Fresh reports confirm that the Nigerian police have sealed
off the office of the Chief Justice of Nigeria,
Justice Walter Onnoghen, who was suspended by President Buhari, last
week,
According to a report by Punch, the move appears to stop any
possibility of Onnoghen accessing the office as policemen were said to have
sealed the office and ejected all administrative staff in the axis of the CJN
office as early as 7am on Monday.
A source said, “the police have sealed the office of the
CJN. Officers and men of the Force went to the administrative staff offices at
about 7am and ordered clerical and other staff who were already at their desks
to leave after which they locked up everywhere.”
Rhe National Judicial Council has fixed Tuesday for an
emergency meeting to deliberate on the sudden suspension of Onnoghen and
swearing in of Justice Tanko Muhammad as the Acting CJN by President Buhari.
