the day we allow institution work for the good of all d better...Fiona onasanya a parliamentarian in UK was jailed for three months for lieing on a traffic offence more so her party d labour party has expel her..her constituents ll recall her...but here we shade thieves based on t
tribe and religious leaning dos supportin d president statement on immunity ought to know d constitution doesn't grant him d powers to suspend d cjn onnoghen...like Charly boy talk our mumu Neva do

when our league is run like a business model or franchise...and the necessary standards are in place...it ll flow...jst like pple pay to watch movies in cinemas yy ll de not pay to watch d league if properly organised...like someone said Nigerian league is a gold mine if properly harnessed

mrjojo:
because she is asking the tough questions? Have you watched Amanpour before??

u mind pple shebi pple defend our president who has done one media chat since he became president go watch hard talk on bbc u go sabi say our press men de pamper politicians here...d grilling is in order

zuma4k:
In saner climes, this election should have been between Obi & Osinbajo

am glad u know but sentiment of tribe and religion is our wahala...

Elxandre:
Why is he supposed to use Federal resources to repair roads in his village?

That would just be nepotism.

u de mind am was dee no governor dee...if we run a real federal system d job of d president should be selling Nigeria to the world via smart foreign relations,nice immigration policy strong defence but here we want legislature to do road and provide water...well we ll get there

Tetehjewels:
You seem not to know how word goes round in the north and how much more their transistor radios are more effective than youtube.

This is why they are more political aware than a lot in the so called cities

aware to follow one course...if most of those guys can't think critically like d south Nigeria politics ll be different

so no one is asking this guy to resign over the bribery video evident even if we don't know the technology..yet u see pple shouting we are fighting corruption...Nigeria..d day institutions work for the good of all seamlessly..then we are good to go....

SEONaijaExpert:
I think we're beginning to see proactive verdicts from the upper courts since the shake up.


Olisa Metuh should sit his ass down in Nigeria till he's either freed of all criminal charges or sent to kirikiri.

so d courts have not been proactive and a federal high court gave judgement d appeal court only validated
wetin metuh wan go do abroad self...yeye politicians

Seetto:
Stop comparing thieves , be it ganduje or Walter or usoro, this guys have dealt serious blow on us and subjected us to abject poverty and concentrated backwardness, ganduje was captured stuffing dollars in agbada, usoro claimed udom gave him 1.4bill akwa ibom state money, Walter failed to declare 1.3bill and over 55 houses, this is just a tip of the iceberg , I bet you many more are sitting on I'll gotten wealth, this our duty condemn this people regardless of their party affiliate or ethnic/religion background....

sadly de all innocent until proven guilty in a court of law...simple...

PaChukwudi44:
I THINK JUSTICE ONNOGGEN IS A MAN OF PRINCIPLE.SEVERAL FAVOURABLE JUDGEMENTS ALSO WENT TO THE APC SINCE HIS REIGN AS CJN BEGAN.HE WASNT EVEN CJN WHEN THE SUPREME COURT RULED ON THE RIVERS ELECTION.

he just a victim of power play just like sanusi was and salami was too... the judiciary ist with njc then d Supreme Court have to stamp their and prove they are not an appendage to other organs of government

PaChukwudi44:
Bros Justice Rhodes is a man of honour and not a stooge.It may also interest you to know that it was Justice Rhodes who led the supreme court panel that ratified the Makarfi led executive as the authentic PDP exco.The supreme court has never fallen to the manipulations of any government in power.

we have many illiterates on nairaland d more u educate dem d more d wallow in ignorance...my brother u have said it all if d njc don't want d judiciary to burn de ll handle dis case well to a logical conclusion...just like you keep telling them...rule of law is key not rule of man...de shd know dst d judiciary is not a football field wer one referee takes decision without corrections...many San are interested in this case and trust me if onnoghen goes tanko ll go too except we want a Banana Republic

PaChukwudi44:
lol DREAM ON.GO AND READ JUSTICE RHODES PROFILE.HE IS NOT PRO-TINUBU IF THAT IS WHAT YOU ARE THINKING

some of these guys think judiciary or court is child play d same onnoghen de are shouting is mole for pdp was among those who voted for d cancellation of 2007 elections won by yaradua...more so in cases of court judges or justices vote and give their opinion to determine a case..a govt can't buy every one in judiciary....

KenOne:
NJC to sacked Tanko in dreams. The federal government have settled for Justice Tanko Muhammad, if NJC does not want to be ridiculed let them not accept Tanko, when the constitution also gives the president the right to accept or reject NJC recommendation.

Just like Magu's case senate rejected his confirmation and is still their as acting for almost 4yrs.

NJC recommend any other person apart from Tanko and see how Tanko will be acting CJN until 2023 he reaches 70yrs of retirement.

This is PMB accept my candidate or i render your recommendation useless using the constitution right to accept or reject your recommendation.

u are joking u think efcc and d judiciary are same...at d end of d day tanko have to go..otherwise it ll boomerang in future...u can't suspend obisike of abia for similar offence and leave out tanko...it will be a win for democracy...are u saying if d Supreme Court say tanko cant be can buhari ll refuse...u are joking

hisexcellency34:
Corrupt NBA President + Corrupt Chief Justice of Nigeria. Who did we offend?

de are still innocent until proven guilty in a court of law same way ganduje is still governor despite graphic evidence of bribery

asfrank:
He should not be among the NJC panel in the first place, his public stand on the matter shows fair hearing cannot be guaranteed. No NBA member should even be among the NJC committee regarding this issue.

u obviously don't know d law nba has five rep and it's constitutional sm of u lack neccesary grasps of constitutional democracy we are not in monarchy

Sirjamo:
That's what was expected of Justice Onnoghen, he should have stepped aside to allow for impartial investigation of the allegations against him, but he allowed the miserable Poverty Development Party to lead him to complete destruction.

was d petition sent to Njc in d ist place..una no get sense oooo...due process is d petition lands at njc and d cjn recourse himself...as it is tanko too ll have to go cos other judges have been suspended for not been recommended like it happen in abia recently...what ever happens can set a positive or negative precedent for d judiciary

Guestlander:
They are working hard to make sure Nigeria doesn't reach that level.

add ganduje too ur president said d videos were doctored maybe dem don test am... wen our institution wrk fully for all not selective den we are gud to go

abang na no nonsense judge...dos shouting apc judge no sabi his judgement cut across boards so wee is d apc tin from

vengertime:
very funny, putting originality next to Jimi Disu is an insult to the word originality

wetin u sabi oder Dan bigotry...

vengertime:
he's program is now boring, its not about who he invited or not.

u want him to do ur bidding...wats is boring in his program...jst have an open mind simple...one tin I like about Jimi is his originality

mu2sa2:
Kudos to NBA, Yobe branch for taking the right decision. Even from the tone and diction of the letter, you won't fail to notice that the guys over there are a decent lot, unlike the uncouth noise makers from the other side. I saw some of these clowns on tv yesterday wasting their time in the sun. A matter is before the court and you are shouting yourself hoarse in the street over the matter! Anyone involved in that charade is a clown and isn't worth being called a lawyer.

den yy did d president suspend d cjn if d matter is court yy didn't d presidency allow d court to decides...d judiciary has been balkanised on two fronts cos d presidency didn't handle d issue with care...

Mujtahida:
That's why i pity the southern christian part of this country. In their vaunted self righteousness and supposed learned ways they'd condemn their own but did any Hausa/Fulani man condemn Ganduje for his egregious acts? No! Christians in the North are wiser because they know the hypocrisy and duplicity of the Hausa/Fulani man in issues like this (mind you i do not hate any tribe in Nigeria. Indeed, in one on one interpersonal relationships Hausa/fulani people are very nice people, far nicer than people from the south). what i am driving at is their actions in respect of politics and the advancement of ethno-religious interest.

when the Rules applicable to Abubakar is different from the one applicable to Depreye how can justice ever be done? imagine if in a match anytime you score even legit goals its declared an off-side but any time your opponents score even offside goals the Referee awards the goal.

We cannot operate a federation unless there is justice and fair-play. Let Abubakar be punished when he does wrong, let Okoro also be punished when he does wrong but we have refused to observe simple rules of fairness and justice. how then do you expect me to condemn the CJN? I will not! I will not be that stupid or naive.


How i wish Orkar's coup had succeeded.

and u think d orkar would solve Jack.... we don't want things to wrk dats yy simple...u saw hw FIFA kept saying if d sports minister interfere to remove pinnick de ll ban Nigeria...

vengertime:
Ok

Jimi bias...u must high on weed...it's u who is bias...person wey invite agbaje and others too nawa

adanny01:
The law gives immunity to the executive, until the National assembly gives themselves and the Judiciary immunity, immunity is not gotten through the back door.

d Same law say d njc is d body to charge any judicial official ist...wen in 2009 under saraki justice elelu was removed as chief judge of kwara state after 2/3 of d state house voted for it... it was rendered null and void cos d njc were not carried along...salami was recommended by njc to Jonathan for removal but d senate were not carried along...it was also illegal...onnoghen as cjn gets his powers from d constitution not d president dats yy he shd nt be removed like he is an appointee of d president...the essence of having strong institution and due process is to ensure things are not done on emotions but rule of law...

adanny01:
That has been my first position in this matter.

An illegal and backdoor way to give judges an unconstitutional immunity.

same way d executive enjoys immunity...d law is law until it changes...

banio:
One of the things I drew from this write up is that Onnoghen is being tried by CCT because he is a civil servant. So if he resigns his travails will be over. Maybe then EFCC will step in.


Anyway which way, let the constitution be sacrosanct.

But over $1million is an unimaginable amount

but then as head of judiciary he is a Co equal since he head d third arm of govt... his powers flows from the constitution not the president.... it's complicated...the constitution Neva thought time ll come we all be in dis debacle...that said his suspension is illegal...it behoves d judiciary to save herself not because of onnoghen but for d future and d judiciary...more so issues like dis give us ample opportunity to change our laws...for eg d immunity clause is criminal in itself...

GlorifiedTunde:
Succinctly articulated!
















This is the problem we have in this nation! YOU!

We have all been pre-formatted not to welcome any idea or submission or intellectual analysis that comes from a different "Religion", "Ethnicity", "Gender", "Race" etc.

I am sure many of you didn't read the write-up before churning out your myopic and ridiculous views!

I am an unrepentant Christian!

But I have read a brilliant submission that has incorporated a perfect similitude, only for persons with sound cognitive ability to digest and decide!

You all are a bunch of embarrassment to the words "Education" and "Literacy"!!

I thought too d prof gave a healthy argument which is his personal submission...u counter with a superior argument...anyway we like to trivialize issues sha am not surprised

Yomboy4ever:
A very good man from SE but the unfortunate Ipobs slaves of Fulani will never support one of their own.
They prefer the thief to their own son.
Stupidity is when you spent 3years shouting Biafra Biafra then suddenly you saw another Fulani with money and shouting Atikulated
After Threatening us For Supporting Buhari, they Are Now S Supporting Atiku, A Fulani Herdsman, A Muslim, A Terrorist And An Old Grandpa. �
I Guess We Are All Cows Now.

u are a petty tribal fool yy didn't d omoluabi support sowore or durotoye... stop dis ur yeye write up... moghalu wey na only Lagos and abj dem sabi am sowore is even popular and has touch all states....

wittydee:
Wike did not take APC to court. In Rivers, APC has two factions. They have been fighting themselved. The court case is a fallout of their fight
.

u de mind pple who comment out of ignorance...look at IMO ogun zamfara rivers u have two factions or break out in apc whose fault...just like pdp in ogun is factionalised on two fronts and d court ll look at d merit of issue...some Nigerians are to partisan than party members...

xcolanto:
Couldn't understand a thing you wrote. You should start up evening school and take a break off Nairaland.

maybe ur brain is not working...if u don't understand pass by...

MyGeneration:
It would be easy for him to marginalize and frustrate Abia because of that but he choose not to

u are wrong u hear...

MyGeneration:
the man is too much. I am even surprised that Abia made the list, despite all the hate Abia is known for Against Buhari, through Nnamdi Kanu and Ipob. Buhari still made sure he does something for them.

Ipob make una get sense o.

buhari na president of bauchi...abi
