Oby is one hell of a confused person,not knowing where to stand again.
With politicians you don't take a permanent stand, they are not God! When they are right you go with them, when they are wrong you ditch them. That is what the nlble man or woman does. Oby is right.

is it amazing how PDP carry this matter for head like gala? The man suspended is the CJN of Nigeria, not any party, why e dey pain PDP so much? then the allegation must be true that the CJN is a PDP member and the money he forgot to declare was bribe from wike and co.


The CJN is on trial, and he will still be the one to appoint judges to defend himself, is that fair? can he appoint Judges that will be against him? the best thing he should have done is to resign instead of this embarrassment, but I guess the money paid into his account upfront is worth the embarrassment.


And it should be noted that the CJN is to form/inagurate the election tribunal today, how can Pro-PDP judge inaugurate non partisan judges, we all know that's not possible, I am sure this is part of the Dubai strategy and am glad PMB beat them to the game, no wonder PDP are crying fowl. I think they should just boycott the election instead of suspending only the campaign. Goof riddance to rubbish.


The lifeless one turn to the tyrant one, may God confuse your enemy as ipob pigs.


And last last, Buhari will still win this election and nothing will happen, I repeat nothing will happen, just tell those that want to protest or shut down the country to go ahead, we are all moving to the next level, and millions of Ipob pigs and PDP won't stop us.


To the progressives, we will this Battle, no place for criminals, including those in APC, Ganduje, bachir etc will be dealt with at the appropriate time, u can't fight everyone at the same time, no matter how little, u need some people beside u.

politics is a game, in fact, a "rough" game that must be played within the law. I don't know if there is sinister motive behind Onnoghen's suspension but whether there is or not, the Buhari camp with the help of Onnoghen himself has played within the law.
1. the law that vested right on Buhari to appoint CJN also vested on him the right to suspend the same person and also the right to appoint another person to act in his capacity. go and read Nigerian Law interpretation act.
2. the suspended CJN by his position is not expected to be found wanting or claiming ignorant of certain portion of Nigerian law or declared himself not sound in mind(Forgetfullnes)
3. Onnoghen has a written acknowledgement, admitting that he is rightfully accused but sighted forgetfulness which is not recognize by law as excuse.
4. Before the politicians get you into shouting what you don't understand, Onnoghen has only been suspended not sacked
5. it is illegal for the Chief Justice of Nigeria to retain his position while a criminal case to which he has admitted to be guilty is being investigated.

Now let's look outside the law
1. Assuming that Onnoghen is from Kaduna, Katsina or even Kogi and a case like this comes up of which he admit but Buhari decides to retain him, will Nigerians from the east in particular have support and praise Buhari?
2. before you criticize Buhari, remember the Kemi Adeosun's case. ignorant was not taken as excuse then why now.

In as much as u have some valid points,this ur point 1 is totally wrong, i don't know if u are stating the fact or u just did a copy and paste....
Without twisting the issue on ground then leave "what if" out of this context, This is absolutely unconstitutional and tyrannical, check the section 2 of the 1999 constitution of Nigeria,Buhari as a person has no sole power to swear in another chief justice of the federation without consultation from both the NJC and the Attorney General,There are due process to go about this issues and Buhari scored an own goal....
The problem with us is that we bring tribalism in everything we do, mind you, this ain't the case of the Southerners alone but for all Nigerians because our Democracy is at stake!!

This unprecedented constitutional coup should be total condemned by all Nigerians irrespective of our party affiliations.
Believing that there is political undertone behind this act, there is urgent need for us all to rise in condemnation of it because, that it affects PDP today, it might affect another party tomorrow. That it affect the judiciary today, it might be the turn of another arm of govt tomorrow.
In as much as we want a better Nigeria, we must scold and rebuke every action that tends to keep us in this uncivilized democracy.

Please note that the appointment of the CJN and indeed every Judicial officer is an exception to this rule. Judicial officers are appointed by the President only on the recommendation of the NJC and he is removed likewise or by approval of two thirds majority of the National Assembly.

Mr president has not complied with neither provision.

Ask a lawyer what a motion exparte is, and you will understand why there is this outcry!

3.

If there was nothing untoward? Why wouldn't Mr President follow the stipulation of law regarding the removal of a Judicial officer ? Can he then one day remove the Senate president?

HOW TO REMOVE CJN

In the Third Schedule, Part 1, the constitution expressly states the procedure that should be followed in removing the CJN. The process is initiated by the National Judicial Council. According to Third Schedule, Part 1, Section 21 (b), “The NJC shall have power to recommend to the President the removal from office of the judicial officers specified in sub-paragraph (a) of this paragraph, and to exercise disciplinary control over such officers.” The officers listed therein are the CJN, Justices of the Supreme Court, the President and Justices of the Court of Appeal; the Chief Judge and Judges of the Federal High Court.

the law that vested the power to appoint comes before the law guiding the process of removal. and the interpretation of the vest law vested on the person so empowered to suspend as well. Secondly, the process of removal empowered the CJN to appoint about 90% of the members that should decide his fate which is in appropriate.

Your position is flawed on all grounds. The President ought not to act on an Ex-parte order obtained against the head of the judicial arm of government behind his back, when he is available to be heard. These is very wrong, tomorrow a vice-president will be suspended by an ex-parte order of court. Governors will set up such tribunals and use it to suspend the speaker or members of the House of Assembly, CJ or members of other commissions established by the constitution to ensure accountability and due process.
There is definitely ulterior motives, for this desperation, which is constitutionally and legal wrong.

bruh, stop confusing people. buhari can appoint the CJN/justice of the Supreme Court subject to input from the Senate. hence the law you are quoting does not apply here. if anything it makes the case that the Senate should be involved before any suspension of a serving justice.

We call it veto power. A Senate that is contrary to the rule of law. House of criminals with fake certs, undeclared assets etc.
Yes PMB should acted in secondment to the Senate. But despite the confession of the ex CJN, do u think this current Senate would have upheld the law?
