THE National Judicial Council, NJC, has suspended seven senior judges arrested in October by the State Security Service for alleged corruption.



The NJC had initially refused to suspend the judges despite public pressure, saying the allegations against them had not been substantiated.

It however said the judges had voluntarily stepped down from court sittings.

The latest decision came after the council’s 7th meeting between Wednesday and Thursday.

A communique issued at the end of the meeting, and signed by NJC’s Director of Information, Soji Oye, said the decision was taken to avoid allowing persons under investigation to to partake in presiding over judicial matters at the same time.

Seven judges were arrested on October 7.

Thank God for Buhari.

The modest success we've recorded in the fight against corruption is an indication of bigger success we could have had if the Judiciary, legislature and other other sectors of the economy support this genuine man.

Unfortunately, we have the usual suspects to always cry of witch hunt and rule of law each time a criminal is being dealt with. They will support anyone and anything having corruption hanging on their neck.

The lost tribe of Yisreal they are.
