#AllEyesOnTheJudiciary slogan not offensive to a right thinking person, says Atedo Peterside

 Atedo Peterside, founder of Stanbic IBTC Bank Plc and Anap
Foundation, says the “All Eyes On The Judiciary” slogan recently seen on
billboards across the country is far from being offensive.

 

The Advertising Regulatory Council of Nigeria (ARCON) had
ordered the removal of billboards with the messaging as sponsored by a group
known as the Diaspora’s for Good Governance.

 

The advertisements were put up as the presidential election
tribunal prepares to deliver its verdict on the petitions challenging the
victory of President Bola Tinubu in the general election.

 

ARCON also dissolved its Advertising Standards Panel and
suspended the director and deputy director of regulations for approving
billboards targeted at the presidential election petition tribunal.

 

In a tweet on Friday, Peterside said the slogan should not
have been offensive to a right-thinking person.

 

“For the record, methinks #AllEyesOnTheJudiciary is a
neutral slogan that should ordinarily not offend a right-thinking and sincere
person in a civilised society,” he said.

 

“I can understand someone rejecting a negative slogan like
let us turn our noses up at the judiciary’.

 

 “Enough said.”
