The National Judicial Council (NJC) Wednesday dismissed the allegations of false and non-declaration of assets brought against the suspended Chief Justice of Nigeria, Justice Walter Onnoghen. In a statement by the Director of Information, NJC, Soji Oye, the council described the allegations relating to assets declaration levelled against Justice Onnoghen as subjudice and consequently, abstained from considering them. The decision was reached at the NJC emergency meeting convened to consider the report of the five-man committee constituted to investigate the allegations of misconduct made against Justice Onnoghen and the Acting CJN, Justice Tanko Muhammad. The Council also said to have reached a decision on the petitions written by Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) against Justice Onnoghen. While the council has conveyed its decision to President Muhammadu Buhari, it has however resolved that considering the nature of the decision reached, it would be inappropriate to make it public before conveying it to Buhari. Thus, it is not certain what the Council has emerged with on the said petitions. One Dennis Aghanya had petitioned the Code of Conduct Bureau (CCB) earlier in the year, alleging that Justice Onnoghen breached the public service rule by failing to declare some of his assets as stipulated by law. https://m.guardian.ng/news/njc-dismisses-onnoghen-assets-declaration-petition/ |

IkalaiyeLOTO:There are two different cases, EFCC and CCT. The only reason they abstained from the CCT case is because it is currently being litigated. 7 Likes 3 Shares |

Njc should have disclosed their decision to we the citizens of our dear country nigeria rather than handing it over to president buhari, since buhari is the major brain behind the allegations leveled against the cjn.you don't hand an accused over to his accuser. 8 Likes 3 Shares |

Onnoghen will never return as the CJN. Those who advised him that he could confront the GCFR are his real enemies. At the end, he may lose his pension and also end up in the same cell with dasuki. EFCC has not even started with him. 2 Likes |
