Due Process, Rule of Law and Impunity - by Nasir Ahmad El-Rufai

Written by Nasir Ahmad El-Rufai    

The focus of this column is the analysis of policy issues with facts and figures to enrich debate for better governance of our country. It was determined to avoid commenting on current issues no matter how topical and controversial. Indeed, the column would prefer a reflective, facts-based approach to issues that have been hotly debated and then sidelined, but in need of deeper or broader analysis. We are making an exception this week. This is because the recent attacks on due process and rule of law in Nigeria and abroad are threats to stability, peace and governance everywhere. After all, Dr. Martin Luther King made it clear decades ago, that an injustice to anyone anywhere, is an injustice to everyone everywhere!
