Let me know now whether the NJC we have is useless.
Wike, have some shame at least and don't toe this path.

Send the 2, 3 or 4 names to the NJC....let the NJC do the picking. Haba!

MODIFIED;

Thank you NJC..

garfield1..I rest my case.
Did you remember when I told you about this kind of thing in our discussion about Tanko and who would succeed him and you wished it away? Little did I know Our Man Wike was already working along that line.

Thank God it was Almighty and Saint Wike that started it.... Others would follow suit

How can there be a stay of execution from appeal when there was no case from the lower courts? The order from CCB was an exparte,it was unexpected so how can a stay of execution now come in? Even if there was,it was after tanko was sworn in.at least they didn't say his suspension was illegal
CCT not CCB.

You should have ignored that yoruba boy.

He should emulate patriotism from me.

Listen....The CCT granted an exparte.
Onnoghen challenged at the Appeal Court..they have entered addresses, and granted stay before the FG took action.

We have no business with Ikwerre issues. If he like let him appoint ikwerre to all position, that is their business.


Ayade might be wrong or acted against ikpeme but he is definitely smarter than wike all round.

God bless ayade

I agree with you wholeheartedly though this akon is very corrupt according to fergie

What did Wike do? He pushed it to the NJC.

Your argument was that three names will be sent to Buhari and he will pick one....I believe in the event of death of any CJN, it becomes complicated once that person enters there in Acting Capacity, unless the NJC finds him not capable OR The President uses the Ayade method.

The CJN is the NJC. Most of the members are appointed by him and will most likely toe his line.

Wike knew that the moment that woman takes over as Ag. CJ it will be difficult that was why he went the way he did and I am sure with the advice and connivance of some dangerous members of that NJC.

don't said that, they are not. Njc is made of most senior judges in the country, including senior lawyers, and retired senior judges, they are not useless and they can't be bought by even buhari. Something must be wrong with the woman for them to sideline her
I agree with you.....NJC has long been recommending Heads of court strictly based on seniority


something is wrong with the woman for them to bye-pass her

besides Justice mary odili is now the deputy chairman of NJC .... she would have intervened if the woman has no case to answer

The argument at first was whether the CCT had jurisdiction, the CCT Chair refused to recuse himself, he made some pronouncements, Onnoghen appealed for his rights to be enforced.

Addresses were written at the Appeal Court and whilst the matter was been determined..when the matter is at a higher Court...the lower Court freeze proceedings, but they went ahead with the exparte.

The Appeal Court, Stephen Adah led the panel..that the FG was wrong in the way they acted but the ship had sailed. It went to the SC, all but Odili disagreed with the Appeal Court.

not all cases at NJC are disclosed to the public.......


seriously something is wrong somewhere for NJC to bypass the most senior judge in river's state ......since it's creation this is the first time they are doing that

It is the same thing na.the case before the appeal bordered on jurisdiction which the cct obviously had.new evidences came in which needed him to be suspended and he rightly was

The panel was been appealed, and addresses have been written...awaiting an expedited judgement.

The only thing was that those who wanted Onnoghen (not that he is clean like that) out, needed him not to constitute the election tribunal that period.

Odili has no sword of Damocles on her...She leaves in May next year. No threat whatsoever. Moreover it is dog eat dog...Her daughter is in the FCT Judiciary, they know themselves.

A new case was brought to the cct and an exparte was applied.onnoghen called for it.he was given time to summon an njc meeting,step aside and be tried but he refused giving the presidency no option...
His removal had nothing to do with election tribunal composition.
Odili does not come into the equation

Which case went to the SC on the Onnoghen issue?

A case on this CCT issue went to the SC post-suspension...
you can double-check.

I know but I said that case before the cct suspension was laid before the njc.onnoghen twice adjourned the meeting of the council instead of addressing the matter
Re: Wike Not Bound To Appoint Most Senior Judge As Chief Judge-rivers Attorney Gener by Kinematics:
When Buhari did it we all lamented, now Wike is following this part as well.


Wike indeed has brought tribalism to Rivers State. This seed of tribalism he has planted will definitely germinate in due time.

If something is wrong then Wike himself should speak up. Not this Ikwerre agenda he is doing.

The river AG and governor Wike are stupid with all these their lawlessness to violate the long held judicial traditional of the NJC in appointing the most senior judge as the state CJ.What is always wrong with all these so called useless leader when intoxicated by power?

It is unfair and unjust what Wicked Wike is doing to that woman. She is the most senior judge in Rivers State so she deserves to be the next chief judge. I understand that she has a clean record and a sterling career but just because she is from the Igbo speaking part of Rivers State, Wike has refused to let her take her rightful place. [s]I pity Igbos who are supporting Wike, if only they knew how much he hates Igbos[/s].
She is from Abua/Odual an ijoid people. I no know where you get your Ibo speaking part from.

This is shameless lie from Wike and his AG. The NJC always recommends the most senior judge in any state to become chief judge. It is their tradition. [s]Wike wants to silence that woman because she is Igbo[/s].
Stop exhibiting ignorance on this thread. She is never Ibo.

I wonder why you guys are blaming wike. Njc recommended the Said person and njc can't be bought or decieved. Something must be wrong with the woman for njc to sideline her. Njc can't recommend anyone without extensive investigation. Please forget the sentiment.
So you believe this bullshit you just wrote?
Guess you are in Pluto not on Planet earth and definitely not in Nigeria.

Re: Wike Not Bound To Appoint Most Senior Judge As Chief Judge-rivers Attorney Gener by Kinematics: 4:19am On Mar 27, 2021
Fillers I'm getting from many lawyer friends and family concerning this matter is that Wike has so many reasons for not appointing her, but these reasons are best known to him. The different reasons we've been hearing are just speculations eg She is retiring soon, she forged her age, she is not good with the pdp, she is not Ikwerre etc.


However we all know that if she was Ikwerre especially Obio-Akpor she would have gotten the appointment with the speed of light. Thats how trubalistic Wike has turned our dear state to.

Fergie My Bro the point I made is not to show you that I won and you lost.... Pls don't see it in that light. I have passed that level. The intention was to show you how evil minded our politicians and leaders are and also how far they are willing to go to subvert the system as long as it serves their interest.
