In a statement made available to newsmen in Abuja on Sunday, Oke who is the Chairman, House of Representatives Committee on Foreign Affairs also commended the National Assembly and the Minister of Justice and Attorney General of the Federation (AGF) for their support towards a better welfare for the judicial officers.

Oke who had earlier moved a motion on the floor of the House urging for the upward review of welfare packages of judicial officers pointed out the bold action of President Tinubu would further boost the nation’s democratic rules.

He, however, urged the judicial officers to reciprocate the good gesture of the President by being alive to their responsibilities, “bearing in mind that to whom more is given, much more is expected.

According to him, “I can beginning to see a better Nigeria , we at the parliament are doing our best, we moved it and the Executive, seasoned on it and it was approved, so the ball is now in the count of the Judiciary , together we will get to the promised land of our dream.

“Before now, it was a pathetic story for the judicial officers and they have enormous tasks on them, the working environments are terrible, with this development, we are expecting that things will change for the best, no doubt the nation’s judiciary will soon regain its lost glory

“Both chambers of the 10th National Assembly since inauguration have been working round the clock to see our judicial system get the best in order to deepen our democracy, the court is the last hope of the common man.”
