La défense de Jean Marie Michel Mokoko avait qualifié cette intervention du ministre de la justice de faute morale. Dans la même logique, Guy Romain Kimfoussia avait perçu à travers cette déclaration, une pression de l’exécutif sur le pouvoir judiciaire. Dans sa réponse à ses deux détracteurs sur RFI, Pierre Mabiala n’y est pas allé avec le dos de la cuillère : « en ma qualité de ministre de la justice, je détiens des prérogatives exorbitantes qui me permettent de donner à tout moment d’injonctions au parquet aux fins d’engager ou de faire engager des poursuites judiciaires. Il ne revient donc pas à un avocat de s’opposer au pouvoir reconnu par la loi à un garde des sceaux.
