Chigold101:
this Alegeh guy is not even saying this because of Saraki, thats from my own understanding.
He is talking as lawyer who sees no reason why a court should be controled by the executive.
Thats all

this is also my thinking.

Babacele:
Even if CCB is reviewed, it won't retroactively favour saratif. CCB was formed before Saratif n he submitted himself to its laws then. So all these na story.

is it really about Saraki or is it about all of us?
There is no law for different persons.

Look at how the CCT opened their mouth to say that what happened in Tinubu‘s CCT trial was an error, just imagine that.

It was an error because Saraki must be purnished by this administration but it was right the other time because the then administration felt Tinubu should not be purnished.

We need a CCB/CCT that is not being controld by the executive arm.
Period

Adamo84:
So, across each Geo political zones, there are no qualified graduates or people to fill those vacancies The best thing to do is shortchange other zones abi Whatever happened to fair share

fait share has different meanings accross Nigeria.
For example: Buhari made his blood brothers & his fulani kinsmen his inner caucus & hench men, thats fair share.
Customes boss is buhari‘s friend & brother from military stock, because there is no senoir custom‘s officer that could fill that spot, thats fair share.
A retired journalist is the minister for education because he is buhari‘s brother while a former vc is a junior minister of education, thats also fair share.

Bros nigerians only dance for and in sentiment. Fair share doesnt exist anywhere.

Thanks

The National Assembly recently commenced the
amendment of the Code of Conduct Bureau
(CCB) and Code of Conduct Tribunal Acts, but
suddenly suspended them due to public outcry
over the timing of the amendment which
coincided with the trial of the Senate President
and the chairman of the National Assembly, Dr.
Bukola Saraki. But in this interview with IBE
UWALEKE, the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA)
president, Austin Alegeh (SAN) believes that the
amendment is necessary irrespective of the time,
as it is odd, according to him, to have a court or
tribunal like the CCT, functioning under the
presidency or the executive, against the
provisions of the 1999 Constitution (as
amended), arguing that it is a usurpation of the
role of the third arm of government, the
judiciary. Excerpts:
Do you think the National Assembly has
any reason to begin the amendment of the
Code of Conduct Bureau and Code of
Conduct Tribunal Acts when there are
more important Bills waiting to be passed?
The right of the National Assembly to amend any
law cannot be circumscribed in any way and we
believe that the National Assembly must be
acting in good fate. The fears that are being
expressed are the assumption that the National
Assembly is acting in bad faith. I don’t share that
sentiment neither do I believe that a body so
high up in our national polity will decide to act in
bad faith. If there is any reason for the Code of
Conduct Bureau and Tribunal Acts to be
amended, by all means, let them be amended.
After the second reading of the amendments
being proposed, then we will be in a position to
know whether the amendments will enhance the
administration of justice or not. We should not
believe that members of the National Assembly
would act in a way contrary to the mandate
given to them by the people. Don’t forget that
whatever Bill passed by the National Assembly
will require the assent of Mr. President. There is
no law that cannot be amended to make it
better if such need arises.
There is a moral question in this particular
amendment because of the timing. How do
you react to that?
There is no moral question. There is no time limit
to amend any law. When we have elections that
is the time people see the need to amend the
electoral Act. The trial of the Senate President,
Bukola Saraki might have brought out the Acts
to the limelight for more people to read them
and found out that they need some amendment.
CCT, to my mind should be a justice sector
establishment. As lawyers we should ask why is it
that a court is placed under the executive. Let us
not allow diversionary matters to occupy
national discuss in this issue.
Should the CCB and CCT be placed under
the Presidency?
That is a good question to ask. The question that
follows then is what are they? The NBA has
proposed that the Nigerian Prison Service (NPS)
should be under the Ministry of Justice. But why
is it under the Ministry of Interior. If the prisons
are put under the Ministry of Justice, the ministry
should be able to know how to decongest
awaiting trial inmates and how many Black
Marias are needed to take suspects to court.
If you move prisons to Ministry of Justice, more
people will be going to court to decongest
awaiting trial inmates.
The question we should begin to ask ourselves is,
where should it be located? If a senator, for a
wrong reason is proposing correction
amendment, why should we fight it? And we now
noticed that this is a judicial arm of government,
why should it be situated in an executive arm of
government? He is not saying they should take it
to the legislature rather he is saying it should be
taken to the office of the AGF where it belongs.
We should even appreciate the fact that the
Senator is making a good point to some extent.
Is NBA making any move towards making
this realizable?
We have told the National Assembly that we will
not partake in public hearing. After the second
reading they should call us for a strategic
meeting, where we sit down to have a working
session not a public hearing where we have all
manner of people to discuss it, which I think I
wont do because not everybody understands
what CCB entails.
Let us sit down and evaluate all these Acts –
Money Laundering, EFCC, ICPC and others and
their interrelationship. If ICPC finds you have an
infraction where will it take you to? How many
prosecutors, investigating officers do CCB has
and are they working in accordance to the law?
Let us address the elephant in the house, is the
CCB being used now to chase down political
opponents.
If you want to work any law, tell me and I will
send you lawyers that are verse and capable in
that aspect and they will sit down and look at
the rules, tell you which areas or sections need to
be amended and how they should be done.
We have done it before and we are ready to
engage the government if they too are willing to
invite us.
If Bukola Saraki invites you to join his
legal team, will you oblige him?
No! Because presently I am engaged as the NBA
president, you must stand neutral in several
areas. That is the supreme sacrifice you must
pay. For instance, this year, I did not appear in
any governorship election. The reason is simple.
If you see me in any governorship election case,
what impression will that have on the image of
NBA? So when you aspire for offices, you must
be able to make sacrifices because there are
certain steps you take that may be wrong and
the NBA needs to react and so I am the
president of the NBA for now.
So anybody who wants to bring a case to me
now I will tell the person there are lawyers out
there better than me, I will not even recommend
a lawyer to the person.

modath:


All ye that will rejoice at this, hoping he will shaft the Law, Nah, this is just one of his cases, just like Dasuki has 3 or 4 simultaneously so does Nurse....


He has another date with Justice Okon Abang, ( who Nurse tried unsuccessfully to bully off) if Ishaq is seeing "shadows", Justice Abang won't. .

what i will tell u here is this; “all forms of delay tactic will be applied by FG & EFCC,“ but what i am sure is that all their media noise have ended and they dont know what next to do.
They are looking for new charges to add through the Deziani window but they will still fail.
Metu & Dasuki maybe guilty but when a prosecutor has no real evidence he ends up adjuning the case...

Inioluwa01:
Mr, did you read the post at all or you are just plain silly? How does the revealed rot concern a government that got into power less than a year ago when it was categorically stated that the illegal recruitment was between 2013 and 2015? Besides, did you not see that the region that should cry foul about this illegality is the North? How would a President from the North oversee such such assault on his fellow countrymen? Wise up bro. No offense.

bros so u called what is written in this post rot?
Did u read about “educational imbalance?“
Is it a secret that the north is a little less educated than south?

Even Ebonyi state is also less educated than the rest in the south?

I dont think this is about “rot“ it is just about sentiment that rules Nigeria.
One of Nigeria‘s realing backwardness is this federal character and quota system becuase it does not encourage healthy competition rather it encourages “i dont care“ attitude.

We need to scrap quota system & federal character from our constitution.

Adamo84:
Another scam uncovered

what is scam about this?
They should employ people who are not qualified just to maintain federal character...

Nigeria is a country where sentiment rule on high.

Keneking:
Jonathan sef

Imagine South-South still shouting discrimination and not having their people in the right places.

did u really read this post?
If you did, is GEJ from Delta state?

Okay Buratai go fight tire...

Okay Buhari should get ready to drink the blood of Niger Deltans...

Protect Fulani herdsmen who kill innocent Nigerians, northern governors tell buhari...
Kill the Niger Deltans for fighting their right...

queenstll:
omo, see sharp buildings

toyeoye:
I had an interview with him 2weeks ago! still on my laptop, can't believe this

congrats you can claim to have his last words & that can make you a little richer if you see a media that will accept to either air or publish it.
It is called EXCLUSIVE.


Fear catch me oh! I been think say na YAKUBU OH...

madridguy:
Daily mail UK will soon come back again with the real version of the article. I am sure their chief editor presently is always on cow dung. Same paper telling the whole world that Boko Haram still control the North East.

wait o... So you dont know boko haram still controls NE?
Tell me why the USA is promising to give Nigeria air craft to help them in fighting bh?
APC government is stiffling information on the issues of bokoharam

hmuhammad:
Buratai go soon level them just the way he leveled shiite and he's leveling BH.

you are point bros.

Buratai is seriously leveling Boko Haram as long as they hide the true situation of things from us.

He leveled diffenceless shittes & killed them. Kudos to him.

His boys are littered all over ND yet chevron wont oparate for at least 3months.

Forget story... They no dey use mouth put fish for soup.

LONGFUELCUE:
Good, lets know the quantum of complaints by previous governments ASAP.

when someone promises u change from the old & went back to do same, what will u do?
Sit back and relax? Noooooo

There was also no submiting of 2 different budget propasals during the past..

iflywithbuhari:
aha, he has started to beg. I thought he was Hitler and Abacha together. Don't worry, mr President,they have only one simple demand, they want your resignation letter. Can you do that

wait until you hear from shehu or adeshina, maybe even lai.
They will counter this boro guys said.
Trust this government, they are good in countering their own statement.


You will soon hear ‘we cant plead with criminals.‘

mauriceju2:
guy fighting in water is not the with fighting in the desert

story for babies.
What are navy trained for?
Why do we have navy command?
Or are they trained to play American football?

TedBaker:
By a hausa man, or fulani herdsman? SE don't 4get the biggest of commandement is LOVE, why do we have grave hatred 4 dis hausa's, even if its nt a hausa, dem go say na hausa, wwe get igbo brodas n sistas 4 north oo

people like you are the problem of Nigeria. People that hide truth & promote lies & sentiment.
What happend in Mile 12 in Lagos? Was Igbos & Yorubas?
What happend in Agatu, Benue state? Was it Igbos & Agatus?

Can u count how many times igbos have been senslesly slaughtered in the north cos of what hapend in other countries?
Brother take it easy noone has monopoly for violence, trust me.

Nigerian law allows an hausa/fulani man to move about with cutlas, daga and jackknife... Think about it.

joseph1832:
LOL. I'm sure you know Jesus never threw a single punch, yet he defeated the greatest tyrant of all... And I'm sure you know who that is.

But still, freedom always come with a price.

freedom is taken and not given.
Go to the bible, look at moses & pharao. Check out israel and mobites, amorites & philistians.

Jesue took human freedom by dying a violent death even at that nobody gets that freedom without fighting his way out of sin.
No freedom ever came without some level of blood splashing on the ground.

I dont know why people people like joborskill exists in this nation. I am sorry to say this: we all saw what happend at Enugu not long ago.
Reading this type of writeup by joborskil shows that there are people in this country that hate igbos to bone.
I cant support violence; not in mylife but check the record of violence & sectional killings in nigeria, it seems people from northern part are given the right to kill others while they should be pampered.
It is in this country that Igbos in the north was killed cos someone in far away Parkistan criticsed Mohammed. Does it mean that a section of this country has monopoly for murder while others lot will be to bury their deads and murn?
Joborskill i am highly disaointed in you because you are here turning the whole thing that happend in Aba into accusation.
Why is it that hausa fulani men dont report to police when they feel offended but will always use their daga & knives which is lawful for them to carry about but unlawfull for Igbos to carry.
Joboskill stop writing trash like this because we all are not fools & this is not 1967. Stop blaming Nnamdi Kalu. You want Aba people to keep calm untilthey will become like Agatu people. Our dear president didnt make any public statement nor even press release till date on Agatu issue. Even when David Mark was attacked there, he still close his ears and eyes.

Joborskill, Igbos has always been at the recieving end since after the war. You cant slap a child and also stop him from crying.

I am not in support of riot or destruction of any man‘s life. Whether yoruba, hausa, tiv, fulani or igbo.

But please stop this type of trash.

Realdeals:
Too bad! yet some of these people still collect salary from the amnesty program.

i doubt if these guys are part of the amnesty.

What are the military Bubu parked all over creeks of Niger really doing there?
Just wasting tax payers money...

Weak military men...

Are these senators from Benue, Kogi & Plateu under any demonic influence?

With what hapend at Agatu in Benue they are still sheepshily following theses Hausa Fulani men...
Cant they stand up and be men for once... Tufiakwa!
David Mark shame on you...

Ilovemystate:
My brother Ebonyi state they talk down on is doing better than Osun and Ekiti

Ebonyi people should be happy by this news.
Ebonyi has the potential of becoming the richest state in SE.
But their people and government have been so visionless & ambitionless too.

Naija9090:
You don't mess with Igbos and Jews; both are known to pay eye for and eye as their progenitor Abraham thought them, they will chase you until complete revenge is achieved! Video below is a perfect example and expect same ruthlessness when Biiiafra is restored!

bros Abraham didnt teach Jews eye for eye...


Anyway... Goodone coming from Abia

When will this drama be over?

tayebest:
Eleyii gidi gan ooo you be cousin to mama piss nii?

Paul Biya please it is time to go and rest. You have over tried at least after deceiving Amdhou Ahidjo in 1983, i think it is time to allow DEMOCRACY to visit Cameroun my most cherished country.
The country where i grew into manhood.

As for Bakassi... Britain or no britain. I wonder how oyibo man go come for BLACK man country and divide families & cut off blood relations in the name boundries...
