Lawyers Condemn Kogi House Resolution to Remove Chief Judge - THISDAYLIVE

A civil society and pro-democracy group, Federation of Lawyers in Active Democracy , has decried a resolution passed by the Kogi State House of Assembly on Monday demanding the removal of the state’s Chief Judge, Hon Justice Nasir Ajana from office.

They said it was another instance of the governor’s intolerance of democratic institutions, the separation of power and the checks and balances guaranteed by the constitution. “Inability to discharge the functions of office or appointment; The inability to perform the functions of his office could arise from infirmity of the mind or of body; For misconduct or the contravention of the code of conduct.

In the statement titled “A trajectory of dictatorship in Kogi State” the lawyers alleged that ever since the present governor assumed office in Kogi State the Nigerian public had been regaled with several reports of intimidation, harassment against either the house of Assembly, organised labour in the state, his Deputy Governor and now the State Chief Judge.

“The speaker that was illegally installed was equally forced to resign within one year after he complained during public sitting that Governor Bello was harassing and intimidating him.
