Haba! Paragraphs 5,7 and 7 even offends 115 E.A 2011.
Well it's a good draft cos even if you esponge the offending paragraphs, there is still sufficient material facts to grant same.

A.G fed should know better. Just hoping this A.G won end up worse than Michael Andoakan (SAN) as he then was.

There is always an end to everything under the sun except time and chance

Sound Written Address. Read and educate your good selves. Due process must be observed. You cant decide to change the position of the pitch in the middle of the match because you have sinister intentions not minding how you will achieve it. Dear FRN, there are laid down rules, follow them.

Going by the afore precedence, the curious questions for this APC government, CCB and the petitioners are:

-1).How did the petitioner accessed the CJN's asset declaration forms @ the CCB since only the declearer is allowed by law to order the CCB to allow public access to such info contain therein?

Just as Cambridge Syndicate replied that only Buhari have the right to authorized the release of his alleged certificate who conducted the then exam on behalf of WAEC.

-2).Is it no clear & certain that the CCB & petitioner committed a grave criminal breach of trust & thereby violate the right of privacy of the CJN by this malicious act?

-3).Why did the FG/presidency via the morally corrupt AGF bypassed the NJC protocol, does the CCT have any juridiction to trial a judicial officer without the NJC's approval? Why did the FG asked the CJN to vacate office when he have not been tried or found wanting?

Why wait till the eve of a crucial election wherein the president Is a stakeholder before this "prosecutorial misadventure" according to Mr.Femi Falana? Is the govt not obviously up to sometime sinister?

-4).Why did the corrupt & morally depraved APC-govt hasten up this show of shame with supersonic speed while the same regime have annoying footdraggged on the numerous corrupt indictment of many top & low members of it fold up till date?

The most sensational is the bias failure of the EFCC to investigate the Gov.Ganduje dollar bribe scandal? The government have simply took on more than it can contain.

I still strongly belief that all the FG desire to achieve from this trial is to discredit and unstettle the CJN ahead of the already envisaged litigations from disputed elections.

Clearly, this case won't end anytime soon.
It is very obvious and some idiots will tell you that Buhari is fighting corruption or that you are defending corruption.

It took the Buhari Govt a long time to confirm the CJN appointment on the ground that they are conducting background checks.

After conducting Bbackground checks, u appointed someone who didn't declare his assets and u waited till election eve to remove him.

The speed and ease at which they follow this case shows their sinister motive, but they will fail.

Buhari, u are a failure and you need someone to tell you that

He declared his assests but did not declare all. He lied about it. Adeosun was quiz by NAaS yet they could not get that her Nysc cert was forge. When the issue came up she was made to resign.

Is Bank Account an Asset?

The duty of CCB is to invite a public officer to update his/her Assets declaration when any discrepancy is dictated. You don't prosecute without inviting the person in charge for correction.

If I may ask, where is Buhari's Assets declaration form? Let's check for discrepancy?

Quite frankly underwhelming... undecided

The entire preliminary objection appears anchored upon an underlying premise that the CCT process is to “remove” the CJN from office, when there is absolutely no mention thereof in the reported charge sheet. Obviously, it is NOT within the purview of the CCT (or the CCB) to remove the CJN from office, but it is certainly within its authority (and thus its substantive jurisdiction) to hear and rule on petitions brought against any officer listed in the Constitution for failure to properly declare his/her assets.

The contention of the preliminary objection is essentially akin to arguing that because only the Senate (and Senators voting in the chamber) can impeach and remove the Senate President under the Constitution, a sitting Senate President cannot be tried by the CCT for improper asset declaration. Obviously, such an argument did not prevail for Saraki at the same CCT (and even the Supreme Court upheld the CCT’s jurisdiction in the Saraki case), so why would anyone think it would in this instance?

(Video): Buhari Caught Sharing Money To Yoruba Traditional Rulers At Aso Rock

A cross-section of South West traditional rulers that paid a courtesy call on President Muhammadu Buhari at the Aso Rock Villa on Friday received what appeared to be monetary gifts in brown envelopes, a trending video has showed.

The Yoruba traditional rulers that visited the president included the Ooni of Ife, Alake of Egbaland, Ayangburen of Ikorodu, Oloye of Oye Ekiti, Olukare of Ikare Akoko, Aseyin of Iseyin, Deji of Akure and Alayemore of Ido Osun.

In the 28-second video captured by Channels Television, National Leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and Chairman of the APC Presidential Campaign Council, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu can be seen talking to reporters while one of the traditional rulers standing beside him turns around to receive a bulky brown envelope believed to have been padded with cash.

It is not uncommon for visitors to government houses to receive cash and other material items as “thank you” gifts and it remains uncertain if the content of the envelope was one of such.


Watch Now! Buhari Zero Integrity!

Re: CJN: Preliminary Objection Challenging The Jurisdiction Of The CCT by shanaka4u(m): 8:54pm On Jan 14, 2019
On the issue of the arraignment of the CJN,I have a different opinion from that of some of our colleagues.First of all,the CJN is a public Officer and he is required to declare his assets pursuant to the public officer act.
It is not within the powers of NJC to investigate assets declaration matters. as a matter of law,it is only code of conduct Bureau that has constitutional powers to do so and the Constitution does not require the CCB to petition the NJC first before an action is taken. Besides, even in the often referred case of NGANGIWA v FRN ,the court of appeal made a powerful submission as follows: "
"It must be expressly stated that if a judicial officer commits theft, fraud, murder or manslaughter, arson and the likes, which are crimes committed outside the scope of the performance of his official functions, he may be arrested, interrogated and prosecuted accordingly by the State DIRECTLY without recourse to the NJC. These classes of criminal acts are not envisaged and captured by the provisions of Paragraph 21, Part 1 of the Third Schedule." So it is not in every case that judicial crimes have to be referred to the National judicial Council. In the light of the above, I submit that the Chief justice of Nigeria is to be arraigned for offence committed as PUBLIC officer not as judicial officer.Besides the case of NGANJIWA V FRN is to protect the judicial officers acting in the cause of their duty and not to protect or shield fraudulent judicial officers(that is if they are truly fraudulent.) same was held in relation to the public officers protection act by the supreme Court in
KWARA STATE PILGRIMS WELFARE BOARD v. BABA (2018) LPELR-43912(SC).
