Sir, what do you make of this? Should he resign? DrJoeAbah

And enters Marvelous Super MBuhari to the rescue.... Watch this space....

We are just rubbishing ourselves before the world , other country will not longer believe in us

Story for the gods

👍

Nah!!..This one too has to step aside until this case is determined.. Let's keep the energy flowing

PDP work be this one ooo

Omo no one is safe at all. He who come to equity must come with clean hands.

the game is up, I dey watch for 3D

Hahahaah. Chaii. Shame to the judiciary.

Since he is from the herdsmen clan, I tell you, go and sleep, nothing will come out of it! After all, their grand patron is in charge! Mark my words!

His look tells it all.

The drama continues

It just keeps getting better and better

Counsel to the CJN, Sam SAN, infm the court that the plaintiff and his counsel were not in the court. He told the court that it seems the plaintiff & his counsel were “running away” from the suit they filed, stressing that the court shud do the needful in the interest of justice

Na dem ...dm

Let him resign too

He should resign honourably please!

Good one. Everything about north is dragging us back

So, Age falsification is allowed? Yeye people.

I hope the same energy used for Onnoghen will be applicable here

Bubbles game 2

Pls RT for a brother. Be security conscious. Install a car tracker to prevent car theft, monitor activities of your driver that do pick up and deliveries, school buses, Uber/Taxify car etc. Shut down stolen car with your smart phone. DM or WhatsApp: 08134544657

He should be removed immediately!!!

Now Buhari & all Buhari supporters that knows our law...get him suspended immediately, so we know you're not corrupt

Ah. Judiciary we hail thee!!!

😂😂😂😂😂

The buhari supporters as recent as 30 days ago reliably informed us that the appropriate course of action for a CJN who has been accused of wrongdoing is to step aside before he has had a chance to respond.

The government must not let him go if found guilty

I loose hope and weight in any kind of this nation's development

This case ain't going anywhere. I mean plaintiff and lawyer did not even show up to their own case! How serious can you be if you don't show up at the case you filed yourself!

This Buhari government sef ehn. Everybody just dey get comma

What goes around comes around

Acting CJN should quickly step aside. ..maintaining status quo

Tanko Mohammed is BUHARI'S boy this guy was single handedly picked by the president without proper check basically he was an emotional appointment now falsification of age it is well. Very soon we will know who stole the meat from the cooking pot

Lascojay Fraud upon fraud

The acting CJN will be the Judge for this Case hearing. Case solved 💯

Oops!

What nonsense? Didn't the plainthief know that when you initiate a process, you must be there? Was he not counselled about onus probandi before doing such epileptic dance to a CJN picked by the controller of all institutions, PMB? Dis nor be Onnoghen o!

Let's kuku change our name to Dramageria...

,u want Mary Odili or Rhodes Vivour 2 bcome acting CJN 2 preside over Atiku's petition? It will not work. That case would have been long decided b4 this one even begins

Poetic Justice

Chai!

Hahahahahahahahahaha Nigeria is the world capital of comedy. So this man that was appointed as acting that day The man should have not taken the position. Atleast to save him these embarrassment.

What is good for goose is good for the gander. CJN should step aside while investigation is conculded. Let's see how APC/Buhari will handle this one.

They'll defend anything. Ain't no'n happening to him.

I laugh in Chines 😂

Another 1

Where are the morality police? Why are they now silent?

SamEba_ Hehehehahahahahehehaha 🤦🏾‍♂️

🤣🤣🤣 nawa oho you make allegations but refused to show for court! Haha

Hope he can resign now pending hearing of this case as was done to his predecessor.

AngelFace0221 Naija my country

He should step aside for the integrity of our judiciary thatsourculture

PARA MODE

He should resign oooo

tunde_adenuga Let him resign DrJoeAbah

Okay Now Its Alleged..?.Ndi Ara..

DrJoeAbah we know your 'Law is Rusty' but please kindly share your thoughts here!

Lol, DSS will arrest the petition once he appears in court. Therefore, he won't still appear in court on Friday and the case will a natural death. This is Nigeria.

U guys should wait, is it that Bubu did not see this earlier or what is really happening 🤔 Nija drama country

let the music begin

Please step aside until this matter is resolved......

Nobody is perfect Mr integrity

E don start......

Yet the plaintiffs were absent in the court room.

Weeding is a continuous process!

Loving this show

Gen gen!!!

This country...

Aal_Rashad Already

He need to be probed,Malami over to you.

Buhari should be in court for a similar offence na

Next level

Next level

Most of Nigerian leaders are victims of one thing or the other, but they hide under the influence of power blocks to fight against each other. thisthingnaturnbyturn.

Buhari will not do anything

Nigeria administration are full of actors and comedians

Wahala de naija

Lol, you sue somebody and refused to appear in Court as the plaintiff. That’s stupidity.

75% of our civil servants are guilty of this particular crime, meanwhile I already know they will never allow this man to rest in peace cus of the circumstances surrounding his appointment. Devil's offer, he will give you with right hand and take it with left hand

The petitioner didn't appear in court. Probably he just decided to bring this scandalous situation to public notice while he petitions NJC. For now all fingers remain crossed.

If found guilty he should resign, this should also apply to other positions.

What is wrong in someone using his football age?

Again

🤣

Nogowork

from December 31, 1950 to December 31, 1953 upon being appointed to Nigeria Bench as a judicial officer.. This is interesting... He should be 68 years now.

He probably attended his naming ceremony.

Una dey him naming ceremony?

Hmm!

Ko le werk. His boss nko?

Pls show me one Nigerian that isn't corrupt..

I have seen this script before in someone's dream. It ended up like I-De-Osun NYSC saga with PT doing the countdown after the fogery was exposed. Will PT initiate a countdown on this too? Shittu got lucky it's almost May 29. Next level Mara Jess too obvious. Isn't it?

What goes around comes around 🤷👌

Is this only picture the chief justice has? Smh

Nothing go happen. Na them get government.

Where are all those useless hypocrites? Now ask Tank to resign o, then quote to him that no man should be seen to be above the law. I hope Tanko is a man.

Ok na!

Hahahahaha in fulani

Acting fulani justice

Game of Thrones. Oríṣiríṣi

You haven't learn not to be stupid from me abi, fact check before your gossip eyin ode

I need to take a seat..

He may not have a WAEC result too like his boss

The powers that be in Nigeria have turned the sacred Temple of Justice to a shrine of ridicule.

Everybody does this so no p.

will Buhari also tell him to step aside until the case has been resolved?

Has he stepped aside yet?

Time to dance to same music.

He need to resign and save he judiciary's image please. It is the honourable thing do

Not sure anyone bothered to read the story.. filed a lawsuit and not present at the court for proceedings..

Use and dump....

They will never allow the petioner or his lawyer to appear in court. They will put State might to use. Intimidation, harassment and detention. At the end, the case will be thrown out.

So proud to be a Nigerian. Funny country, funny people.

Keep laughing.. This is Nigeria comic Nation

OK NOW GO DOWN LOW

Wonderfullycre1 What a Drag 😂😂😂

Gbagam! Gbagam!

el_ameedd hmmm

acresofsaphire Toor

Waiting for Festus Keyamo's dusty yarns

SantinoEd 😂😂😂

In my husband voice e nor dey tay

Justice Tanko must step aside in order to allow for fair dispensation of justice in this court case against him

All these is to try and remove this man so that they will have a judge that will make Atiku winning at the Supreme Court. But unlike Onnoghen, this one no go work.

OK

so the 'squeaky clean' ascetic looking islamic jurist isn't so 'squeaky' afterall....waiting to see 'their' defence

dondekojo Let wait and see if those who asked onnogen to resign on moral grounds ,will also ask him to resign before the case starts.

Nawa oh.... May God help us

Ride on acting chief justice of Nigeria. No weapon passion against you, shall prosper!

Drama for this country, ehn...We dey here! Onnoghen was false asset declaration, Tanko's, is age falsification.

Hello Sir, I hope all is well

Our country is just a variation between comedy central, cartoon network and africa magic. Banana Republic! Tueh!

let the law tell, if they will not look for technicalities to knock it out

Don't worry, The 'principal' will soon say he doesn't know the Technology used in detecting his real age now.

What goes round, comes around. Shameful people

Comedy country

Ghen ghen!!!

If you remove him from the post of CJN who will agree to be there. Abeg leave him there.
