Protesters have invaded the
national secretariat of the Nigerian Bar Association, NBA, over President
Muhammadu Buhari’s suspension of Justice Walter Onnoghen as the Chief Justice
of Nigeria, NJC.
The protesters are members of the
National Interest Defenders and Lawyers in Defense of Democracy.
President Muhammadu Buhari
suspended Onnoghen and swore-in Justice Tanko Muhammed as replacement on
Friday.
The protesters were seen
displaying placards with inscriptions such as: “Tanko Mohammed, stop parading
yourself as CJN.
“NBA must act now by ordering
lawyers to down tool.
“Amaechi, El-Rufai, Akpabio,
Malami, APC: brains behind Onnoghen’s trial.
“NJC must reconvene now and expel
Justice Tanko Mohammed”.
