PaChukwudi44:
Tanko is the biggest loser here.He could have been CJN from 2020-2023

tesppidd:
Since he is from Lagos can we refer to him as a Tinubu boy?
I've heard that everything from Lagos belongs to Tinubu.

Just asking!

gretblue:

Why those who stole a bag of rice are being lynched to death. God will never forgive you people.

frankson1:



If only they had done this at the right time all the noise won't have happened.
The President should continue taking drastic measures to correct some people's brain.

thunder74:
Is that all?

Naajjii:

But that PDP judge onnonghen is gone that is what the president wants fish out dubious people out of the system. A win for the fight against corruption for the president. So what's your point.

deomelo:



The crooked and corrupt judge tried to evade justice by postponing the same meeting indefinitely just to evade justice, that was abuse of power and the crooked CJ taking the law into his own hand for his own selfish and self serving interest.


He did not get away with it because PMB forced the issue and without PMB, there won't be any meeting of the NJC, thanks to PMB.

Muttee:
NJC ends emergency meeting, gives
Justices Walter Onnoghen and Tanko Muhammad, seven working days to respond to petitions written against them.

deomelo:




Who cares? They all can rot in jail if found guilty.

We don't want crooked and corrupt judges peddling and selling court judgement to crooks and corrupt public officials, that's the point.

Built2last:

mushystuff:


Why breach in the first place and then seek to 'regularise'? By your admission, there was a breach hence your use of the word 'regularize'. How are those who criticized such Constitutional breaches goats? You should be objective enough to criticize wrong when it occurs.

Halo22:
That's if the new acting CJN would respond to the petition cos he appears like his master. But all the same, if due process would be followed am sure Tanko will still not make it as a substantive CJN. On the other hand, Onnoghen will still be suspended finally. So the next person in line should be warming up to take over. I guess Justice Mary Peter-Odili.( Do not say I told u, before Buhari gets to know)

PaChukwudi44:
if the supreme court or the NJC nillifies his suspension,he automatically returns as CJN.It does not need any president to action

capitalzero:
nice development njc tried.

tanko and onnogen are gone.

Rockquest:
Nothing spectacular will come out of the NJC meeting. The members are all afraid to tell dictator Buhari the truth.
They would have been heroes if they write dictator Buhari and advise him to immediately re_instate the CJN while letting him know his action is unconstitutional and also remind him that it is their duty to recommend the CJN suspension if found wanting.

SirBunky85:
and who will give the ruling in d supreme court if not tanko?Mr man,evn d njc is playing safe so dat dey won't vex pmb

Viergeachar:


Tanko isn't staying either!

JUSTICE ONNOGHEN VS JUSTICE TANKO MUHAMMAD: HISTORY IS REPEATING ITSELF

Both the suspension of Justice Onnoghen and swearing-in of Justice Tanko Muhammed in acting capacity by the President followed the same pattern of how Justice Theresa Uzokwe was suspended by the Abia State House of Assembly and Justice Orji subsequently sworn in as acting Chief Judge of the state by Governor Okezie Ikpeazu.

While earlier placing Justice Orji on suspension in January 2018, the NJC said in a statement, “The suspension of the Chief Judge of Abia State (Justice Theresa Uzokwe) by the State House of Assembly without a prior recommendation by the National Judicial Council violates the provisions of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

“Consequently, the subsequent act of appointing and swearing-in of Hon. Mr. Justice Obisike Orji as the Acting Chief Judge is invalid for being unconstitutional.

“Furthermore, the conduct of Hon. Mr. Justice Obisike Orji in presenting himself to be sworn in raises potential questions of misconduct that Council is now looking into.

“Council therefore resolved to query and suspend the Hon. Mr. Justice Obisike Orji pending the outcome of its investigation.”

Later in March 2018, following further investigations by its panel, the NJC said, “Hon. Mr. Justice Obisike Oji was earlier queried by the council for allowing himself to be sworn in as acting Chief Judge, and thereby colluding in, and aiding an unconstitutional process.

“His reply was unsatisfactory and the council recommended his compulsory retirement.”

The NJC, also at the same meeting held on March 14, 2018, found Justice Uzokwe culpable and recommended her compulsory retirement.

CULLED FROM PUNCH

CrestMan:


Walter is not coming back to continue on a long term for sure because of the allegations against him for morality sake but will be reinstated and properly asked to resign in a befitting way BUT TANKO just missed the golden opportunity to become LEGAL CJN because he will also be sanctioned for participating in the kangaroo appointment! Both side wins(PDP60% APC40%). My humble opinion
