APC have achieved what they wanted, what do we expect?

Now that the TRUTH is manifest on Onnoghen’s UNCONSTITUTIONAL SUSPENSION & POLITICAL TRIAL, we hope president MBuhari and other MENTALLY ENSLAVED OfficialAPCNg supporters, will have the character & shame to apologize to Onnoghen and Nigerians! Onnoghen is our AUTHENTIC CJN!!

Elections are over MBuhari and the OfficialAPCNig have achieved their executed plan of removing the former CJN so that he will not preside over election petitions that will come up now his case has been closed and his reputation dragged in the mud. What a country what a govt.

Wasted time and energy

This Buhari led APC government is the worst we have seen in Nigeria. You took out the country’s sitting CJN when you don’t have verified evidences against him? Conducted several media trials to install another Northerner as CJN? This is the worst govt...

This country is funny

Some of us knew from the onset that the federal govt has no case in the 1st place against him. The CCB make provisions for forgetfulness 😂😂😂.

He must enter his defence.

Is it to say that they no longer find anything against him or he's been pardoned? Secondly, is he to be reinstated? Questions begging for answers.

Am not a legal practitioner. Some explain this to me. Does it mean he is innocent or not?

U see

What does that mean Please
