On 25th of January 2019, @MBuhari pursuant to an exparte order of the Code of the Conduct Tribunal purportedly suspended the Chief Justice of Nigeria, Honourable Justice Walter Samuel Nkanu #Onnoghnen and purportedly swore in Hon. Justice Tanko Mohammed as the Acting CJN
The Constitution is clear about the procedure for suspending or removing the CJN. The CJN can only be removed on the recommendation of the NJC. See Section 153 (1), Paragraph 21 (a) of the 3rd Schedule and Section 292 (1) (a) (i) of the Constitution of the Fed Rep of Nigeria 1999
Hon. Justice Tanko Mohammed is fully aware of the state of law, yet presented himself to be sworn in by the @NGRPresident .
