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?

In advanced democracies? Yes, it's that difficult to remove a judge. And our democracy is same as theirs, just that we ignore rule of law and people hail them while they are at it.

key word, "HIGH POLITICAL BAR". Not just one man waking up and killing another arm of government, I understand some people like to support trampling on the constitution regardless of their education, but in your case you sounded so ignorant of the situation.

This is why i said Buhari supporters need sense. How does rule of law and due process mean the same thing as being a saint? Receive Sense. where ever Buhari native doctor buried your sense of reasoning, i command you to receive it right now.

That may not be entirely true for Judges but do you know that the following people can personally level a community and nothing would happen.

1. The President
2. The Vice President
3. The Governor
4. The Deputy Governor
5. The members of diplomatic corps excluding the Nigerian staff members.

You cannot bring any criminal or civil matter against them until they finish thier terms. I.e 1-4

Number 5, the host Country Can only expel or his own country recalls him.

If the President has contravened the laws of the land on this suspension, challenge his decision in court. You Nairaland SANs and constitutional lawyers can join the suit too. Until then, your grammar cannot fill a basket.

So why didn't your President challenge the purported non declaration of Assets in Court first (and allow the court to conclude the matter) before trampling on the constitution?!

Let's see how it pans out tomorrow.


on one hand you are saying the CJN has no part in the election. On the other hand, you are claiming the PDP was to use him to come to power.

Can you see how senseless you've become?

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.
To fight corruption in a corrupt system, u dont follow the due process, but u follow the necessary process.

Well the independence was abused! For your information, the CJN is the number 1 custodian of the law in Nigeria. The judiciary is more than just an arm of government, it is the conscience of the country. If an allegation is levelled against its head and the head (CJN) instead of facing a panel of jusges to defend it decides to postpone the meeting of the panel indefinitely, then he is indirectly calling for anarchy. Not to say Buhari was right to do what he did.
Any Nigerian that criticises Buhari and supports Onnoghen or criticises Onnoghen and supports Buhari is BIASED. Simple!

if a sitting president also commits a crime who prosecutes him? are you aware that the three arms of govt are supposed to be separate and equal in a democracy, the erosion of the powers one arm of govt by another arm spells doom for democracy.

asfrank:

what most of you are failing to understand is that judicial Independence or immunity doesn't mean a judge cannot be prosecuted while on seat. Judicial immunity covers only issues relating to the discharge of their statutory functions of adjudication, and interpretation of the law. Just like the legislature enjoy immunity while carrying out their statutory function of law making. I will ask you this question, How many times have you seen a Senator, House of Reps member or House of Assembly member press charges against a fellow member for assault, threat done to him or her while they are within the legislative chamber? the answer is it has never happened and will not. This principle applies to the Judiciary. Have you seen anyone arrest a judge or charge him to court because he jailed an innocent person? again their immunity is there to prevent the executive or legislature in melding into the process of adjudication. The executive do not decided when a judge will rule on a case, what his ruling will be, who to convict and who to set free, that is what judicial immunity means..World all over judges are arrested even in the UK, it has happened repeatedly.
i totally understand what you are saying but the law/constitution also stipulates why and how a CJN, president, governor should be removed from office. Onnoghen should face the law and be held accountable for his actions but in doing so, due process must be followed. Even if it takes 3 months for him to be removed as the CJN, the constitution must never be trampled upon. And please don't say he's merely suspended because the constitution does not make provisions for that. Can buhari be suspended as the president?

The office is the president is not in the same level as CJN
The president has the mandate of the people, and sovereignty belongs to the people

the njc is also meant as a check on the chief justice, simple. you cannot say that if the senate refuses to impeach the president then some other person/ institution should usurp their powers.

The president has not removed the CJN

He is merely on temporary suspension for the duration of his trial.
The president is merely obeying a court order.

Whether the CCT erred in issuing such order should be challenged in court

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.
Am not taking sides but i think he, the suspended CJN is at fault. He should have stepped down b4 now, why in God's name did he postpone the meeting of the cancel.
Lets see if he will come to court to challenge his suspension since he did not attend any of the CCT hearing.

Firstly your analogy is way off. Secondly in every civil society the Constitution is there for a reason. You don't set bad precedent because of how you feel about issues. You have to set rules that stands the test of time and learn to review under agreed upon rule.

You don't just wake up one morning and change the rules because of how you feel, it is only a dictator that does that.
