Yes,

There is only one way outlined in the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria for suspending OR removing a Chief Justice EVEN when it is a matter emanating via Code of Conduct.

BUHARI REQUIRES TWO-THIRDS of the SENATE.

This desecration of the constitution he swore to uphold is gross misconduct by Buhari and an IMPEACHABLE offence


PRESIDENT and VICE-PRESIDENT
They are BOTH equally guilty of gross misconduct.

Since their ambition is worth the blood and lives of Nigerians let them come and be going.

NIGERIA NEEDS PEACE

At this moment let all the sensible people supporting Buhari join hands together with other patriotic Nigerians to send Buhari packing.

I have seen many crazy people on Nairaland than in Nigeria as a whole. The fact that you are a supporter of Buhari does not mean you should defend every of his wrong doings.

The reasonable supporters of Buhari are already having a rethink.

CJN was guilty as accused but DUE PROCESS needs to be followed. We Nigerians are not supporting a corrupt Judge, all we are saying is that the RULE OF LAW should be obeyed. That you caught a boy who stabbed his father to death does not mean he will be killed immediately without first charging him to court.

All reasonable Muslims and Christians should rise up and defend the labour of our heroes past.

Anybody supporting Buhari is like him,a tyrant.

impeach him ans Nothing will happen. I repeat nothing

Nonsense talk...which civil war?....who wants to fight the civil war..I hope its ffk n his family members only. U cannot impeach the president based on this.......the cj should go to court to fight, isn't tht what he stands for in d first place

Which due process wasnt followed. Every body uses d loopholes of d law. The law talk about removal.....he was suspended not sacked. These r two different things

Am sure even Omo-agege the maze thief would be dumbfounded this time around.

The Infamous Buhari is not fit a democratic president.

We shouldn't be gullible, no sane man would support what BUHARI just did, he has just thrown the door open for so many court cases, the election has not started but the feelers we're getting says it'll never be FREE AND FAIR. he should follow the due process to remover the CJN out. Tyranny should not be allowed this is a democratic government, the president is being advised wrongly on this path. Yes the Justice is wrong and is being tried but 'due process' should be followed.

Buhari should not be impeached

Buhari should be humiliated at the polls next Month

Onnoghen should be arrested by the DSS.

Impeachment takes not less than 3 months.

The PDP does not have an ordinary simple majority in both houses.

An impeachment will not work

Impeachment , that can never be possible

Wait oo. Has Obasanjo reacted to Onnoghen's suspension? Probably..

According to the constitution abi? But you people will not want to follow the constitution when it comes to removing the CJN.
So saraki can decide to impeach General Buhari today with 10members and another person takes over since nobody wants to respect the constitution again..

Is okay!
