Why Buhari must endorse Onnoghen as substantive CJN now—Prof Oyebode
Wants him to sack Magu, says he’s not irreplaceable
International Law and Jurisprudence scholar, Prof Akin Oyebode on Monday advised President Muhammadu Buhari to send without any further delay the name of the acting Chief Justice of Nigeria (CJN), Justice Walter Onnoghen to the senate for confirmation just as he counselled him to sack the acting Chairman of EFCC, Ibrahim Magu to restore Nigerians’ confidence in his fight against corruption.

Oyebode who asked President Buhari to take his advice seriously said Magu is not irreplaceable while he would have no reason not to appoint Justice Onnoghen as substantive CJN because the jurist is qualified to hold the position and has been recommended to him by the relevant authorities.

On Magu, Oyebode called on President Muhammadu Buhari to look for an alternative credible candidate to replace the acting chairman of EFCC, Ibrahim Magu to restore Nigerians’ confidence on his fight against corruption.

Professor Oyebode who made the call while speaking on a television programme in Lagos however said that there appeared to be an operational dysfunction amongst the agencies in the presidency where “the left does not know what the right is doing and the right does not know what the left is doing.”

He said that the president ought to have been briefed on the security report about Magu since Directorate of State service works on advisory role to the presidency.

Buhari should with alacrity send Justice Onnoghen's name to the Senate for confirmation if he still wants us not to see him as President of the North.

On Magun, I reserve my comment.

Pmb is busy looking for a northern replacement that's why he has not sent his name to senate. Besides thats also why he treated the victoriose super falcons so shabbily cos most of then are from his so cald 5/.
