Mynd44:How exactly was GEJ sworn in as acting president? Was there any constitutional amendment? The worse is that Justice Onoggen will act in acting capacity as long as possible. This is not even the first time something like this will be happening. It happened when Yaradua was sick and the outgoing CJN swear in the incoming CJN 1 Like |

Mynd44:Chief justice of Nigeria Aloysius Katsina-Alu was sworn in as the CJN using the doctrine of necessity in January 2010 when Yaradua was sick and unavailable. He was sworn in by the outgoing CJN Justice Kutigi.A presidential dereliction of duty will be argued and the NJC will proceed to swear in the next CJN. We already have a precedent 1 Like |

saintmark88:My dear the constitution says the president appoints on the recommendations of the NJC. It does not in any part of the constitution give him the powers to reject the nomination. Just like the CJN is empowered by the constitution to swear in the president-elect.Are you now saying after a president is elected at the polls,the CJN can chose to reject him and refuse to swear him in? That article you read was just a writers opinion and not in the constitution 1 Like |

kcnwaigbo:Hope U dont have cognition challenges! By virtue of Section 231 of the 1999 Constitution, it is the prerogative of the president to appoint a CJN. Section 231(1) explicitly provides: “The appointment of a person to the office of Chief Justice of Nigeria shall be made by the President on the recommendation of the National Judicial Council (NJC), subject to confirmation of such appointment by the Senate.” However, in law, the president is not bound to accept his nomination. He also cannot bypass the council in making the appointment. If for any reason, the president does not want to appoint the recommended justice, he is at liberty to ask the NJC to recommend to him another suitable candidate for the office. The disparities r clear even to the blind!! So does CJN have the power to reject swearing of President-elect? 4 Likes 1 Share |

President99:You are yet to show me where in the constitution the president is given the right to reject the nomination!! The laws says the appointment of the CJN SHALL be made by the president. The word shall denotes compulsion. It is only the Senate that is constitutionally empowered to reject the nomination You will need to research on the legal implications of the word "SHALL" and how different it is from "MAY" 1 Like |

Justice Aloma Mukthar was one of the dissenting Justices along with Onnoghen and Oguntade that annulled Yar'Adua and Jonathan's Election. Yet when she was nominated to be CJN, Jonathan recognising the need for separation of powers promply accepted it and forwarded her nomination to the Senate making her the 1st female CJN. Because a couple of state election petitions didn't go their way, these dolts in govt want to bring down the nation's hallowed Supreme Court 2 Likes 1 Share |

The President cannot reject a validly-made nomination by the NJC,only the Senate has that power. The 'shall' in that section binds him. We all witnessed the outcome of Amaechi trying to go outside the recommendation of the NJC,as pertain to the Chief Judge of Rivers state. 1 Like |
