On the issue of the arraignment of the CJN,I have a different opinion from that of some of our colleagues.First of all,the CJN is a public Officer and he is required to declare his assets pursuant to the public officer act. It is not within the powers of NJC to investigate assets declaration matters. as a matter of law,it is only code of conduct Bureau that has constitutional powers to do so and the Constitution does not require the CCB to petition the NJC first before an action is taken. Besides, even in the often referred case of NGANGIWA v FRN ,the court of appeal made a powerful submission as follows: " "It must be expressly stated that if a judicial officer commits theft, fraud, murder or manslaughter, arson and the likes, which are crimes committed outside the scope of the performance of his official functions, he may be arrested, interrogated and prosecuted accordingly by the State DIRECTLY without recourse to the NJC. These classes of criminal acts are not envisaged and captured by the provisions of Paragraph 21, Part 1 of the Third Schedule." So it is not in every case that judicial crimes have to be referred to the National judicial Council. In the light of the above, I submit that the Chief justice of Nigeria is to be arraigned for offence committed as PUBLIC officer not as judicial officer.Besides the case of NGANJIWA V FRN is to protect the judicial officers acting in the cause of their duty and not to protect or shield fraudulent judicial officers(that is if they are truly fraudulent.) same was held in relation to the public officers protection act by the supreme Court in KWARA STATE PILGRIMS WELFARE BOARD v. BABA (2018) LPELR-43912(SC). 3 Likes 1 Share |

See all these 5k petition writing hungry riff raffs who called themselves lawyers . They should go to advance countries and see how lawyers operate. It's 100% impossible to catch all the thieves in Nigeria at once, it's one by one. Those calling it selective or witch hunt are purely senseless and dwarf in thinking 3 Likes |

The guy in that first picture beside the embattled CJN was an SUG President in my school days at Unibuja his name is Pelumi Olajengbesi. He was a corrupt President that embezzled union's money, he was a known corrupt President in my school days. I fear for our judicial system if people like the corrupt Pelumi finally get a federal appointment. 5 Likes |

afoobabs: The problem is not that the CJN is corrupt...the problem is that in Nigeria, we are a tribal society. People see things through the tribe. An attack on the CJN is an attack on tribal and political interests. It isn't an attack on corruption. The problem with Nigerians is, Nigerians like their corruption. We see corruption fight as a weapon to use against our enemies. We are all guilty of this. If a leader ACTUALLY fought corruption in Nigeria...prosecuted everyone without fear or favour..I guarantee that that leader would not only be overthrown, but would be murdered...and then in the years to come would be hailed as a 'hero, a saint'...while the chopping continues. 5 Likes 1 Share |
