He said SAN must not use delay tactics to slow down justice and advised SANs to be fair in their conducts.
Former Nigerian Higher Commissioner to the United Kingdom, Dr. Christopher Kolade, mentioned leadership is an influence of connection involving leaders and followers hence both leaders and followers should pursue the identical purpose.
