This Onnoghen issue is too messy.

The major trouble for me is how politicians have now allowed the issue to be largely a political one and I doubt that Justice Onnoghen can return to the Supreme Court even if he is found innocent because he has been politically exposed.

Nigeria does this to people

Walter Onnoghen was already morally tainted and the only place for him was outside the judiciary

The man confessed to a crime, corrupt Nigerians closed eyes against it, PMB must follow due process to suspend CJN , but CJN can suspend NJC meeting indefinitely so he wouldn't be recommended for suspension? Naija matter sha May PMB have more courage to clean Nigeria of corruption.Cjn position is a holy position ... person of questionable character is not permitted to occupy that office...

buhari caused the problem, how can all his appointment come from north and at the same time one religion. .. it really shows that the man has a hidden agenda, people are not in support of onoghen but every one is now sceptical about buhari's motives. . This is unfair. Can you imagine gej doing this kind of appointments?
Zombies would not see your observation. Appointment is not only rested on meritocracy which even the south has in abundance but an avenue of wealth distribution. All those appointed persons from the north require personal aids. They will end up with just persons within their localities. I have never seen this kind of nepotism. However some persons down south and even in north fail to see this. A precedence has been set which is not good for reference.

The National Christian Elders Forum on Wednesday protested against the suspension of the Chief Justice of Nigeria, Justice Walter Onnoghen, by President Muhammadu Buhari, describing it as an Islamic agenda.

The organisation called on Nigerians to mobilise themselves to resist the Islamists in the country.


The NCEF said the President’s decision to suspend Onnoghen was a “judicial coup.”

What was surprising, it said, remained the apparent unwillingness of Christians and other Nigerians to understand the core problem of the country.

Members of the group include Lt.Gen. Theophilus Danjuma (retd.), Solomon Asemota (SAN), Prof. Joseph Otubu, Gen. Joshua Dogonyaro (retd.), Dr Kate Okpareke, Dr Ayo Abifarin, Gen. Zamani Lekwot (retd.), Elder Moses Ihonde, Elder Nat Okoro and Elder Matthew Owojaiye.


Others are Justice Kalajine Anigbogu (retd.), Elder Shyngle Wigwe, a former Deputy Inspector-General of Police, L. Dabup, Sir John W. Bagu, Dr Saleh Hussaini, Elder Mike Orobator, Justice James Ogebe, JSC (retd.), Dr Chukwuemeka Ezeife, Chief Debo Omotosho, Dame Priscilla Kuye, Dr S. D. Gani, Mrs Osaretin Demuren and Prof. Yussuf Turaki.

The NCEF’s statement, which was signed by its chairman, Asemota, was titled, “CJN Onnoghen: What is really at stake and the way out.”

The group said, “In 2015, Nigerians unwittingly elected an Islamist government into office, supposedly on a platform of democracy. It is with this as background that the questionable suspension of the CJN, Justice Walter Onnoghen, should be situated. The ‘judicial coup’ is not only against the judiciary, but also the constitution that is under attack and with it, the sovereignty of the Nigerian state as a democratic nation.”


The Christian elders also restated their commitment to prayerfully support Christian presidential candidates and indeed any candidates who would be committed and loyal to the tenets of liberal democracy, human rights and equality under the law.

Asemota said the Islamists that belonged to the Salafist sect believed that modern society should run according to the 6th century pattern of Islam.

“Islamism is not a religion but a political ideology which holds that wherever Islam is, Islam must dominate,” he said.

He added, “That is one reason why Islamism is called “political Islam. However, while all Islamists are Muslims, all Muslims are not Islamists. The National Christian Elders Forum is calling on Nigerians to mobilise to resist the Islamists in Nigeria and ensure that they do not return to power again so that Nigerians can concentrate on building a just and equitable society.”


According to them, infrastructure that is sustaining Islamism in Nigeria must be dismantled and democracy must be promoted.

Look at all these shameless Christian fanatics that called themselves elders. At a stage in our National history, where preaching peace is paramount, these bunch of fanatics are busy making provocative statements so as to cause religious divisions.

The untactical approach of the presidency is the cause of all this fuss. Hope they will learn

Please what was the president to do?

The CJN has postponed the NJC meeting indefinitely after sensing that he would be suspended and recommended for dismissal and prosecution.

The Senate that was supposed to take a definitive stand was on recess. Even after briefly announcing an emergency resumption, they still went ahead to postpone when they knew they can’t save the sinking judge without looking foolish.


Should the president have allowed such monumentally corrupt judge to oversee the whole judicial architecture of the country?

What will you do differently in such case?

Gen. Zamani Lekwot (retd.),

When I saw this name, I developed hatred for the group. This is the man behind our most deadly crisis in kaduna. In fact, he's the architect of our modern day crisis in the state.
