Then you should except APC to go extra miles in bringing the man down. PDP should forget this election because APC planted spies in PDP are doing wonders.

Wike once boasted that this CJN was on PDP side

Been with PDP means you have been put to shame already. People have been saying how PDP planned to used the man to win in tribunal means both PDP and their sympathizer have failed. So you guys should map out a new plan. APC are smarter than you think.
You mean same way Buhari elected a family member to head INEC.... Okay, continue o. Buhari knows the buck ends with the Supreme Court in this upcoming election and thus, wants to remove him to put his aboki fellow up there.... Lies, won't work.

Interesting! So Onnoghen's wasn't a case of 'national security' hence why it was leaked released? Talk about double standards. If I am also correct, PMB didn't release his right?
Pmb did not release his own under advise

What law?

Afe Babalola will be quoting nonsense...

The CJN has been sufficiently indicted by the issues on ground and has a case to answer.

Even the president can be docked at the CCT tribunal, how much more the CJN?
Come bros, madam, brosdam or whatever you are!
Sufficiently indicted? By who? Your imaginary panel of inquiry? You use English without having any understanding of what you are saying!
Ekpa!

Ofurukpe!

Why hasn't CJN been used to win Ekiti and Osun election in favor of PDP. He has been at his job diligently but for your attempt to destroy his repution.

However, you can only try; you will not get him to submit your party.

The CJN has accepted responsibility and blamed the inconsistency in his statements on "forgetfulness"

It is left for a court to decide if this reason is sufficient..

Our constitution needs an amendment. A man cannot be a judge in his own cause. How can they go through NJC when CJN is their chairman?

Re: South-south Governors Ask CJN Onnoghen To Shun CCT by 0nyedikachukwu: 11:37pm On Jan 13, 2019
Even if the CJN is guilty as charged, the suddenness and haste of this accusation and hearing is questionable. For crying out loud, this isn't a thief caught in one market, stealing people's wares. Even those criminals ain't tried as quickly as this. This election will be marred by corruption if the presidency succeeds in taking out this CJN and installing his own right hand boy.

Wrong move by the SS governors. That wouldn't be good for his image as the representation of the symbol of justice in Nigeria. These governors should not set a precedence.

He should rather appear and defend himself to show a certain leader what it means to respect the rule of law.
/
He shouldn't appear. But he must back his non-appearance with an ex-parte order declaring his invitation unconstitutional. He should understand the power in fighting dullards with superior arguments and calculated judicial maneuver.

I have just two questions:
1. Who is the chairman for NJC?
2. What time do you think would be more appropriate to question one with infractions like this?
3. Talking about time, do you think putting Evans, Rev King, Late Alex Bade on trial at they commenced is the better time?
1. He is not the sole member. When the council convenes, he will step aside as the chairman and the matter will be addressed on its merits
2. The appropriate time will be after the council has deliberated on it. See 1 supra
3. This question does not make sense and lacks merit. In any case you sought leave to ask only 2 questions.

But for petes sake the man can step aside for another person to review the matter when the council convenes but not before. At common law, you counter illegality with illegality.

With the allegations against the CJN, he has lost credibility to preside and so, cannot continue in office. These governors are bigots playing politics with a sensitive issue concerning an important arm of government. The situation is so bad that whether he honours the summon or not, the damage has already be done and the only option left for him is to throw in the towel and save judiciary from further embarrassment.
Re: South-south Governors Ask CJN Onnoghen To Shun CCT by busomma:
This tells u the caliber of leaders we hv in Nigeria. Governors advising Chief Justice of the Federation to ignore the summons of a constituted authority. What example are they trying to set ? I guess they ignorantly forgot the awesome power of federal federal government. They hv the power to take ur life & nobody can do a damn thing about it. The dishonorable CJN should know better anyway.

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

Those governors have the resources and wherewithal to mobilize militants to resume onslaught on the oil facilities. Buhari should retrace his steps before its too late.
Let them mobilize and destroy the whole country if they like. There is no spare Nigeria in europe, middle east or America so at the end of the day, they will also have their share of the hardship.

Blame your prosecution lawyers if you strongly feel that Saraki should have been senetenced especially because CJN did not preside over the case and besides, the law is blind-folded and relies on evidenced facts presented to it in course of Justice, not sentiments, assumptions and unproven allegations like the ones you trumped up against Saraki and recently against the CJN.

When you have allegations against someone, you have a responsibiliyy to prove it in the court of law or forever hold your peace.
