President Muhammadu Buhari has summoned members of the All Progressives Congress in the Senate to a meeting at the Presidential Villa on Monday (today) over the suspension of the Chief Justice of Nigeria, Justice Walter Onnoghen.

Onnoghen was suspended on Friday by President Buhari based on an ex parte order granted by the Code of Conduct Tribunal.


He is facing six counts of false assets declaration filed against him by the Code of Conduct Bureau.

Buhari’s meeting with the APC governors will take place ahead of the Senate emergency resumption on Tuesday (tomorrow) when decisions are expected to be taken on Onnoghen’s suspension by the President.

The APC senators’ meeting with the President, it was gathered, would take a position to counter the expected condemnation of the CJN’s suspension by the members of the opposition in the Senate on Tuesday.

However, the meeting which is going to hold at the Banquet Hall, is being tagged as a dinner. Invitations to the meeting were signed by the Director General of the APC Presidential Campaign Organisation, who is also the Minister of Transportation, Mr Rotimi Amaechi.

A source close to the organisers of the meeting who spoke with one of our correspondents, said the national leadership of the APC would also attend the meeting.

He said apart from the senators and the APC leaders, some APC governors had also been invited to the meeting.

He said, “You know that the Senate leadership belongs to the main opposition party, the Peoples Democratic Party. The party on its own has taken a position on this matter.

“So, we need to talk to our members in the Senate and impress it on them not to allow Saraki to impose his personal opinion on them.”

APC Reps also to meet

Also, members of the APC Caucus in the House of Representatives have scheduled an emergency meeting for Monday (today).

The Majority Leader, Mr Femi Gbajabiamila, called the meeting, according to a text message circulating among the lawmakers on Sunday.

“Honourable colleagues, there will be a meeting of the APC caucus tomorrow, Monday, at 4pm. Venue is the White House Hearing Room 1. Thank you. Femi Gbajabiamila,” the message sighted by one of our correspondents read

Saraki with his minority colleagues thought the Senate belonged to them.

I thought they said, Buhari was lifeless? But on a single stroke of the cane, he killed PDP Dubai Strategy of using the corrupt Judges to come to power

Let's see how it pans out tomorrow.

Probably informed them on how to respond to Onnoghen's saga. Senators may go physical tomorrow.

I am still waiting for more details about Dubai's trip linking Onnoghen. Anyone with full details?

Cos the suspension of Pdp campaign is really funny

So the intention of the constitution is that if a Judge kills a whole village and the NJC fails to recommend his prosecution, he will continue to sit as a judge and be dispensing justice against other lawbreakers? Are we mad?

Karma is coming in February 16th 2019..stay connected..

And the wizards have bn invited to the coven...all the evil plans u demons have for Nigeria and Nigerians will never come to pass...so called senators dat a just mere puppies licking the feet of a dranged tyrant...

Buhari is in panic mode.

Whatever Saraki has on plan is dead on arrival, all these are just formalities to heat up the political clime.. it's just to deceive nyamuri flat.heads by giving them something to wail about on social media

Make we see who go snooker who...

SO WE SHOULD FRYING BREAD NOW BA

mtcheew thousands of nigerian are dying of hunger and all u think of is 4+4

LIKES FOR ATIKU



SHARES FOR BULHARI

the intention was for the judiciary to be independent. That also goes for the president. Imagine a situation where saraki as the senate president suspends buhari without a 2/3rd majority of the senate. Why is this so hard for you people to understand? Buhari has trampled on our constitution. Without the constitution then when people commit crime and are arrested, then they will just be thrown in jail without going to court and trial.

APC will just be checkmating PDP


SenseWillNotKillMe

Following... I only need the attendance of Sergio Ramos of APC " Senator Omo Agege " to them the needful.

But BDC Onnoghen was not going to allow JCN to sit to look into the allegation

This is not all about PDP or APC, it is about rule of law and due process. It Onnoghen today, it can be your father, uncle or even you tomorrow. Irrespective of who will support, let condemn that which is bad.

If you are claiming Onnoghen is a saint, same as FG

When did Punch join the beer parlor news creator?

This event is simply a dinner night and it isn't a closed door. So how does Onnoghen comes in?

Why are they making this corrupt man look important. Very manipulative published news.

So Onnoghen is now worth a reason to call APC Senator's and Governor's meeting? The meeting that was not called before the President made the decision.


Misleading report!

The bribery commences...

Buhari is a failure and those who support him are worse than Ebola

Buhari, APC and Nigerians have this on lock down. PDP and other criminals are out there in cold wailing like baren witches.

I don't think we need to overflog the issue of this common criminal that is being treated like a political prisoner among the cunning partisans we use to know. I think its high time we move on based on these:
1, Onnoghen / CJN position is a Government appointee and not elected as the two other heads of the elective arms (executive and legislative).
2, he is a public office holder by default
3, he has attested to being corrupt but not plead guilty
4, he needs to be trialled to the effect of the latter
5, he heads the constitutional trial team by default in which he can not be a judge in his own case
6, he needed to withdraw himself or be withdrawn from that position for legal proceedings to take its place appropriately
7, instead he refused to be honourable
8, CCT has the right, jurisdiction and duty to trial any public office holder and write an exparte order (as a constitutionally recognised court in the federal republic of Nigeria) to the executive to suspend such public office holder for it to discharge its duty efficiently, and effectively
9, they did the same by communicating same to the executive
10, executive in same spirit acted upon the exparte and did needful
11, corrupt elites and the ignorant saved chicks (oromadiye) are interjecting the compulsive progress.
Nigeria which way @ 70?

The constitution is supreme.

Buhari is a dictator.

Onnoghen: N’Delta agitators threaten to form govt, partner IPOB

A coalition of top Niger Delta agitators have threatened to unveil a government that would oversee the affairs of the region, and equally declared their readiness to work with the Indigenous Peoples of Biafra, IPOB over the suspension of the Chief Justice of Nigeria, Justice Walter Onnoghen by President Muhammadu Buhari. They said that Buhari’s suspension and replacement of Onnoghen by a Northerner was part of his ethnic agenda, which is unhealthy to the country’s unity.

Lifeless and his co travellers will rule from daura in a few weeks time

Na so

Cool! All hands must be in deck to safeguard our democracy as it comes under vicious attack by enemies of state masquerading as members of the opposition party.

Onnoghen is gone for good. There is no force under the sun that can bring him back.

Buhari is scared! In fact he did not sleep last night!!

Those that will not vote Buhari in February 2019 Presidential election and their reasons:

1. Shitte Muslims because of the wanton and reckless massacre and incarceration of their members by Buhari government;

2. Reasonable Nigerians who can see that Buhari is taking Nigeria to nowhere. Instead of taking the country to Canaan, Buhari (Actually the Cabal) is taking Nigeria to the deepest dungeon in the farthest part of wilderness;

3. North Central States because Buhari has been protecting and defending Fulani Killer Herdsmen that has been killing them, raping them and Snatching their ancestral lands;

4. Southeast States because Buhari called them 5% and arrogantly marginalised them by by conspicuously neglecting their region. Buhari also massacred their sons when he transformed to python;

5. Southsouth States because Buhari called them 5% and refused to site a single federal project in the region. The abandoned Ogoni clean up comes to mind;

6. Reasonable Southwest individuals who wants the good and progress of Nigeria and does not ass lick Tinubu and can clearly see that Buhari is a yoyo being teleguided by a selfish cabal!

7. Reasonable Muslims who cherish the unity of Nigeria and have seen the divisive, clanish and nepotistic government of Buhari;

9. Over 9 Million youths that lost their jobs since 2015. To add salt to injury, Buhari insulted these youths by calling them lazy;

10. Nigerian women whom Buhari dispised and stubbornly refused to integrate into his government. Buhari also demeaned Nigerian women by blabbing that they belong to the kitchen and the other room!!

11. Real Christians who can see that Buhari's government emanated from the pit of hell!
