President Muhammadu Buhari’s
Personal Assistant on Social Media, Lauretta Onochie, has reacted to the Code
of Conduct Tribunal, CCT’s conviction of suspended Chief Justice of Nigeria,
CJN, Walter Onnoghen.
The CCT had, on Thursday, banned
Onnoghen from holding public office for 10 years.
In his judgment over alleged
non-asset declaration against Onnoghen, the Chairman of CCT, Danladi Umar also
removed Onnoghen from office as the Chief Justice of Nigeria and Chairman,
National Judicial Council, NJC.
Umar ruled that all Onnoghen’s
monies deposited in his Standard Chartered Bank account in Wuse 2, Abuja be
confiscated, seized and forfeited.
The CCT Chairman held that the
monies in the affected five bank accounts were acquired illegally particularly
as Onnoghen could not proved his source of income for the seized monies beyond
all reasonable doubts.
Reacting to the ruling, Onochie
warned that others would soon follow.
In a tweet, Onochie wrote:
“BREAKING NEWS. Onnoghen convicted. Banned from holding Public office for TEN
Years.
“One down, Many to go! Ma Su Gudu
Su Gudu.”
