The National Judicial Council (NJC) rose from an emergency meeting on Wednesday and elected to be silent on its report on the probe of petitions against suspended Chief Justice of Nigeria (CJN), Justice Walter Onnoghen and Acting CJN, Ibrahim Muhammad.

The NJC, which considered the report of its five-man committee constituted to investigate petitions against Onnoghen and Muhammad, said it has decided to send its report to President Muhammadu Buhari rather than making it public in view of “the nature of the decision reached

Its spokesman, Soji Oye said, in a statement on Wednesday, that the NJC refrained from considering the allegation relating to asset declaration involving Onnoghen, “because it’s was subjudice.”

The statement reads: “The National Judicial Council reconvened today in an emergency meeting to consider the report of the five-man committee constituted to investigate the allegations of misconduct made against Hon. Mr. Justice W. S. N. Onnoghen, GCON and Hon. Mr. Justice I. T. Muhammad, CFR.

“Council decided that the allegations relating to assets declaration that were levelled against Hon. Mr. Justice W. S. N. Onnoghen, GCON were subjudice and therefore abstained from considering them.

“Council reached a decision on the petitions written by Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) and others and conveyed its decision to President Muhammadu Buhari, GCFR.

“Council also resolved that, by the nature of the decision reached, it would be inappropriate to publicise it before conveying it to Mr. President.”

NJC reports now go to the President only instead of releasing it to the public when they are supposed to be independent? Useless NJC...dead country!

Why the silence ?so the evil presidency can Hijack the report again ...NJC should have announced it's findings to the world ...Shameless Judiciary !!!!

I don't understand the workings of the Judiciary so will observe quietly.

Onnoghen case should have been dead and buried and his ass jailed.

It's no surprise the way cases are unduly dragged in court.

Buhari will still want that Mohammed....

See oo

I'm beginning to fear this njc people o

Onnoghen has Biafra blood running in his veins

Onnoghen has Biafra blood running in his veins

Onnoghen has Biafra blood running in his veins

The suspense is crazy. Lol

Onoghen has a lot of shady deeds, the NJC want to plead soft landing for Onoghen with our amiable president.

Thunder fire corruption, God bless our president.


Osinbajo 2023.

Onnoghen will surely have the last laugh







Shame on vindictive buhari

We are waiting for the report.

Where is premiumtimes when you need their investigative journalism prowess. They should follow up on this ASAP to avoid stories that touch.

They are silent because they have no case against the innocent man. But want to cook up something extremely foolish

life

.

Na wash Onogeh is a goner as long as he has been indicted indirectly or directly on the asset declaration ongoing case. The best case scenario will be for him to retire and enjoy his entitlement in his farm. I wonder why some people are crying fowl for an already made man leaving their own future to achieve nothing.

This NJC are unserious, they are only trying not to heat up the polity, which buhari has already heated up. Why sending the report to the same executive that publicised the disgrace of a CJN with total disregard for the law and NJC.

In saner climes this report would be made public.

The Judiciary needs to man up and be a truly independent body.

Silent because he is guilty.

It's good they have reached a decision. But how long do we wait for the implementation?

Okay, but when it's time to vilify the man they'll do it openly abi?

Wasted country.
