nameo:But the CCT never gave an order to suspend the CJN. They only advised that he step aside. And if he had obeyed and step aside, then the president can, on the recommendation of the NJC, appoint the next ranking judicial officer. I guess the president didn't fully comprehend the CCT order. The CCT never directed the presidency to suspend the CJN, they only advised the CJN to step aside by his own accord. |

@POLITICSNGR
The suspension of the Chief Justice of Nigeria,
Walter Nkanu Onnoghen has elicited a lot of
reactions from Nigerians today with many
contesting that it was against the law and some
others saying otherwise.
PoliticsNGR has now gone into the law books to
examine what the constitution stipulates on the
Removal of the Chief Justice of Nigeria. Surprisingly,
the Law make no clear distinction between the
removal and Suspension of the CJN as both terms
have very different meanings.
We gathered that Section (292) of the Nigerian
constitution expantiates on the removal of certain
public officials including the CJN. However, there is
no distinction between a suspension and permanent
removal.
It States;
“A judicial officer shall not be removed from his
office or appointment before his age of retirement
except in the following circumstances;
(a) in the case of –
"Chief Justice of Nigeria, President of the Court of
Appeal, Chief Judge of the Federal High Court, Chief
Judge of the High Court of the Federal Capital
Territory, Abuja, Grand Kadi of the Sharia Court of
Appeal of the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja and
President, Customary Court of Appeal of the Federal
Capital Territory, Abuja, by the President acting on
an address supported by two-thirds majority of the
Senate.”
(ii) Chief Judge of a State, Grand Kadi of a Sharia
Court of Appeal or President of a Customary Court
of Appeal of a State, by the Governor acting on an
address supported by two-thirds majority of the
House of Assembly of the State,
Praying that he be so removed for his inability to
discharge the functions of his office or appointment
(whether arising from infirmity of mind or of body)
or for misconduct or contravention of the Code of
Conduct;
(b) in any case, other than those to which paragraph
(a) of this subsection applies, by the President or,
as the case may be, the Governor acting on the
recommendation of the National Judicial Council
that the judicial officer be so removed for his
inability to discharge the functions of his office or
appointment (whether arising from infirmity of mind
or of body) or for misconduct or contravention of
the Code of Conduct."
Thus, a serving Chief Justice of Nigeria can only be
removed from office by the president after at least
two-thirds majority members of the Senate declare
support for the move, but in this case, it is a
suspension.

ShowYourCertificate:You are the one cannot comprehend. How will the President swear in a an interim CJN if Onnoghen doesn't step aside or suspended? Baba Buhari I love you. |
| Re: Justice Walter Samuel Nkanu Onnoghen Was Suspended Based On Court Order by ShowYourCertificate: 8:17pm On Jan 25, 2019 |
farem:The bolded is possible without sack or suspension. It's possible if the person resigns or steps aside. And that was what the CCT requested for in this case. |
| Re: Justice Walter Samuel Nkanu Onnoghen Was Suspended Based On Court Order by CoolAmbience(m): 8:19pm On Jan 25, 2019 |
googlepikins:Did you hear yourself...our own person indeed. Is he the one feeding you and your family? He is corrupt and was removed. Period! What do you mean by 'Buhari is wasting his time'?.........Onnoghen is gone. CJN position is based on seniority so your talk of '16 years' bla bla makes no sense at all. Are you a professor of law? Sagay and Osinbajo are. |

nameo:I heared u well. May be u dnt understand the constitution of the federal republic of Nigeria upon which all other laws derive their source. The ccb or cct is a direct creation of the constitution to hear matter of this kind, of course no other court orders can stop the proceedings of the cct cos is different from the regular court of law. However justice danladi gave an order on Wed. 23 dat onnoghen shud step outside tI'll the completion of trial, that exactly where the president has the power to effect the suspension, take note suspension not removal, cos in the eyes of the law suspension is different from removal. Ok |

nameo:Na night school you go? How can order to stop a further continuation of a case amounts to suspension of an earlier actions carried out by the said Tribunal? |

baralatie:Then, go and stage a protest! Mtchewww. How can a man with such solemn responsibility be so corrupt and you are here talking balderdash? |
| Re: Justice Walter Samuel Nkanu Onnoghen Was Suspended Based On Court Order by nameo: 8:25pm On Jan 25, 2019 |
pinacole1:Please don't say we had you do not know. The CCT has powers equal to a Federal high court. It is not a special court. There are no special courts in Nigeria. It is bound to obey the order of superior court. The Appeal court is clearly superior to it. In fact, the chairman of CCT 2 days ago clearly said what I just wrote above himself. Again, plzz don't say want you don't know again |

See the speed at which Buhari obey court order ![]() |
| Re: Justice Walter Samuel Nkanu Onnoghen Was Suspended Based On Court Order by nameo: 8:28pm On Jan 25, 2019 |
NgeneUkwenu:The order of the COA suspended all activities and orders of the CCT. By the way, the CCT does not even have the powers to suspend any judge at any point. So that point is even null. If we can't move beyond this, I think I will pass. Can't continue to do back and forth that is meaningless. |
