“My First Wife Is A High Court Judge And When People Know This, They Put Pressure” – Senator Adamu
Adamu Bulkachuwa, a senator representing Bauchi North senatorial district, revealed that his wife, Zainab Bulkachuwa, who is the former president of the Court of Appeal, used her position to favor his colleagues in the Senate. He said that he influenced his wife’s decisions while she was in office, adding that she was tolerant and extended her help to his colleagues. While speaking on this in an interview with Channels TV, Senator Adamu claimed that there is always pressure on anyone who is married to a judge.
Speaking further, he said that his first wife is a High Court judge and there is always pressure but he stands against it. He made it clear that Senator Bulkachuwa could have decided to keep quiet on this but he publicly opened up, adding that it will help others to look inwards and rectify their mistakes.
“What he said bothers me but some people are caught in between. My first wife is a High Court judge and when people know that your wife is a judge, especially your friends, they will put pressure on you. We are all humans and it depends on how strong you are to stand against this kind of thing.
Sometimes, when the system is more or less compromised, then you will be tempted but I like the courage of Senator Bulkachuwa for confessing publicly. He could have decided not to talk about it. This will help the system and the people to look inwards and it will also help others that are tempted to do the same.”
