Former Supreme Court Judge, Justice William Atuguba, has expressed concern over the pervasive influence of politics in various sectors across the country.
In an exclusive interview with JoyNews on November 12, he remarked, "In this country, we like to pretend, but politics have entered everywhere." His comments were made in relation to the recent Supreme Court ruling overturning the Speaker's declaration of four parliamentary seats as vacant.
Justice Atuguba highlighted his frustration with how political motivations often override ethical considerations. "These politicians, we know how they operate.
They are not interested in the righteousness of the matter but the party inclination…even if someone knows they are on the wrong side, they will still push it.
