@justicecrack: A few days ago, the President and the FCT Minister presented 40 houses to Court of Appeal judges as a goodwill gesture. As much as this is a commendable initiative, I would like to respectfully appeal to the President and the Minister to consider extending similar gestures to other groups who have dedicated their lives to serving our nation. I am referring to retired police officers, lecturers, teachers, principals, and especially doctors—men and women who have sacrificed so much for Nigeria and contributed immensely to nation-building. If this kind of support can be extended to them, it would not only improve their welfare but also boost morale and encourage a greater spirit of service among those currently serving. From reports, billions of naira were invested in the housing project for the judges. While I acknowledge that the judges deserve recognition and support, I believe it would be even more impactful if similar investments were made across other critical sectors. This is simply my opinion. I am not suggesting that the Court of Appeal judges do not deserve these houses—they absolutely do. I only believe that the government should broaden such interventions to include other public servants who have also contributed significantly to our country’s development. Some Nigerians have raised concerns and speculated about the motives behind the gesture, with some even suggesting it could be an attempt to influence the judiciary. Personally, I do not subscribe to that view. However, expanding such initiatives to other sectors would help eliminate suspicion and demonstrate that the government values all who serve the nation. Nigeria will be better when we recognize and reward service across every sector, not just a few.
