Onnoghen: IPOB accuses NJC of bias - Vanguard News

IPOB in a statement by its Media and Publicity Secretary, Emma Powerful, alleged that the NJC goofed by finding the former Chief Justice of Nigeria guilty in the offences allegedly committed by the CJN when no competent court of law has found him guilty.

“Which section in the constitution empowers the cabal led by the President to suspend the former CJN without any court conviction or recommendation of the NJC?“Again where in the constitution did Aso Rock derive the power to dismiss or suspend the Chief Justice of Nigeria? NJC should bury its head in shame, especially when it is the body looked upon to organise the judiciary and discipline the legal practitioners. Shame on NJC for this unpardonable and avoidable blunder it committed.

“Why did NJC not wait in passing their guilty verdict to allow the CJN to be convicted of any of the alleged crimes? Who did this to black people, why is it difficult for us to reason like human beings. Where is that cornerstone of justice that says presumption of innocence before proven guilty?
