This is a lie from the very pit of hell

omonaijiria:


Stop living in fool paradise.

See him shouting am not sure of what.

As if you're the one am working for.


Grab your constitution and read.

And learn

olajide8:


Even your constitution says the same thing- the court of appeal has effected same - Monday the case resumes so what exactly are you trying to justify- you know more then the constitution you are brandishing, or you know more then the justices of the appeal court- or what exactly is the basis for your argument? Rubbish

Caseless:

This man no get shame. Foreign currencies gotten from where?

PaChukwudi44:


is the court of appeal the highest court in Nigeria?

olajide8:


The same supreme court ruled in the same matter - and it was a ruling by the same onnoghen - which is a precedent in law as we speak- so?

PaChukwudi44:


Thank God its not for you to decide.Law is law and there are no sentiments in law

omonaijiria:


Am sure you're aware that NJC had already taken over the issue.

So watch what will happen on Monday.

3days away.

Till then

Jolite:
Who told you there is no sentiments in nigeria law? do you think he Onnoghen as a judge will not rule against any victim of his kind in the court?

QuotaSystem:


I know what the CCB act says (stop sounding like a scratched CD).

You have still not answered the question. Aren't you a defender of the constitution anymore?

Why did Onnoghen try to frustrate the case by indefinitely postponing NJC sittings when they were supposed to look into the allegations against him? Is that the constitutional process?

If he was truly innocent, he would have allowed the case run its course and establish his innocence, instead of trying to his position to frustrate it.

Your thread seeking his innocence lacks substance without answering the above question.

olajide8:


Don't mix things up- the NJC did not take anything over- the NJC is not a court, they are only a regulatory body which regulates the affairs of justices in the dispensation of judicial activities - they have served those involved with queries and are awaiting the responses for further deliberation, on the next line of action - simple, their powers stop at recommendations to effect - that's all

omonaijiria:


And what What the ruling.

If I may ask.

Don't tell me it's about Saraki case.

Then if that's what you're reffering to.

You're 100% out of point

PaChukwudi44:


lol very funny.You think Tanko will remain a judge if the NJC sacks him? You people joke too much.All th same I know where you are going.Thats why the senate approached the supreme court.The supreme court will do the needful after the NJC delivers its verdict

olajide8:


The NJC cannot sack him - only the judicial service commission they can only recommend to the president and if the president does not align with the reasons given after - it's his discretion.

2ndly the senate did not approach the supreme court, the senate president approached the supreme court, and the response he wants is subjudice, if any response is given to him for now, so if you want to know my own personal opinion - the senate president wants to play, we are doing something but in actual terms/fact they just kicked the problem down the road- because they can't do anything about it-

PaChukwudi44:


lol Justice Tanko will no longer be regarded as ajudge of the supreme court if the NJC indicts him.Even if the President does not implement the sacking he will no longer be assigned cases nor will he be eligible to adjudicate over any trial.The only difference will be that he will still be receiving salaries as a SC Judge.

On the othErhand if the supreme court responds that the president's action was unconstitutional and null and void Justice Onnogen will automatically return as CJN.The supreme court does not make recommendations to the president.They make ORDERS.

The senate leadership approached the supreme court not the senate president.A majority of the senate principal officers voted to take the issue to the supreme court for intepretation

olajide8:


Without me quoting it verbatim or as he delivered it- he said, if any public officer is charged to the ccb it has coordinate jurisdiction with a high court and only the court of appeal can sit in the matter and determine if the public officer has a case to answer or not if he does have a case to answer it should be established and then forwarded to the cct - for further adjudication - before an appeal for or against the ruling can be forwarded to the court of appeal, or to the supreme court if it's a case of the state against a defendant

PaChukwudi44:


what do you mind by victims of his kind? Kindly explain

Jolite:
he is a victim of the the law already by saying he forgot to declare his account,when he himself knows ignorance is not an excuse in the law.So if i were him i would have resign even before making such comment.

olajide8:


You see you vocal minorities have forgotten that there is a silent majority, the constitution that you referred to, spells out everybody function - the judicial service commission, like the police service commission, federal civil service commission is the only statutory body that has the power to sack and not the NJC - the NJC is a self regulatory body, and they can only make recommendations - now to the issue you raised - what offense has tanko committed, he accepted to be sworn in by the president in acting capacity* and how would that query be answered simple - by the ruling of the justice oputa - where he said a judge should not be found wanting because we are God representative on earth - (that's why he is one of the most revered justices of the supreme court, he was a philosopher) and where the chief justice in this case following all antecedents has been found wanting, by a self confession then the ideal thing for him to do is to step aside - and there cannot be a vacuum in the judiciary* further more justice at the supreme court is more about moral standing and not precedents, because the supreme court churns out the precedents used by the lower courts- and if a case falls within any of the precedents, they have churned out previous- that is what the judge at that lower level uses to judge the case, it's that simple

you are the one ignorant of the law.He did not break any law of the country by forgetting to declare his assets in 2009

27Pushing30:
You cannot claim to be educated and not see through the lies In his statement.

Worse still the “I DID NOT KNOW” is too much how can a judge NOT KNOW and don’t they have secretaries, p.a’s et al who also handle this kinda thing.

Before you support this man especially the average Nigerian ask yourself “IF I EVER STAND BEFORE A JUDGE WILL I DID NOT KNOW OR I FORGOT” save me

Buhari has said it long ago & i quote:the interest of the country is considered first above the rule of law. Onnoghen is a bye gone.

Jolite:
