MURIC Fires Back At US, UK For Attacking Buhari Over Suspension Of CJN by Trizzi: 11:24am On Jan 27, 2019
The Muslim Rights Concern, MURIC, has faulted the concerns raised by the United States, US, and Britain over the suspension of the Chief Justice of Nigeria, CJN, Walter Onnoghen.


MURIC said both US and Britain should not look at the suspension in isolation but consider the gravity of the offence committed by Onnoghen.

The statement reads:
“Western countries should not just jump to conclusions. They should not just make it look as if the CJN is being suspended to clear the way for some undemocratic practices. Neither the US nor Britain will allow a judge to accumulate wealth illegally because it is dangerous for the judicial system. Heavy cash lodgements in both foreign and local currencies were allegedly found in the former CJN’s accounts. No responsible government will ignore that.

“While we appreciate the interest of US and UK in evolving healthy democracies around the world, particularly in Nigeria, we will appreciate it more if these countries show equal concern for Nigeria’s war against corruption, particularly in the judiciary and in the repatriation of Nigeria’s looted funds in those two countries. Advanced democracies are not under any special obligation to listen only to the opposition and echo its propaganda. They also owe it a moral duty to hear the government’s side before making policy statements.

“To this end, we expect that both the US and UK will equally show interest in the allegation bordering on corruption made against the former CJN as they have expressed concern over his suspension. This ought to be done against the backdrop of the reputation of Nigeria which a former British prime minister described as ‘fantastically corrupt’ but which the present regime of President Muhammadu Buhari is trying hard to turn around.


“It is a known fact that no war against corruption can succeed if the judiciary is corrupt. It is the robust judicial system which both the US and UK enjoy today that allows a conducive atmosphere for democratic principles of rule of law, liberty and justice.

“We seek no less in our country, Nigeria. We find the alleged involvement of the CJN in financial misdemeanor sickening, repulsive and outrageous. A civil society group who could summon the courage demanded his sack. We no longer have any confidence in his leadership of this country’s judiciary.

“MURIC appeals to Western countries to allow the Nigerian government to clean its judiciary. It is the last hope of the common man. The filth in our judiciary will be better understood when we remember how James Ononefe Ibori of Delta State mesmerized the Nigerian judiciary for years without being punished. But he was caught in Britain and sentenced to 13 years imprisonment because the British judiciary will not take rubbish. Diepreye Alamieyeseigha of Bayelsa State also ran foul of the British judiciary before he jumped bail in 2005. This is one major reason the Nigerian government must be allowed to clean its judiciary.

“We must ask Britain if it can tolerate what is happening in Nigeria today on her own soil. For instance, the current British Lord Chief Justice, Sir John Thomas, earns £240,000 per annum. Will Theresa May, the Prime Minister, keep mum if he receives a report that his Lord Chief Justice has five bank accounts with more than $500,000 in each? Can his American counterpart, the US Chief Judge, John Glover Roberts Jnr, do the same and get away with it under Donald Trump’s watch? You show concern for Onnoghen’s suspension but not for the big sums of money he was practically caught with and which he admitted to. It hurts our sensibilities and you need to make amends.

“This is exactly what we are saying: leave our government alone if you cannot allow it to happen in your own countries. It has been happening here for long and now we have a solution to it via a democratically elected president. We have tons of confidence in Muhammadu Buhari. He sits on our treasury. He does not steal and he will not allow thieves to steal our common patrimony. We are satisfied with him as the guardian over our wealth. We do not care whether he is ‘lifeless’, ‘weak’, or ‘incompetent’. We never had it so good.

“Before we take a break, we appeal to the US and Britain to turn more attention to the repatriation of funds looted from Nigeria. The two countries will earn our respect more if this is done. We need the West’s cooperation in our war against corruption more than we need it in political demagoguery. Fairness demands that the US which expressed concern over the CJN’s suspension follows it up with a statement cautioning judges from getting enmeshed in graft and politicians from getting involved in money politics.”

I love this, the so called US banned Atiku from entering US cos of curruption. Now they are supporting the same curruption. If the said CJN case was ignored, this same US and ignorant of the law will still blame FG.

Buhari Supporters: Wailer, no room for corrupt persons in this government!

Buhari wouldn't be recognized as the President by EU/US/UK/AU if election is rigged. what that's means he would lost protection from all side.

Atiku would be swear in as the President of Nigeria from Ghana. the swearing in ceremony would be protected from UK/EU/USA /AU securities. which would make buhari illegal and vulnerable to destruction.

This is the best response to foreign countries who try to interfere in our nascent democracy.

Taking sides without hearing from the other party always result in injustice.

It's absolutely normal for the Presidency and well meaning Nigerians to rebuff such statements, because of the overbearing foreign policies and interference of these entities to a sovereign Nation, All they want is a free and fair election as enshrined in U.N's A/RES/52/129 resolution and Nigeria is signatory.

Look, democracy is a universal value based on the freely expressed will of people to determine their own political, economic, social and cultural systems and their full participation in all aspects of their lives, Majority of NIGERIANS will express their right come February and say NO!! To Atiku and his band of 40 looters, The US, EU and UK are free to come and monitor, and if anything is amiss they can head to the UN, just as its been done right now in Venezuela.

In another thread, you claimed Buhari has restored Nigeria's prestige among Nations.

How come you are now stating that foreign Nations now want to meddle into our affairs?

Your hypocrisy can only come from BMC storage.

Pls go back and read very well please...so because he has restored the prestige, he should now give room to over bearing foreign policies and statements from entities to a sovereign Nation that is bounded by UN RESOLUTIONS, which Buhari has not flouted in anyway!
