no one said or is saying that some people are above the law. The protest is not about the suspension of the CJN but the fact that buhari bypassed the constitution of nigeria which is supreme and which the president must abide by.
Nothing stops buhari from lobbying the njc to submit a removal letter to the president. Then with a 2/3rd of the senate, the cjn will be removed. Why didn't he do that?

cos he knows the house will not approve it and meanwhile the house have not resume plenary..

izombie:
no one is above the law, buhari included. But this action by buhari, which you support, seems like he's above the law. Is buhari above the law?

Buhari is not above the law..and going through the Senate is time consuming..

alezzy13:
Both were wrong there is no doubt about. GEJ should not have removed SLS the way he did, and PMB should not have suspended the CJN

However to put the governor of CBN on the same pedestal as the CJN is plain silly. CJN heads an independent arm of govt; he is the fifth most powerful Nigerian after speaker, fo cryin out loud!!!!! CBN is more or less an appendage of the finance ministry.

Can PMB suspend the speaker of the house or the Senate president? Can the Senate president suspend d executive?? So why do we justify this brazen act of tyranny?

Justice Ayo Salami was also the president of Court of appeal, a judiciary that Indipendent of executive, yet Jonathan suspend him. The same people shouting about the death of democracy today were jubilation when Sanusi was suspended despite the fact that he was the one that leaked how billions of $ was diverted by Minister of finance and minister of petroleum.

I don't support any of the actions but our hypocrisy is too much down south. We called Jonathan hero for doing this and we are calling Buhari a tyrant for doing just once what Jonathan did twice.

Topmaike007:

that's what the constitution says because the judiciary should and must remain independent. Buhari is a menace and should be impeached. If going through the senate is time consuming then we should hand the mantle over to the military.

rexlims:
I see so many pro APC comparing suspension of d cjn and that of cbn governor.
I will ask a question and I want honest answers.
Who does d cbn governor report to? And who does d cjn report to?
Let us thinks critically and stop playing politics with everything.
Time will definitely tell and I pray when it does we will not be victims of miscarriage of justice.

Justice Ayo Salami that Jonathan controversially removed in 2011, Please which arm of government is he and who does he report to?

Asshurbanipal:
CBN is not an arm of the government

Have you forgotten that your hero, Jonathan once suspended a certain Justice Ayomide Salami in 2011. Please which arm of government was he then?

Political imbecil.es. Who compares Cjn(independent arm of goverment) with cbn(appointment of the president)

but apc is supposed to be different. Besides, jonathan acted on the recommendation of the njc which is constitutional. Why compare buhari with jonathan? I thought buhari is your messiah and mr integrity.
