A disturbing video has emerged of
Senator Adamu Muhammad Bulkachuwa, the current senator representing Bauchi
North senatorial district, bragging about how he influenced the decision of his
wife, Zainab Bulkachuwa, a retired Justice of the Appeal Court.
Bulkachuwa bowed out of the bench
after clocking the statutory retirement age of 70 years for justices of the
Appeal Court in 2020.
The video showed the statement
was made reportedly during the valedictory session of the Senate.
“Particularly my wife, whose
freedom and independence I encroached upon when she was in office, and she has
been very tolerant and accepted my encroachment and extended her help to my
colleagues,” Bulkachuwa said in the video before he was interrupted by the Senate
President, Ahmed Lawan.
Unsettled by the statement, Lawan
told him, “I don’t think this is a good idea going towards this direction.”
Professor Ndubuisi Ekekwe, who
shared the video on his verified Twitter handle on Monday, said, “we must give
Senator Bulkachuwa a national award as a whistleblower of the month.”
Ekekwe further added that he
hoped that retired Justice Zainab Bulkachuwa would give a press release on how
she was influenced.
He wrote: “Unbelievable that a
senator whose wife was the president of the court of appeal could brag how he
influenced her decisions. He embarrassed the Senate president by revealing the
open truth about Nigeria’s judiciary. We must give Senator Bulkachuwa a
national award as a whistleblower of the month. Hope retired Justice Zainab
Bulkachuwa will give a press release on how she was influenced! What a nation.”
