EXPOSED: Ex- President Jonathan Drops HOT Bombshell, Reveals How Judiciary Stopped Foreigners From Investing In Nigeria
Former President of Nigeria, Goodluck Jonathan, has stated that no businessman would be willing to invest in a country where the judiciary is corrupt. His statement was shared in a post by an X user, Mindset, sparking widespread reactions online.
The post read: ” No businessman can bring his business to a country where the judiciary is corrupt– Former President, Goodluck Jonathan. ”
Jonathan’ s remarks have stirred discussions among Nigerians, with many expressing their concerns over the implications of judicial corruption on economic growth and foreign investments.
Social media users have taken to X (formerly Twitter) to share their opinions on Jonathan’ s statement. Many agreed with his perspective, highlighting how corruption within the judiciary discourages legitimate business operations.
An X user, Aggrieved*Nigerian UWU, commented on the country’ s political landscape, stating: ” For them, they don’ t care… It’ s just about ‘ I must be president’ whether the people like it or not. And for their supporters, it is either about ‘ it is our turn’ or ‘ It’ s about how he has helped me before. ‘ ”
Another user, Drealest, pointed out that while legitimate businesses may avoid such an environment, criminal enterprises could still thrive. ” But a criminal can actually bring his business in and thrive, ” he wrote.
Similarly, Atari. O echoed this sentiment, adding: ” Absolutely no sensible businessman will, except the criminal type. ”
Goodluck Jonathan’ s statement highlights a critical issue in Nigeria’ s investment climate. A transparent and fair judiciary is essential for attracting foreign direct investments (FDI) and ensuring a stable economic environment. Investors require confidence that legal disputes will be handled fairly and without political interference.
Over the years, concerns about corruption within Nigeria’ s judiciary have been raised by international organisations and business communities. Reports of delayed court rulings, bribery, and political influence have led to scepticism among investors.
