This govt bringing itself to disrepute.

The worst is that they have people that should advise them well.

Osinbajo SAN
Itse sagay SAN

Keyamo SAN

Etc


But like Amaechi said , He doesn't listen.
.
Sure he has sound people to advise him and it is why what you, a nobody says is invalid.

What's makes you think those three SANs would not have done their works?

defending or attacking him will do this man no good. our politicians don't care about reputation and history books....but I feel lawyers should...

the believe that judiciary is the last hope of the common man now a disbelief..... Niaja judiciary has become the only hope of pen thieves and looters in trillions.....

It once happened to bukola saraki and he was vindicated despite the glaring evidence against him.

CJN should appear before CCT while y'all in his support and defense should get him a good and sound lawyer if his own lawyer isn't competent.
Mike ozekhome the defender of looters, corrupt politicians and criminals is there, he will also join . sad

Fools keep supporting bad leaders, corrupt leaders and thieving politicians for foolishness sake thinking they're doing themselves favor.
U dey mind all these madt ppleshocked

They want change, claim he's lifeless n not fighting corruption. Now, he's asking huge questions from d judiciary, they're all still wailing! If a whole CJN has undeclared cash of $700000, how can justice be assured!

If not say, PMB sef na mad man, why not use it to blackmail him n get favourable judgements? I trust BAT n Amaechi, iyalaya democracy!

why is the fg interfering with judiciary matters is there no longer separation of powers in Nigeria constitution anymore please someone should enlighten me more on this.
FG is the coordinator of government... It possessed the constitutional power to do so base on objectivity not being bias...

Constitution is the instruments of government of most nation-states.

It is obvious that some people deliberately misadvised the president on this issue.
A lot of people who have not read the petition have been busy running thier mouths. The CJN was never accused of stealing money. He was accused of not declaring some domiciliary account in 2009. It is important to note that he eventually declare all these accounts in 2016
The people who deliberately misadvised the president are only interested in causing more problems for him.
so becos he declared is asset in 2016 that exenorates him from declaring again upon new appointment ... from 16-18 he didnt amass in wealth ... he forgot .
the constitution was clear about what public servant can possess or own.. some tribalistic ill fated miscreants keep saying NjC should investigate & be left alone, as onooghen denied any of the allegations ... we there be fairness when a man presides over is own investigation ...
is onooghen a pdp man ... why is pdp so concerned, infact these as just compromised his position

What people are saying is that let the the njc first hear his case as stipulated by the law if found guilty then he would be suspended and stripped of his post then the cct can try him.they can't bypass the njc and convict the cjn.The move is politically motivated and its clear.It just shows that the bull in power is nepotic and stupid in its action.he will definately lose in the south south region.a shame for a president.spits!!!

I am not supprised at your response because you people don't read or update yourself. For your information, the law stipulated that asset must be declared every four years.

Buhari and the demonic party of thugs and killers called APC know they cannot win a free and fair election so they are simply tying up loose ends to ensure they remain in power by hook or crook.
They initially wanted to hold a free election in Osun state since it was their stronghold but it ended disastrously and they had to rig the elections. They simply cannot allow the fiasco that took place in osun to happen on a national scale that's why they have to get their minions into strategic places. He removed seiyefa from the DSS and now wants to finally remove the southerner onnoghen as CJN, the last piece of the puzzle.

It's the constitutional duty of the Attorney General to receive petition and take appropriate action. He doesn't need authorization from the president .


What everyone is referring to has no constitutional backing. It's an Appeal Court pronouncement which has not even been tested at the Supreme Court.
That aside, if everyone is claiming the judiciary cannot be investigated by external bodies, wherein lies the doctrine of Separation of Powers? Even the Executive, with its clearly stated immunity, cannot investigate itself against irregularities.
But we always see the Legislature and Judiciary claiming to have such powers.
Obviously, there appear to be a lacuna here and the Judiciary is just using its position as the interpreter of the law to protect it own.

There are instances where Supreme Court Judges had been arrested and investigated by external bodies in other countries

Pls follow up the story in its entirety, the same CJN you are talking about has admitted to this claims, that he "forgot", the question we should be asking is why a whole CJN will make such a dangerous omission.

While you people may be thinking it's the FG vs Justice Onnoghen, I believe there is something we are not seeing here something is afoot, cause am yet to understand why a whole CJN (with years of experience in Nigerian politics) will leave himself so exposed for these attacks. Cos I believe he was deliberately careless.

Well what do I know.
Really you don't know anything. He used the word "forgot". If he forgot it is the job of CCB to remind him and then he will confirm it. The man has no case, it is a cheap attempt by FG to tarnish his image as being not credible.

that is simply because every govt office tenure ends in 4yrs ... upon taken a new appointment or post you must declare ur asset. every post or govt office demands declaration ... the purpose of these is to efficiently access & audit the person of interest after his/her tenure in every office be it 1yr interval
we must be able to differentiate & measure what you own as a commissioner from what you acquired as a minister to see if it commensurate with income .
i tried to explain in the lamest way i could think of , if you stil cannt comprehend, sorry !! cannt solve ur problem.

People are castigating PMB forgoting that the CJN played into their hands. A whole CJN cannot say that he made a mistake in such delicate matter. A form was given to u to fill and u took ur time in filling the form and returned it back. Is not as if someone gave u 10mins to fill d form, then I can believe that becos u are rushing to fill the form u omitted certain things . But that is the not the case here. A judge that judges all kind of cases even sentencing people to death on many occassions. So u can mistakenly sentence one to death when u did not study the case and the lawyers defences well. And now , the CJN will make people believe that becos he has a familiar issue was the the reason he vindicated Saraki. Pls lets deal with facts here and leave sentiments. South south Governors that are advising him to shun the CCT are not doing him any good. And the miscreants in Niger delta that are saying that oil will seize to exist are only fooling themselves. PMB is not GEJ, so they should be careful. Since the CJN has realised his mistake and even admitted , I advise PMB to please forgive him and probably the NJC should give him a light punishment so that we can move on. Telling him to vacate his office at this time is sending a wrong signal.
