– Presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in the 2019 election, Atiku Abubakar has warned President Muhammadu Buhari and the All Progressives Congress, APC, not to throw the country into an avoidable crisis, following reported plan by the federal government to sack the Chief Justice of Nigeria, CJN, Justice Walter Onnoghen.

Chief Justice of Nigeria (CJN) Justice Walter Samuel Nkanu Onnoghen In a statement issued in Abuja Saturday by Atiku’s Special Assistant on Public Communication, Mr. Phrank Shaibu, the PDP candidate said the principle of separation of powers remains sacrosanct in a constitutional democracy like the one being run by the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

Atiku said the plot to sack Justice Onnoghen is a preemptive move against the bench in the face of imminent electoral defeat and knowing the role that the judiciary plays in the final outcome of elections. ADVERTISING The statement read, “We have just been made aware of the plot by President Muhammadu Buhari and the All Progressives Congress, APC to sack Justice Walter Onnoghen using flimsy assets declaration issues as a pretext.

We are aware that there are plans to arraign Justice Onnoghen before the Justice Danladi Yakubu Umar led- Code of Conduct Tribunal on Monday, January, 14, 2019. The charge against Onnoghen, we understand has already been filed and served on him last Friday at his official residence in Abuja preparatory to his appearance at the Tribunal.

”But we warn that despite the clandestine meetings in the highest echelon of the APC and also involving some top officials of the federal government which include the Code of Conduct Tribunal, neither Buhari nor the APC can re-write the Nigerian Constitution just because of its impending defeat at the February 16, presidential election

Atiku aside election

For prosperity sake

Watch and listen before you utter thrash

Atiku never disappoint, even if allegation are true...... Atiku 2019. this sounds like 2019 version of stealing is not corruption.

The CJN obviously played into the hands of those who never wanted him in that position. Let him clear himself at the CCT

NaijaRoyalty:


You're as dull as buhari

Stop spewing thrash

Shut up

Corruption is what you guys love

When will Atikuchukwu react to former PDP national chairman, Adamu Muazu's defection to APC today and telling Nigerians not to vote PDP in 2019?

Atiku aside election

Too tear you better slap to reset your brain dey worry me.

Now I know Atiku & his media aides are very dumb set of people.
Just because you are a presidential candidate doesn't mean you must commenting every issue.

This comment alone proves further that Atiku and corruption are inseparable Siamese twins

It's alright

Corruption is talking.
*incantations*
I command every Atiku supporter reading this to bark like a dog 3 times, renounce Atiku and declare for Buhari

Ignorance or forgetfulness is not an excuse

Even if you are indicted by the US Senate, the US is still wrong to ban you ..

You own $740,000 in cash

But you somehow forgot to declare $700,000 out of it

K

shut up Atiku!! you and the cow man are the same thing, APC, PDP = SELFISH POLITICIAN, you are all #GANG of LOOTERS !!!

you old cargoes met this country in good condition, see how you want to leave it for your own children, you lots should be ashamed!!

nobody will fight for you politicians. you all enjoyed scholarships abroad, Automatic jobs , shame on you and people defending you .


When this present Gang of looters called APC finish dealing with you after spending your loots on election, another Gang of looters will deal with them in the future also, LOOTERS VS LOOTERS


DINO MELAYE should enjoy the police harrasement also, that is what Nigerians go through everyday, he should have a taste of it, and may be Saraki will also taste it too, and if ATIKU will the ELECTION, TINUBU, BUBU, LAI THE MASQUERADE should enjoy govt harassment also. you have houses all over the place, when an average man is homeless, corpers used to live like king in your time, but see what you have turned the country into, corpers are now useless, you brainless looters.. your rich man cant even sleep because the poor man is hungry!

deal with your self, we will be laughing at you people till you earn our respect by making Nigeria a better place for all.

*incantations*
I command every Atiku supporter reading this to bark like a dog 3 times, renounce Atiku and accept Buhari

What a nation full of twist

Chief judge who stand as a poster boy for judiciary said he forgot to update his asset declaration since 2005 . NJC should relieve him of his duty within 48hrs. This is a national disgrace to the judiciary. Onnoghen should quickly step aside and allow the law to take its course.

Wike will be shitting and messing inside his pant right now

Even if ffk no get sense, what abt you atiku?

Every damn thing Will be politicized by PDP.

So this is the way Atiku plans to fight corruption... With air freshener?

My goodness is Atiku somebody's mentor? Am disappointed in Atiku's remarks

a thief will always side his fellow thieves......Atiku keeps shooting himself

he even make his followers doubt his credibility

Nonsense... We know APC plan for this country, satanic party...watch out as APC bigwigs will wallow in pool of blood and eventually die. Quote me and thunder will strike u

Why was the NJC bypassed in the course of hastening this alleged infraction of the law by the CJN?

Why have all the anti-corruption agencies under the all corruption encaste APC government never followed up all allegations of corruption & cases of indicted person implicated in their in-house corruption like this case?

This government reeks of nauseating hypocrisy.
