Those who have left the substance of the matter, which is non-declaration of assets, to embark on a wild goose chase must know that they are part of the problems of this country.
Those cheering the CJN have been busy trying to depict the issue as executive interference in another arm of government.
They are failing to realise an important fact that those who have the privilege of holding exalted offices in trust for the rest of Nigerians should lead by example.

It was speculative for some commentators to think that the CJN was being targeted so that he could be removed and replaced with someone who will work in the interest of the government in the February elections.
The most important question should be whether the CJN broke the law or not in failing to declare his assets.

One major and incontrovertible fact which has emerged from the controversy over the CJN’s alleged failure to declare his assets is his own reported admission that he made a mistake by forgetting to declare a number of his assets.
The number one judicial officer is also reported to have expressed ignorance about the time space within which he should have made the declaration.”


We are not talking of a magistrate or a high court judge but a judge of the Supreme Court, who happens to be the number one judicial officer of the land; we must forget sentiments and look at facts.”

The posturing of some South-South governors in defence of the CJN should be treated as treason since they swore to protect and preserve the constitution.

There was a country!

Please do not turn reason on its head because of political expediency and senseless support...

Nobody is absolving the CJN of wrongdoing, all we are saying that it is not the prerogative of the President to suspend the CJN but the NJC

Please answer below posers

1) Has Buhari himself declared his assets?
2) can any lawyer suspend Buhari without recourse to the National assembly
3) why hasn't Buhari hurriedly suspended and prosecuted the corrupt elements around (read the article)

I understand your desperate need to support Buhari, but grow some brains whilst doing it

My friend you are getting it all wrong, you don't use corruption to fight corruption, acting aside the Constitution is a greater corruption on the part of the president, because I he swore an Oath to defend it.

Besides you don't know if the money in the account are proceeds of corruption or not, let Mr president follow due process

I concur. Indeed for the rest of us the question will always be whether he committed a breach of law or not

..The same hammer wii certainly go round including landing on your head if you dont act

Well it has been landing on our heads since time immemorial. Its only when it land on them that we cry for them!!!

drlateef:



What an illiterate you are? Onoghen was suspended, not removed. That's a lacuna is the law. The law does not talk about suspension. You must remember that the courts also make laws where they find a lacuna in the constitution. A former CBN governor was also suspended by Jonathan, it was argued that this was also not known to law. The difference here is that Jonathan did not rely on the law courts to make his pronouncement. He did it by himself, making himself the law giver. Yet nobody shouted and pulled down the roof. Buhari relied on the law court pronouncement, so he is better than Jonathan in that respect. The law court pronouncement has become the law as it is. That's why I call you an illiterate.

How come supposedly educated individuals juxtapose the office of a CBN governor who is an appointee of the executive arm of government to a whole Chief judge who is the head of another arm of government of it's own just like the Senate president ?

The Nigerian education system is in trouble for us to have people like you.

Lol@"landing on our heads" ..take it easy..

My question is :has BUHARI Declare his own assets? The answer is capital NO. THIS is pure and clear oppressor in the highest order. You didnt declare your own asset and you are sacking someone that ve thesame offeNce with you. BUHARI the PHARAOH of our time. A TYRANT practising a TYRANNY KIND of government. The same BUHARI did not do any thing to the following peopple during his tenure (1)BABACHIR LAWAL-The man that spent 270million to cut grass in an enviroment. Just to cut grass. (2)GOVERNOR GANDUJE OF KANO STATE. He collected milli0ns of dollars as bribe and the whole world watch the VIDEO EVIDENCE :Only for BUHARI to travel to POLAND to tell the whole world that, GANDUJE is a good man of GOD that can never steal money (3)what about EDO STATE GOVERNOR, OBASEKI, who budgeted 7billion as the money, he will be spending on travelling to all the countries, in the world, just in the year 2019.TO my suprise, buhari has never taken any action against all the aforementioned above.LEST, I forget what bout AMEACHI, FASOLA, MUAZU thay defects from PDP TO APC. INfacts, am tired of counting.

All these noise sef...

When the president was busy breaking rules, the judiciary system failed to act. Now that they hammer have fallen on them, they are busy quoting constitution.

exactly, they are all patners in crime. it was a judge who sign the order preventing the state house of assembly from looking into ganduje, nobody quoted the constitution then.
they remember the law when their as.s is on fire.

Was he impeached! “NO”
The CJN was taken to court..

That’s why I said
Common sense is not common.
Common sense will tell you..
