The presidency has yet to confirm the receipt of a letter of resignation by the suspended Chief Justice of the Federation, Justice Walter Onnoghen.

The News Agency of Nigeria reliably gathered that Onnoghen’s resignation letter was submitted to the Chief of Staff to the President, Malam Abba Kyari, by some Justices of the apex court.

NAN, however, learnt that the Justices who submitted the letter arrived at the presidential villa a few minutes after President Muhammadu Buhari had left Abuja for Jordan to participate in the World Economic Forum on Thursday.

A presidency source confirmed to NAN that President Buhari had, before his departure, received the National Judicial Council’s recommendations on the petition written against Onnoghen and the acting CJN, Justice Tanko Muhammad.

The report was submitted to the president by his Chief of Staff, Mallam Abba Kyari, who was accompanied by the Attorney-General and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami, at about 2:20 p.m.

The Director, Information, NJC, Mr Soji Oye, on Wednesday in a statement, confirmed that the council had sent its report to President Buhari after the conclusion of its investigation into the petitions against Onnoghen and the acting CJN.

Efforts to speak to presidential spokesmen, Mr Femi Adesina and Mallam Garba Shehu, on the matter, proved abortive as the duo were outside the country on official and private engagements.

NAN reports that Adesina is currently on President Buhari’s entourage to Jordan while Shehu is in Saudi Arabia on pilgrimage.

nice one

More plans for babarigging and Gandollarisation!!!

Buhari must prosecute this man naaa, Haba!!!! Which kin moda fvcking silence.. I am starting to think tunde idiagbon was responsible for all the anticoruption war during their military tenure....

These Almighty judges would forget youths forever in a prison after asking for the most stringent bail condition ever and forming Awaiting Trial while they laugh at their Judicial meetings and share dollars while calling youths mumu that can never do





.

I dont know sha, make I kuku keep dad...

Observing...

Onnaghen's resignation is Just like a player feigning injury and so he can be taken off the field on a stretcher when he knows the referee is gonna show him a red card.

I trust Buhari to follow him even to the dressing room to show him that red card. He must face the full wrath of the law.

Game over!

.MR ONNOGHEN enjoy your billions malami has already prepared ,released by emiefele as instructed by MR INTEGRITY .....God bless buhari the undisputed champion of hypocrisy

To them. It's JOB WELL DONE

So they still submit letters by hand in our civil service??

No wonder common Ghana is rated higher than Nigeria.

Alejoas:



Game over!

You can say that again

Aim achieved, so why won't they keep mum?

Now that Onnoghen has resigned with immediate effect, where are the Senior Advocates?

Rice don soft, bring ur plates

Voice of Jacob and the hand of Esau

Dirty tricks of Nigerian government playing out.

Onnoghen is a scam.

He doesn't want to lose his retirement benefit knowing the direction the case is going and the evidences against him, he quickly resigned

I am saying it again. All the confused anti-Buhari (for doing the right thing for greater good) will be alright las las.

Kanu, Onnoghen, Atiku, Fayose, Davido's uncle should all teach them a lesson in life. Good will always triumph against evil for common good.

lol Whose mum did the presidency keep?

God abeg o

Yaa Buhari Traveled nah!

I have tried as much as possible to stay off politics but can u fools just realised that what happened will also deal with u when u can not get justice? Which evidence are u talking about when those witnesses proved he is innocent of the charges pressed against him?

Have pity on your unborn generation.. Tueh

The case is moving in his favour but the president does .not want to work with him, because of trust mostly now that ATIKU has gone to court, had it been ATIKU did't go to court the issue would have been settle now because TRUELY Justice ONNOGHEN IS NOT THAT GIUTY TO MANY OF THE COUNT CHARGES ITS POLITICS.....I PRAY NOT TO EXPERIENCE ONNOGHEN IN LIFE...

There is more to this than the ordinary Nigerians can see.

Why dem nor keep dad? Which kain wahala be dis self
