A former Nigerian senator, Adamu Bulkachuwa, has spoken publicly for the first time after his confession to influencing his wife’s decisions while she was serving as the President of the Court of Appeal.
Zainab Bulkachuwa was the President of the Court of Appeal between 2014 and 2020. She retired from the court after clocking the mandatory retirement age of 70.
Speaking at the valedictory session of the 9th Senate on 10 June, Mr Bulkachuwa boasted of infringing on his wife’s “freedom and independence” while she served as president of the appellate court.
