Section 158 (1) of the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, as amended, has unequivocally provided for the independence of the National Judicial Council vis-à-vis directing or controlling it by any authority or person while exercising its powers.

Section 160 of the 1999 Constitution, Council fashioned out: Judicial Discipline Regulations; The NJC has sole responsibility of disciplining members of the judiciary.


Guy go and read your books.... you are still a loser and a self-servicer. Quote me with facts and precedents or get lost

see your educated illiteracy?
did i say any agency can control or direct SJC? DISCIPLINING and PROSECUTING members. are they not two different things? are members of the judiciary not part of the larger society? if they didn't commit any crime worth disciplining, but broke the laws of the larger society, they should not be touched? what if it was a council member of the SJC, he/she should not be touched?it is your likes that encourage sacred cows in the society. zombic- waileism has no cure.

Osmondinho:
You are the one that is myopic and lack understanding of the workings of the different arms of government.

I advice you pick up the nearest 1999 Nigeria constitution and read it.

which superior law pass the constitution of the land

#mofo

i have read it. and there is nothing that says judicial office holders can not be arraigned in court. the immunity clause does not cover them. the NJC is a statutory body that is still subject to the laws of the land. i don't know which constitution you are reading. i forgot. you are a mumu unrepentant wailer. sorry.

Sane Nigerians are behind the arrest of judges and other corrupt members of the political class. Some call buhari a dictator but if dictatorship is what is required to sanitize the system you have the support of patriotic Nigerians. Invade the home of looters, break their doors and safes with sledge hammers, brutalize them with your DSS and make them pay for short changing the state. We must sanitize the country for the upcoming generations[/quote


Am not in support of the arrest of the judges in any form... NJC are the ones mandated by law of the land to deal with the fate of any judge. no matter how good your intentions are, if you derail in carrying it out through the lay down procedures, you are not better than a criminal.

Justice must be carried out well

Did you read what you posted at all? based on your own myopic reasoning, so if the police suspects a student who has broken a superior law of the land, eg alleged kidnapping, rape,etc, the police must get approval from the vc before arresting him, since he has not broken any school rules and regulation? abi? if money laundering and fake asset declarations are cases that can be prosecuted. do they have to rely on the decision of the NJC?, knowing fully well that they are colleagues?. the NJC has no power to prevent an arrest of any person that is being suspected of a crime. you've been infected. go purge your reasoning.

kcnwaigbo:
The so called existing cases against judges cleared by the NJC will not see the light of the day.You can take yesterday's NJC communiqué as the position of the supreme court since it is still the members of the NJC that will adjudicate the cases at the supreme court.

Buhari is not interested in fighting corruption in the judiciary, he has been amongst those trying to corrupt the judiciary through corrupt judges like Okon Abang.He is only interested in going after judges who ruled against him or the APC

YOUR OPINION. PUT IT IN YOUR POCKET.

Some nigerians a really dumb not to read between the lines. She is actually dissatisfied that she is not part of the kitchen cabinet, though she cooks baba's food in the kitchen! This is not a sincere frustration, but a camouflaged jealousy that she is not in the thick of things the way Yar'dua's and GEJ's wives were!

FriendChoice:
Waiting for you to quote that Quran verse or forever take your lies somewhere.

My question is very straight forward. Quran verse I said not Hadith? Don't deviate.

Even in the Hadith He married her @9 not 6. He was engaged to her @6. And married her when she attains puberty @9.

Shameless liar.

6 or 9, which one is appropiate? paedophiles covering up under the shadow of religion. anyways, thats what islam a very fake religion teaches. is it not sex jihad? where you can turn girls and women to sex slaves as prisoners of war? is it different from what boko haram did with the chibok girls? 20% of islam is 'spiritually' inspired. the remaining 80% are bunch of self-gratifying teachings.

Forwetinnah:
Plenty blaaaaah blaaaaah blaaaaah...you won't join issues but took time to write an epistle. Aisha has now confirmed what most of us knew all along. Booooohari is a dunce unfortunately there's no Idiagbon to clear up his mess and make him look like a leader who knows his left from right. He's the worst thing to ever happen to this country

ok. noted. go take panadol and live with the dunce as your president till 2019.

Eyor1:
Fayose deh try jorh

even in his domain; he can not effect the laws he personally supervised. he had to abduct cows himself. smh!

speakingbeing:
The supposed truth is the chibok girls saga are politically motivated to achieve their political objective simple...

sorry sir. i don't have your cure yet.

Eyor1:
This matter get as e be oh.... Me sef, I feel say this chibok matter na politics

though the abduction was real, it was used to score political points by APC. does that make them fake? PDP would have done same. it only beats my imagination when the likes of fayose wants us to throw away sensibility like the way he has done. he believes the abduction is a propaganda, but he is busy abducting cows upandan ekiti state and he wants us to believe he is working. politicians will ever remain politicians.

kill all the niger delta coakroaches! let the hardworking and honest niger deltan see road to negotiate more intelligently with the government.

jaymejate:
Easy to make peace with your brothers than with a total stranger.
Gej was a stranger to them.
You're brothers.

Not surprised

see your life for street? is the president that has been denounced severally by shekau, killed several of his foot soldeirs, who is not even around for the exchange, that you are saying they are his brothers? or the president that openly admitted that boko haram terrorists are in his cabinet; i.e wining, dinning and making decisions with him? who is their real brothers now?

SamuelAnyawu:
It's normal, nothing feels so cool like seeing your loved one's coming back home after three years...



Afterall we all human


I Pray for all parents to have thier daughters back from Bokoharam's imprisonment....


I'll be a father someday, I shouldn't be angry when I see these girls returning back home.

I AM NOT LUCIFER


God Bless Nigeria

Thanks for accepting the light of the truth.

damosky12:
Now you have just spoken wise. I am not defending anybody uncritically. That is why I am against any uncritical, unscrupulous and unbiblical condemnation of these MOGs. If we have qualms to settle with their doctrines, let's settle it biblically and not extemporaneously. Sorry for the harsh comments.

taken, but you still need more training though from pastor chris okotie! lol!

damosky12:
Is it anyone's fault that you lack the ability to clearly submit your assertions. Go read your previous posts over again and see if they make any logical sense at all. Your punctuations are not different from that of primary school pupils.



What you had incipiently written are almost impossible to process towards arriving at your point. Your previous posts and what you seem to mean aren't congruent. Who will you blame? Emotional confused is out of the question. Now, this is the height of it. You have amplified your ignorance in a limpid light. If at all you have ever seen a dictionary before in your life you should not type something like the bolded. Even a baby can tell who the "educated illiterate" is now.

God help you.

God has helped me and i think you should also seek help from man worship, thinking you are worshipping God. you rose to their defense as if u're the one that called them, yet you argue with me not because u hate me or my comments, but because you really hate some things that they do that is entirely ungodly. because i haven't condemned their ministry and mesage before you rose against me. 'birds of thesame feather' does not necessarily mean bad things. thats why you made me call you an EI. i can still tolerate zombie nigerians, but not zombie christians. i watch pst chris every week, have some of his tapes and devotionals. same goes for pst fatoyinbo and benny. i don't deny God's gifts in a man no matterthe man's weaknesses. what i hate is uneccessry defense without asking questions like the bereans.

Forwetinnah:
I don't need to argue with a programmed robot...the state of the nation is enough to tell anyone who's more ineffectual. GEJ isn't afraid of anyone, he can stay wherever he pleases. I guess you were one of those people who said he would seek asylum after office. He's there, right in your faces with his wife, do their worst. Oh..I even forgot you're trying to already

i won't join issues with you since you are a programmed wailer based on ur rantings about d economy and ur foaming in GEJ's defense. i really hate to dissappoint you,but i am neither a wailer or a zombie! i state facts as they are. an international publication called him intellectual buffon even when they would have been certain things he did well. take your fight to them to prove why he is not. PMB and APC are making certain foolish mistakes too like the party and person that was there before. you know why? there are thesame. all politicians are thesame. we know PMB would want to keep projecting the image of mr right, but if nobody eats yam, won't it be difficult for him to claim the only saint? lets stop d support of persons and objectively take up issues one after the other one by one. i have worked with GEJ from his days as governor with one of his closest SAs. my dad has worked very closely with PMB, ABACHA and DIYA during the uniform era. so i am likely to know these people characters more than the zombie-wailer club and partisan freaks group you belong. i can clearly tell you that both are victims of corrupt political systems that brought them to power and that they must please. PMB is luckier just because of his military background. back to my point. a proverb says even a bad child has his own usefulness. canvwe agree that PMB with his dictatorial nature is somehow useful? sometimes i pity us, no thanks to you zombie-wailers club, because you will not believe their cordiality and union of these ellites in secret. wake up people, they divide us to be able to rule us. did you see what happened in turkey? was it because their president is a saint? does that mean they will not protest tomorrow against him? UNTIL WE CHANGE OUR FOLLOWERSHIP, LEADERSHIP WILL NEVER CHANGE

tafabaloo:
Kudos to the SSS!

Meanwhile, the nation wld appreciate to see the end of Saraki's case at the CCT, as well as investigation and possibly prosecution of the likes of Tinubu, Amaechi, Fashola, Akpabio , and host of others who has petitions bordering on alleged corrupt enrichment against them.
They all needed to be raided at night and prevented from sleeping as well.

#nosleepfothecorrupt

God bless you. balanced, unbiased and intelligent. as we are supporting them in the fight, we are indirectly making them set strong examples that they themselves will find difficult to compromise if also found wanting. that must be nigerian's superior strategy! in the process, we would have helped to build strong institutions. no party can do this for us. we must be the opposition that will make any government in power do the right thing!

ejilife:
You are obviously a dułl fellow in coding why this clueless govt acts the way it does. Just be assured that the coming days will unearth a lot of the government cluelessness to the world.

if my dullness gives me the impetus to fact find and base my unbiased arguments on solid facts of the law, then my dullness is far superior to your sentimental-based wisdom.

damosky12:
Is it that you lack the capacity to present arguments in a pellucid light or your reasoning faculty is faulty. Read the post I replied again and rate how coherent it is.
Also, it is either you don't comprehend or you can't read. I replied you, stating that Buenny Hinn is like a mentor to Pastor Chris ; how then on earth is he a stranger? Besides, where in the scriptures is it wrong to invite other ministers of God to a local gathering? All ministry gifts are for the edification of the body of Christ towards reaching unity of the faith (Eph 4:10-13).

As regarding the "masturbation.. ." issue you seem engrossed with (such that you now use it figuratively, laughable), it is best for you to go watch the video again, this time, with the desire to learn. Juxtapose the answer given to what the scriptures teach and try and find a scriptural critique of the assertion. This will save you from delusion.

save me this trash you wrote as if you are properly educated. if you are, you will understand that what i am saying is they are all friends even though they may differ in doctrines and ministries. if he is a mentor to pastor chris, so are they strangers? or you can't simply understand and differenciate between the words 'strangers' and 'friends'. did i condemn the visit? you seem confused and emotionally troubled, seeking quick gratification without properly processing what i wrote. what is d difference btw ur action now and masturbating? educated illiterate.

Forwetinnah:
Your boooooohari has proven to be even worse than being ineffectual? Sorry o! I hear wetin happen to una. Tinubu boys oyeeeh!!

you are funny. who is more ineffectual? the one who for the fear of his masters, passed the criminal justice act 2015 into law few days before handover so that he won't be under pressure to execute it, or the man with d temerityto arrest sacred cows with it? election is over bro. the drunken master can't even summon the balls to stay in otueke.

More than 30,000 broken and failed marriages were recorded in Badagry area of Lagos State between January and September 2016, an NGO, Family Reloaded Organisation, said on Wednesday.

The organisation’s Coordinator, Mrs Sesi Sebinun, told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Badagry, Lagos, that the major cause of broken homes in the area was negligence of duties from both parties.

“There are so many broken homes in Badagry and the number is going to increase if urgent steps are not taken to address the situation.
“The husband fails to see that he is the man of the house while the wife isn’t submissive and these cause friction in the house.
“The children suffer this because of the psychological effect on them, so, both parties must learn that building a home takes team work by both parties,’’ she said.

She noted that violence in marriages was due to impatience from the two parties.
“Impatience and lack of understanding between both parties are the major causes of violence in marriages because they do not have the will to tolerate each other.
“We must learn each other’s flaws and tolerate them instead of getting angry at little things,’’ she said.

She advised people to make use of social welfare services to address issues in their marriages. “Many people are not aware that there are organisations that provide services to people whose marriages are in trouble.
“You don’t have to wait till when things are damaged beyond repair before seeking help from social welfare service and customary courts to rectify things,’’ she noted.
She advised couples to pray regularly for their marriages.

JESU! The purpose of marraige is being eroded. failed marraiges produce unbalanced children and unbalanced children add to the failure of grown adults in the society. this indeed calls for an emergency. it is clear that 'love', attraction, romance, money, connections, cars, house, influence, beauty, sexology, cohabitaion, height, complexion, etc counts for absolutely nothing. A sense of deep committment and understanding seems to be the only thing that matters at the end of the day. intending couples, please watch and pray well o!

damosky12:
Your parlance really shows you have a personal relationship with God.. What exactly is your point? Is it that your "personal relationship" with God does nothing than criticisms of men of God without a focus on how to develop your life. Personal relationship indeed. Go get a life. God help you.

so thats the only thing you saw on the post. quite myopic of you. you failed to address the issue of their closeness. no man of God invites strangers on their pulpit. so its logical to say they are of same plumage, wether false or not. is it not masturbation that one of them encourage? since you rose to their defence masturbating (albeit figuratively), as a true zombie disciple that you are.

ceeethru:
I think is surprising to see people here celebrating impunity of the highest order in a supposed democratic regime, there's no doubt that Nigerian judges are very corrupt, but can the president be bold enough to arrest the judges that has spoken in his favour? This is purely an act to intimidate other judges to work on his favour, even the roothless military junta of Sani Abacha and IBB never acted like this; but today the claimed educated in Nigeria are celebrating every nasty moves made by this stark illiterate, that is to show the level of education they operated in Nigeria, this nonsense can't even happen in Zimbabwe or Somalia.

look, no one is celebrating the northern bigot. when your child struggles to stand, what do you do? you clap. is it because his steps are perfect? no. you clap because u see a desire to do things that could not be done before. we see people returning monies voluntarily for the first time in our history in this administration. lets clap and criticize where snd when necessary and stop being hypocritical.

Apc wants the core Niger delta states...

have you been drinking ogogoro from the same pot with the ineffectual buffon?

damosky12:
It is only a fool that arrives at a conclusion without pellucid reasons to do so, thereby limiting the possibility of his salvation. Just thinking.

Hey don't masturbate on this thread because of what i said. do pastors invite strangers to preach in their churches? or your conscience has already judged their characters? go get a personal relationship with God and stop this religious zombeeism.

As an APC judge you're immune from prosecution.

ZanyABC:
NOW THAT THE CONTROVERSY REGARDING THE RECENT 'CRACKDOWN' ON JUDGES IS OVER: WHAT NEXT?
If you have money, you can really take advantage of government in this country. There is too much noise; too much sentiments and little 'intelligent conversation'. At the end of day, everything is swept under the carpet.
Notwithstanding where each of us stood regarding the last saturday's crackdown on judges, I am sure EVERY Nigerian now worries about how to get the judges convicted, if truly they are gulty.
NOW imagine what people are talking about! Let's even assume that the arrest of the judges meets the standard of law, are we going to get them convicted with all these conversation people are having?
What conversations am I talking about? DSS has been releasing 'evidence' against the judges and here are some of them: a list of 'monies' recovered from judges' bedrooms; the fact that a Rolls Royce was found in a judge's compound, the fact that a judge has 15 cars, the fact that a judge has several properties...etc
You call these ones evidence of corruption? DSS must be joking.
In which part of the law is keeping money at home a crime? Even if you keep N200 billion in your house, that in itself is not corruption. It does not take a brilliant lawyer few days to come up with some explanations for you.
In which section of the law is owing a Rolls Royce a crime? There are a thousand and one legitinate ways to own a Rolls Royce. Could be a birthday gift from your daughter's man. Could be proceeds of business. If DSS finds 1000 Rolls Royce in a person's house, that is not proof of corruption. Even if you own all the houses in Nigeria, that is not a crime. We should stop asking people to come and explain how they got XYZ amount of money! That is the easiest way to lose a corruption case.
If this is what you guys did forJames Ibori, Stella Odua, Joshua Dariye, and others, I am not surprised these guys were not convicted. Little wonder all corruption cases don't end up in conviction. If anyone goes to court with peripheral information such as these, no judge will grant a conviction.
The proceed of corruption can be used to buy a bicycle or nothing; and that does change the fact that it is corruption. The proceeds of corruption may have been spent patapata. Meaning even if DSS found no money in the judge's houses, that does not affect a case of corruption in any significant way.
The real evidence we need are evidence of people who paid brides to the judge; the evidence of a go-between; Audio and video record of the process from negotiations to dropping of the cash to the judge. Fundamentally inciminating evidence from the judge call logs to go-betweens, and several other evidence. So far I am yet to see 5% of the evidence needed to establish corruption.
Let's stop talking about Rolls Royce or foreign currencies. That is not how to prove corruption. These are evidence that gives DSS a reasonable suspicion to effect arrest and carry out investigation; that is not the evidence to prove corruption.
I hope this will help our excitement. We always get too excited about weightless information like this. What has happened to Stella Odua, Fayose, Allynson Madueke and many others with all the figures that were put in the media. Gbenga Daniel nko? How about Dimeji Bankole? Assuming Jonathan spared them, why hasn't Buhari convicted any of them?
When the Federal Government sued Saraki and Ekweremadu for forgery, I remember stating it on this platform on my Wall that the evidence are not sufficient. Now the case has been withdrawn. A person can benefit from forgery without being guilty of it.
Guys we are too learned to allow security agencies to confuse us. Let DSS produce the real evidence.
NOW IS MY POSITION:
Let's ask DSS for the real evidence. Even if they are not producing it to the press, let them demonstrate that they have it.
- A judge travelled to Ghana or Niger to collect bribe!
-Who told them?
-Any video or audio to that effect?
-Whose bribe did the judge go there to collect?
-Any statement by the person who gave him the bribe?
-How must is the bribe collected?
-For what purpose was it collected?
-Is it about a case?
-Who are the parties to the case?
-Have you interviewed them?
By asking these questions instead of getting so excited about the foreign corrency especially and the Rolls Royce, we will help DSS a great deal.
2. Secondly let's advise DSS to go back to NJC. They should present their allegations to NJC. It is better if the affected judges are suspended or removed while they are facing prosecution. Otherwise a Supreme Court judge will leave the dock in the morning and sit to hear a case in the afternoon. That is not too good. That is why it is always better to have a judge face disciplinary action even if it is suspension before their prosecution.
I hope this changes our conversation a little

intellectual but sentimental rubbish by typically bribed lawyers! first the questions u wanted to ask will be asked by their lawyers in a proper courtroom, not in a nairaland courtroom. you are d ones that will call it media trials.secondly, a corruption case canbe established without a sting operation. were the assets declared in their asset declaration forms? can their income support it? if they gifts, can it be established that they were inducements?forexample, if d DSScan prove d monies were transfered to themfromgov. wike's accounts who happened to have hada case before some of the judges? if they were clean gifts from friends and relations or from profit from businesses, then you must provite financial documents and tax clearances. so you see, acase can beestablishedand won without actually planting bribes. rather than condemn their lawful actions, we should rather follow the cases and make them pursue it ti a logical conclusion. people were demonstrating at d EFCC's office that mrs jonathan should be prosecuted.thats the way to go.why? before the ellites settle it and obtain backdoor judgements. the masses become the loosers and victimswhen they sweep it under d carpet. now judicial commission has written the president and the arrested judges issue is not among what do you think is happening? they are negotiating a soft landing for themselves and others who the DSS will come for. we are the ones that must not keep fighting ourselves by condemning every effort of any govt. and be torn along ethnic,religousand party lines. APC and PDP are dsame. we are d ones that must seize the opportunity to bring the change that we want, which may not be the type of change that they campaigned about. by the way; no judge standing trial has the moral capacity to sit over any case. so it is automatic suspension.

CHAI! LOOK AT HYPOCRITES BELIEVING SAHARA REPORTERS WHEN IT SUITES THEIR BIAS! EVEN WHEN THERE ARE NO OFFICIAL STATEMENTS YET.

SamJed:
Nothing we no go hear...from millions of naira and thousands of dollars to unlicensed pump action...and the annoying thing is that after some months everything will just die down...and we start all over again...but then i wonder which high ranking personnel or politician in this country doesnt have an arm in his house...licensed or unlicensed...even the dss boss has them enough...this country is just full of hypocrites blaming other hypocrites

So whats your suggestion?:we descend to anarchy? you and many others are d reason the case dies because u label them as witchhunting and when they are released, u say its victory for democracy! many nigerians' mentality has been messed up during these 56years!

Vikkie14:
This is how Boko Haram started then. Use of force, then protest, then killing, then ARMED uprising.
Now, consider the same pattern in this Shia/shiite saga. These people will SURELY become the next Terrorist group in Nigeria.... Iran will sponsor these people to destabilized Nigeria.

THEN THEY SHALL BE WASTED LIKE THEIR BOKOHARAM BROTHERS!

ejilife:
you mean at your age you still fail for the fails and media trial by the DSS?

you call it media trials? was it not governor wike that ran to the press and publicized the videos? or was it the DSS that decided to film the private residents of the judges during the raid?
the NBA issued press statements before the DSSofficially made theirs to clear the media trial already ongoing? can't you see that we are d one's sensationalizing things here or are u telling me it is d DSS that owns nairaland, facebook and twitter now? have u taken time to gothrough theCJA 2015 where any one with a warrant can lawfully breakdown the door of private residents at any time of the day? don't let us join issues. i believe the purpose of education is to train the mind to be factual not sentimental.
