Former President Goodluck Jonathan, has decried the level of decadence in some government institutions and the new culture of asking their critics to go to court when they are called out for doing something perceived to be wrong.

While speaking at a public event recently, the former President stated that when a ‘’thief” asks you to go to court, it invariably means that the judge who is to rule on the matter is most likely their brother and would certainly rule in their favor.

‘’“We see government institutions doing the wrong thing and telling people to go to court. There is this saying in East Africa that if a thief tells you to go to court, he knows that brother is the judge.” he said
