Today, the Supreme Court set a precedent: a governor or president can have multiple allegiances to states other than Nigeria and still be the chief security officer of Lagos or Nigeria.
While i submit to this shocking decision of the Supreme Court, I worry for what this precedent holds for future generations being led by leaders with conflict of interest and loyalty.
There is no Liberal Democracy that will accept to be led by an individual who has sworn an oath of allegiance to another country.
Citizens should not have to contemplate the loyalty of their commander in chief or the chief security officer of their state. That said, as the court pleases 🙏🏾.
