With the way the PDP is politicizing this CJN matter, Onnoghen may have no other option than to eventually step down because they've effectively compromised his position.

Has Amina Zakari Stepped down ?

Apart from the Immunity, he should be stopped from taking part in the elections, you have every evidence seen all the world, you dont even need to to waste the time of the courts on this case.

IAS10:
In other words, they are asking him to disregard a constituted authority and disrespect the laws of the country?

As the CJN, he should be seen to be respectful of the laws of the land.

The governors got it absolutely wrong.

No the governors are right and in order, the Attorney General should be aware that the CJN can't appear there until the NJC has investigated and found him guilty. But as a gentleman he could appear with his lawyer or team of lawyers and tell them they don't can't hear the case until the NJC has heard the case.

So the idiot will have to petition the NJC again on the issue

Have you ever filled an asset declaration form before? If you have not, kindly stop posting ignorantly. When I declared my assets to CCB last year, I filled a form provided by the bureau. In the form, there was a column where I was asked to list all my bank accounts with their balances as at the time of declaration. Even if the account was overdrawn as at the time of making the declaration, the declarant is under legal obligation to declare it.

Funny enough, Onnoghe is not even arguing ignorantly like the op. He admitted on record that he forgot to declare his domiciliary account with standard Chartered bank. Some of you really need to stop defending nonsense.

Have you filled one yourself, have you even seen one

ericsmith:
Can you listen to yourself ! he should resign becos those who appoint him think so , moreover onnoghen was not elected by nigerians or igbo neither is it pdp perogative to decides who stay or leave under apc .
Miss stop been lazy read things before you start reacting... the man in question admitted he made false declaration but claimed he forgot ..remaining as the CJN boss why he undergoes scrutiny discredit the whole investigation process .. he is the boss they av to accord respect ... the constitution gives the presidency the right to appoint & to also enforce retirement ..call pdp to come n learn

I am not igbo in the first place, I I don't understand whats your obsession with the igbos, why cant you guys all them be, the presidency should do whatever they want to do and wait for the outcome, you are here ranting you think you know more than them because you think they have not thought of it, they should retire or fire him, Bros you need to learn it's not as easy as you think

writerights:
Are you saying we should now return to Atiku and PDP?

Is APC any better ask yourself, but before you do look for brain borrow if you now get one.

See the kind question this one day ask me at this time

ericsmith:
stop embrassing yourselve up & down, if you donnt know the CJN onnoghen made a false declaration which he admitted saying he forgot, really .
if he is going to face code of conduct bureau wonnt he resign , how will the judge prosecute onnoghen when sit in the dock as an active CJN .. trying him without resigning will definitely undermine the office .. the constitution stance is he resign .. why is pdp & igbos so concerned by the way no be apc/buhari administration appoint the man

Why should he resign just look at you, Is this the popularity of PMB, and for your information as a judicial officer he must go before the NJC first for investigation and if found guilty before he can face any court of law in this country , go and wait for him at CCB ode

Ecstasy154:
The All Progressives Congress (APC) says the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is sympathetic to corruption.

The ruling party said this in reaction to a statement credited to the PDP.

The opposition party had said that the allegations against Walter Onnoghen, chief justice of Nigeria (CJN), is a move by the APC government to constitute “a constitutional crisis” and “instill fear in judicial officers” to do its bidding.

TheCable had earlier reported that there were moves to remove Onnoghen before the elections.

The CJN has been accused of false assets declaration.

But in a statement on Sunday, Lanre Issa-Onilu, APC spokesman, said the fight against corruption remains a cardinal promise made by his party to the electorate.

“Following reports of the move to prosecute Justice Walter Onnoghen, chief justice of the federation, over an alleged infraction on the Code of Conduct laws, the swift statement by the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) condemning the purported move has again exposed the Party as one with a natural inclination to rise up in defence of cases of alleged corruption,” he said.

“Resort to baseless postulations anytime issues of corruption is leveled against public officers only confirm what Nigerians already know. PDP and corruption are siamese twins that are difficult to separate from each other.

“One would have thought that the PDP will call for impartial investigations when corruption cases are levelled against public officers, but spinning falsehoods and conspiracies remains the opposition party’s favourite past time.

“The APC administration will not hesitate to investigate and prosecute any public officer if and when such is indicted for corruption.

“Achieving acceptable elections in all democratic climes is a collective effort which require the contributions and support of all well-meaning Nigerians, political parties, institutions and sundry interests.

“Commendably, in successive elections conducted under the APC administration, the party has played by the rules, which has led to credible elections. This cannot be said of the PDP era when state institutions were deployed to manipulate the electoral process.”

Issa-Onilu said the APC is committed to ensuring that the forthcoming elections go on record as one of the freest, most credible and peaceful elections in the country.

I decided on my own not to comment or say anything Nairaland until after the elections, but the ceaselessness of this Government has brought me out again, Zombies say APC and PMB has already won, but went ahead to pressure INEC Chairman appoint Amina Zakari, as if that is not enough they are trying so hard to force the CJN out of office.

WE are watching intensely and Nigerians are watching PMB and APC turn this country to Syria, it will never happen, it is there families that will turn to Syria

It's only a matter of five weeks to the general election of 2019 which is a straight contest between PMB of APC and Atiku of PDP. In 2015, I did this thread and was successful to a very high degree (more than 90% success, you may want to read it here https://www.nairaland.com/2059493/2015-presidential-election-more-objective).

In this year's prediction and analysis, I have considered political developments that we have witnessed till this moment in arriving at my prediction for each state. Notwithstanding, anyone who feels he/she has better information to change the outlook is free to say so and we will see what impact such can have on the overall result.

The prediction/projection is based on some assumptions and calculations stated below:


1. I have considered each party's strength and performance of 2015 general election in predicting their 2019 performance. I have actually put up the result of 2015 in this analysis.

2. Average voters turnout in 2015 was about 43% throughout the country. Each state's voters turnout for 2019 has been projected in line with that of 2015 except in cases where the turnout was lower than 43% national average that I have used the national average figure (43%).

3. 5% of the projected total votes have been allocated to other candidates including Sowore, Moghalu, Oby Ezekwesili, Durotoye, Olawepo Hashim and co. I don't think they will get more than that combined.

4. No party is projected to score anything close to 90% or 95% in any state as we witnessed in 2015. Most of the factors responsible for that anomaly are no longer in the mix in 2019.

5. Toss-up states aka battleground states have been given to the party I think will eventually win the state but with small margin (not more than 5% win margin).

Note: This prediction/analysis may be updated as we approach the election if there are major developments that can have significant effects on the election.

When the APC have long legalized their corruption in the full glare of Nigeria.What have become of Maina, Lawal Babachir, Adebayo Shittu, Abba Kyari, OUK, Musiliu Obanikoro, Akpabio, Amaechi, Adullahi etc.This government reeks of nauseating hypocrisy.

This is the most Corrupt Government in the History of this nation

These are people whose families, friends or acquaintances have lost lives,limbs or properties to marauding herdsmen tacitly supported by their chief supporter;or to BH terrorists,now more deadly than ever known,yet they continue ar se licking the man.
Do u think these are still people with normal functioning brains?

I have never seen a group or set of people that are so lost, even if you dont like Atiku , cant you pick from the others, why must you want to force someone that has been confirmed to be a failure

Gbam. PMB must get sense by force, make he send DSS to arrest them, the whole world is watching him and his cabal.

PassingShot:
So, because Onnoghen is the first Southerner to be CJN in 30 years, he must be allowed to be corrupt and trample on our constitution?

The idiots who called for Kemi Adeosun's head for mere NYSC certificates are the same dunces who want Onnogen who has admitted "to forget" to declare his assets (a bank account that has over $700,000 in it) be left alone.

Now I understand why Sarathief was cleared with the speed of light by this corrupt Justice.

If na because of this case una wan burn Nigeria, please go ahead.

He would not Resign, do your worse, you guys are beginning to sound very foolish, you claim your PMB is popular but still one week is one appointment to ensure he comes back, let him come head with Atiku if he would win. With all the criminals and retired thieves in APC that the list is endless you guy still have the guts to call someone a thief, you guys dont want peace in this country you all will suffer it, do you think you will be selected out and say because you are APC support go to this market to shop.

You guys want peace the ensure a free and fair election, you guys have been shouting Dubai strategy, but to your greatest surprise not one strategy from Dubai has being released, at the right time the strategy will start to play out on its own.

PMB is going back and there is nothing you or that one that grills Pussy cat can do about it .

South South Zone
This is a zone which many APC supporters and neutral political watchers believe APC has made a big in-road into, to the extent that many are predicting a win for PMB in Akwa-Ibom and a very good showing in Rivers and Delta. I personally see PMB winning Edo; reason being that it's the home state of APC's Chairman; APC won there in 2016 governorship election (a recession time); and APC did very well there in 2015 election despite intimidation by the military of PDP then.

Because of political alignment which saw Akpabio decamp to APC with his huge followership, APC can actually win Akwa Ibom but I have tempered my expectation with caution by predicting only 40% of the votes there for APC. With Akpabio in Akwa Ibom, Great Ogboru and Ayiri Emami in Delta, Rotimi Amechi, Tonye Cole and Nsima Ekere and other political heavy weigths on the side of APC in Akwa Ibom, it's only logical to expect APC score nothing less than 30% of the votes in this region; especially with almost zero chance of "writing result under special condition" in 2019.

Verdict - PDP to win the zone with no more than 65% of the total votes cast here.


South West Zone
Face the fact, if there is any region in Nigeria which doesn't largely vote based on religion and ethnicity, it is the SW zone of the country. If this wasn't true, GEJ/PDP would not have gotten 43% of the votes there with just about 587,000 vote difference in 2015, despite APC having Osinbajo on the ticket. But with major infrastructural projects (road, rail, power project) and N-Power plus Trader/Market Moni going on in the SW region; coupled with the facts that there is no shortage of political heavyweights from the region in APC; plus the facts that the region's Obas largely support PMB's 2nd term, PDP will have performed well to match their 2015 outing in SW. VP Osinbajo is from the zone (Ogun state) and APC recently won in Ekiti and Osun as well. Irrespective of what anyone might think, it's highly unthinkable for SW to abandon Osinbajo for a promise of SGF position in a PDP government. Forget that Obasanjo and Afenifere are supporting Atiku, these elements are only revered outside the SW.

It's important to point out that the performance of PDP in Osun was not really taken into consideration for the fact that electorate in that election, electorate wanted to punish APC/Aregbesola for not paying workers salaries for many months (same we saw in Ekiti as well). I personally know people who are APC but voted for Adeleke because of the salary issue. So, I do not see PDP doing as well as they did in that governorship election of 2018. Notwithstanding, I have largely left the prediction to about the same outcome of 2015 with just a flip of Ekiti to APC since the party won the governorship election there as recent as three months ago.

Verdict - APC wins SW by about 60% of total votes cast.

The North Central Zone
Included in the NC is the FCT (for straight-forward analysis). Many political watchers expect the contest to be keen in this region because of the perculiarity of the zone and some major political development there. Majority of PDP supporters expect their party to win this zone largely because of the herdsmen issue and political alignment in Kwara and Kogi state. Winning NC is a mojor prediction upon which their hope of the presidency lies but unfortunately, elections are not necessarily won on sentiments and emotions. This explains why PDP recently lost the bye-election in Kwara state which is a blow to their calculation. I have predicted PDP to edge a win in Plateau as they did in 2015 and manage a slim win in Benue because of the herdsmen/farmers imbroglio but I believe they will lose FCT and Nassarawa which they managed to win in 2015 largely because APC is now the governemnt at the center and the fact that no major in-road has been made by PDP in those states.

I believe APC will perform better in Kwara than my prediction of 55% win there. Saraki is loathed by majority of Kwarans and he will need a political miracle to survive the Otoge onslaught against him. A sample of what awaits Saraki was served in the last bye-election for the HOR there. I will also expect the APC government to checkmate whatever staunts Saraki and PDP may want to pull (via rigging) by deploying adequate security personnel in that state.

No matter how hardly fough the election is in NC, it will be a big surprise if PDP outperforms APC in the entire NC zone. I predict a 52% win for APC in this zone.



North East Zone
This comprises of Adamawa (Atiku’s state), Gombe, Borno, Bauchi, Taraba and Yobe. Despite being Atiku’s zone, there has been no past occurrences that can make any unbiased analyst predict an Atiku win in this region. Of course, there were incidents of herdsmen in Taraba at some point, but I personally do not see this having significant impact in the overall outcome of the presidential election there. Another interesting fact is that Buhari, even in the days of PDP heavy rigging machines, has always performed well in this region especially in Adamawa, Gombe, Bauchi, Yobe and Bornu. In 2007 and 2011, despite losing the general election, PMB did well in this zone and even outperformed Atiku here in 2007 when both ran against Yar’Adua of PDP (PMB ran on ANPP then and Atiku on AC).

Also, this zone was ravaged by Boko Haram pre-2015 election when the terrorist group was controlling 14 local governments at some point. Today, despite still battling the BHT in the region, it’s surely a far better situation there and only those who were liberated will understand.
It was in Gombe that PDP flagged off their NE Presidential Election Campaign and was embarrassed by the chorus of Sai Buhari to their shout of “Nijeria”. The video is available online for anyone to watch. PMB's wife is from Adamawa, same with Ribadu. I do not see Atiku winning his own state of Adamawa but I give him a slight edge in Taraba which PDP won in 2015.

Verdict: Buhari/APC to win the zone by at least 60% of the votes cast here. I think this is more than generous to Atiku/PDP.
