The group said a recent statement credited to the CJN will endanger the nation’s democracy.

Some civil society organisations under the aegis of the Coalition of Civil Societies of Nigeria on Friday held a protest at the entrance of the National Assembly demanding the removal of the Chief Justice of Nigeria, Olukayode Ariwoola, over a ‘partisan comment’ he made in Rivers State.

He said the CJN has descended into the arena of politics, adding that Nigerians can no longer trust him to be non-partisan. “We demand his immediate sack as Nigerians no longer have confidence in his person as an impartial judge. Chief Justice of Nigeria Tajudeen Olukayode Ariwoola’s affinity in political dispute is a mark of interference capable of truncating the good efforts already put in place by the National Assembly.

Mr Balogun added that “the CJN should resign, failing which our coalition will press for all legitimate means through citizens revolt for him to vacate the exalted, impartial and independent office of the Chief Justice of Nigeria”.“A few days ago, we came out to save our hard-fought democracy.
