Before nko, how won't lawyers go to court. NBA already has its president undergoing corruption cases and thus its legitimacy has been cast in doubt.
THE CCT chair whose court u relied upon to do illegality is also on trial. so whats ur point. isnt his own legitimacy in doubt too. HYPOCRITES

we are already divided along ethnic/religious lines. what is left is the geographical manifestation. igbo thinking and hausa thinking and yoruba thinking is clearly different. we are too different.
please u all should support division so that everybody will grow along the line of its thinking lets see whether igbos wouldnt be in the fore front.

other tribes know this too but they just too jealous of the igbos thus using their negative energy to hold us down

There's no better way to fight corruption than improving the extant laws and adhering strictly to them. If someone decides, based on 'morality' to tackle corruption cases by violating the constitution and process it sets a precedence. But where does this unconstitutionality end? Admittedly it may be popular and right, for instance the morally popular punishment for armed robbers is instant execution by burning tires but the law gives the robbers room for fair hearing and a completely different sort of punishment or worst case the robber might be set free depends on the argument of his case.
Buhari's disregard for the constitution and legal process is no different from Nigerian soldiers disdain for laws of the land. That's why it is only in Nigeria soldiers do whatsoever they like to citizens and go scot free.
The executive arm of government and soldiers have always lived above the law, except you don't live in Nigeria. In fact, the top executives have immunity and unaccountable funds called security votes. Buhari himself was faced with a moral crisis to resign or not run for office since he 'forgot' or 'made a mistake' with his WAEC certificate, making him unqualified for the position, but what did he do? rather than do the moral and right thing he employed scores of SANs to use 'technicalities' to explain away and justify his missing certificate.
So, it not about what the CJN did, there is a process for his prosecution. It is about what and where the next person especially governors who are minigods would take unconstitutional means to do whatever they like since Baba has shown the world that the constitution is not important and court orders don't mean anything. There is a reason why the world vehemently rejects military governments, not because they are incapable of any good or morality.
If one doesn't like the laws or constitution, review and change it. That too, there is a process for it.

So if supposing the CJN was involved in an armed robbery case like Saraki with the offa robbery, and several Nigerians killed in the process, we should leave him to continue to preside on cases as CJN just because the timing is wronghuh? Reason with your brain now, there is a reason your brain was given to you in the first place.

- Just as a million lawyers defended Buhari when he could not provide his certificate.
- Buhari said he followed due process. So stop quoting Vladmir.
- True let God punish anybody that is supporting Buhari's corruption.

you lie and your lies consist in the fact that if Onnoghen were Hausa/Fulani you will not be so heated, so vigorous in condemning him indeed you will defend him. I pity the Southern, ignorant christians who join hands with muslims to condemn their own christian brother but when its the time to condemn a muslim guilty of the same crime the muslims will shield their own. I schooled in Zaria so i know how you guys operate

where are your posts here condemning the above mentioned persons?
unfortunately your comment expose your immaturity. you school in Zanra and know how we reason, do you know where I am from? one way to know a very hard criminal is when you discover that the criminal is found of shifting blame for his crime to another person when he has a heart of his own. what you are saying is that we should cover Onnoghen's crime because other people from the other region commit same crime abi? May rescue you before you get yourself into problem.

Their crooked and corrupt mentality says always that you can not arrest and prosecute me for stealing because other people are stealing too?

They are the most mentally crooked, corrupt and unintelligent people on the surface of the earth.

look beyond Onnoghen and deal with the issue of selective justice because while Onnoghen might be on the hot seat today, his matter one way or the other will end but the issue of selective justice practiced without shame by buhari still remains. if you will let off one criminal what basis do you have for condemning another? it doesnt matter where you are from. your thinking and mentality gives you away.
everybody said the CJN should resign just because of allegations of crime. yet Danladi Umar who has corruption cases is sitting on judgement over him.

one way to know a crook, a fraud and a knave is that such persons will never agree to fairness and equal application of the rules of justice across the board.

As expected, all these noise and protests against suspension of the corrupt Onnoghen is just like mourning the dead. sometimes, a minute silence is all we do.. some other times, we go on a day or two days public holiday..after which activities will go on like nothing ever happened...

I might be wrong about this. The lawyers probably "forgot" to boycott the courts
Did you read the part is said "waiting for session to begin" was there any session in the courts? Of course they can go to court but there won't be any sessions cuz they are on strike.. oh sorry, I forgot zombies don't read to understand.

Zombism na bastard... Even the educated reason like illiterates.
Re: #Onnoghen: Lawyers Ignore NBA Boycott Order by deomelo: 2:38pm On Jan 29, 2019
God bless the dedicated and patriotic lawyers.


The head of the NBA, the same clown the directive to boycott came from himself is on trial for corruption.

The Judiciary must be scrubbed, cleaned and totally sanitized from top to bottom.

This is not selective justice simply because the suspended CJ broke the law, he self confessed that he broke your laws and trampled on your constitution.

You can not as a lawful, patriotic and sensible human being say a self confessed law breaker be left alone because other people broke the law.

If you can not demand the resignation of the CJ, a self-confessed violator of your constitution, you have zero moral authority to turn around and blame other people for demanding his resignation or how they go about it.

You lost that moral ground and you can not hide under the constitution because by not asking the CJ, a self-confessed violator of your laws, then why bother questioning other people's authority about the constitution.

You can not ignore the constitution on one side and champion the same constitution on the other side.

You can not have it both ways. It shows that your constitution argument is bogus, disingenuous and self-serving, you care less about the constitution, you are playing games and pure politics. PERIOD

your psuedo-legal arguments are without substance. You are just spewing ignorance with so much words about the self confession of the CJN. Go and read Section 3 of the code of conduct bureau and tribunal act and then come tell me the effect of the CJN's admission.

Do I really have to read the imaginary rubbish you are talking about before understanding the fact that the suspended CJ broke the law and confessed that he trampled on the same Nigerian constitution that you hypocrites and disingenuous crocodile tears losers are crying over?

When I look at how we think, i conclude that it is good the way the country is going. It suite us cos we deserve it. Is it today that we know all this their gimmicks. They knew that the man was not with them. They checked for flaws....none. Then they remember that all of them don't declare their assets, so they sent someone to petition. Then on that ground their removed him. Swear that this is not the scenario. If its as good as u claim, or the timing was okay, why is everyone n d international community against it, please answer, Mr. Big Brain.
