The new Chief Justice of Nigeria, Justice Ibrahim Muhammad, will on Saturday (tomorrow), swear in members of the National Assembly, governorship and state assembly election petition tribunals, The PUNCH has learnt.

Muhammad was sworn-in by President Muhammadu Buhari on Friday afternoon shortly after announcing the suspension of the substantive CJN, Justice Walter Onnoghen, who is facing charges of corruption before the Code of Conduct Tribunal.

The election petition tribunals will be expected to handle disagreements that may arise from the conduct of the elections which begin in three weeks.

Born on December 31, 1953 at Doguwa – Giade, a local government area in Bauchi State, Justice Muhammad attended Ahmadu Bello University where he received a bachelor’s degree in Law in 1980.

He later obtained a master’s degree and doctorate from the same university in 1984 and 1998 respectively.

So in a hurry

This is their motive.... Buhari Nigeria would resist you.

Dont be deceived by praise singers, the chips on ground are not in your favour, you would loose.

Very good.

All those that paid onnoghen upfront can ask for a refund.

Hope he hasn't forgotten his pin code?

no time. Atiku and co will need the tribunal.

Sai Baba so quick?
Even the bible say " fear north"

Mission accomplished, now they will select those of their own who will handle the election tribunal cases.
Nigeria is FINISHED.

This is what Buhari was trying to stop and now he has created a constitutional crisis. such a dullard

I hope u understand the gravity of this madness by the president?

This has further destroyed the little respect for Nigeria by different nations around the world.

He did this so as to stop Onnoghen from raising this tribunal he made this man to do.
What a madness.

The desperation of the Buhari-led APC regime is obviously palpable.However, this is just the final beginning of its downward collapse.

Na wa for people o, even sagay can't defend this.

If he defends this madness by the president then he can defend the devil.

This would not stand anywhere... Buhari is just creating a constitutional crisis. The removal of CJN is stated in the constitution. Suspending Ononghen and appointing Tanko immediately is fishy, and it wouldn't stand anywhere.

-1).The ICPC/police gave silly silly reason why they cant arrest or prosecute Kemi Adeosun/Adebayo Shittu who is still a minister of the Federal Republic despite not even attaining the NYSC scheme.

-2).EFCC have also given reason why Maina could not be arrested/prosecuted.Now they're also telling a bewildered nation why the DSS-indicted APC party chair Oshiomole not be investigated.

-3).Prof.Sagay have justified why Madam Kemi should continue in her NYSC certificate forgery/perjury criminality while the same fool is shamelessly calling for the prosecution of the CJN.

-4).Obono-Obla have justified why Abdulrasheed Maina should be retained back then by the government.While president Buhari have inturn kept Obono-Obla in position despite overwhelming evidence he forged WAEC certificate to study Law @ Univ.of Jos.

-5).President Buhari have defended & exornerated Lawal Babachir/Ibrahim Magu/NHIS Sec & now the almighty Ganduje babanriga bullion van dollar bribe scandal even calling him a "responsible" corrupt man with integrity.)

-6).Lawal Daura have defended why Ayo Oke(NIA/Ikoyi-gate) and Ita Epenyong should never be investigated by the EFCC.

-7).The presidency have exonerated Aisha #2.5B "gifts" Scandal, VP Osinbajo's 5.58B NEMA scandal, Ahmed Sirika's #1.5B imaginary "Air Nigeria" scam.

Pls argue with your brain as far as this govt.is concerned.
