILY POST.
He was reacting to situation of the various institutions of the government in the country.
According to him, the judiciary is worse affected, noting that Nigerians criticize the judiciary heavily.
Dalung, however, stressed that the judiciary is operating in a very toxic and hostile environment.
“Our institutions currently in Nigeria are not different from captives who are currently with the bandits in the forest. That’s how our instructions are.
“If you have watched how bandits put a captive with guns and ask them, can you speak? Can you say this? Then they will go and hit them with guns. Our institutions are under the jack booth of a dictator. And the judiciary is worse affected,” he said.
