It is not necessary

We better build strong institutions now or never.

Impunity has no place in Nigeria

Could that stop the elections?

Their presence is just for formality they aren't needed. If they had attended it will be just for eating jolof rice and coke

Am very sure onnoghen was removed because of that inauguration God l believe you are watching us

so soon?

Then let him come and resign amicably or he remains suspended. Period!

OfficialPDPNig I expect that they go beyond just shunning the inauguration. A very decisive & deterrent action needs to be done by them.

Their absence didn't stop the swearing. After a little while (after his confirmation) they will start hailing him

Do not give in to nonsense. Good judges, lawyers and all legal practitioners should stand firm to protect this noble profession.

CJN stands suspended & nothing would change that. Word ' forgot' is an ignorance of law, law would now take its full course untill judgment has been passed. Imagine the CJN of a country failed to declare his assets & confesses he forgot. What a rotten system.

Let Buhari continue his private company inauguration with his cohorts, we will not accept it.

Maybe he forgot it...like he did to declare some of his assets..

They should be retired immediately and new set of justices should be brought to the supreme court. The anti corruption crusade should be total. You are either in or out!

They’re mostly corrupt judges. Shameless. A judge has over $3m undeclared in acoounts and can’t explain source. The same judge stops d process of his indictment. They hv d gall to accept bribes and when caught tell us to go to hell. These are satanic judges. Apostles of Lucifer.

Not surprised by the action because they are corrupted judges

Na them sabi. They have no option but to comply. Else the also he the boot. It's that simple. Ridding our Country of corruption is a collective task for all of us.

Glad we still have some sane heads in the judiciary

He couldn't shake hands due to lack of time. Where was he running to at that time? 😂😂

Good move!

This acting Chief Justice of Daura never see anything yet 🚶🚶🚶

Fake News

This is a clearer now that most of them too would have made mistake of not declaring their assets

I am not surprised because birds of the same feather flock together.

Because they were disappointed with juicy tribunal duty

Did that stop the swearing in?

A wise exercise of discretion here! Truly this abberation will not last...! Clearly and convincingly those behind this onslaught against the Judiciary will regret their evil moves

oluwaloninyo Nigeria is finish

Justice Tanko, please keep that size 10 boot firmly on them.

OfficialPDPNig Good! Right step!

It's a lie. Daily trust are misleading.

Flash back! 'According to Section 11 of the Interpretation Act, Cap 123, Vol. 8, LFN, 2004, the NGRPresident can suspend indefinitely but not remove without senate. And the President just exercised this” Mike Ozekhome ,SAN backing GEJonathan's removal of Justice Salami

They are on their own. Na today ?

Loyalist and cohorts!!

Good one

Good one. I salute all the Justice that took this democratic decision. God bless Nigeria's Democracy!

Bethar_I

Let all of them resign to show their displeasure.

Bunch of corruptions... t

If mouth eats eye will be shying.

for all those defending Buhari should know this is Democratic Government. If you said Buhari is right by attacking our Judiciary our one arm of Government which we all fought to get. They should all remember it will gets to their turn tomorrow

But he has been inaugurated with or without.

We should not forget that it was the former CJN that selected those that sworn in and not the acting.

March 2018, Justice Ibrahim Tanko was a member of the NJC that sanctioned Justice Obisike Orji of Abia state, forcing him on a compulsory retirement for being sworn in as Acting Chief Judge of Abia state without approval of the NJC. Same Tanko committed

God bless the supreme court justices... Watch MBuhari attack them now .

The best news in January 2019 .....

Let Buhari go and represent them since he wants to be a dictator,nice one.

I feel good again. That type I had when Atiku travelled to the USA. This is the height of Abuse of Power and Goodwill of the people.

That will not stop d inauguration

akaebube Buhari will arrest all of them😂😂😂

adeyanjudeji Why wouldn't they? Nobody wants to support illegality

Good one by the SC

temitayoojotayo Trust me, this won’t end well. The attack on the CJN is an affront on the judiciary. And even people who were hitherto neutral would be tempted to sympathize with the CJN. He may have done wrong, but you don’t use a wrong tactics to fight him.

akaebube e don happen

NkemdiMary Nice 1.... Justice Tanko must be dismiss from service

Such unholy alacrity, constitutional rape, ballistic attack on democratic separation of powers....etc... Our constitution has been shunted.. Rubbish and senseless leadership upholding impunity without shame. Anyway, thanks to SC justices.. for upholding TRL. We wait n see d end.

akaebube Good development.

Is Justice Onnoghen a PDP member

akaebube They are all thieves together. Many of them are worried of how to answer CCT SUMMONS on their assets declaration fraud

Why not just resign their position?

akaebube Good one

Sadeeq022 Election Tribunal is suspect.

OfficialPDPNig We must applaud all the Justices of the Supreme Court who refused to show up for the inauguration of the election tribunal. Shame on those who chose to be sworn in by an illegitimate Actg CJN. Shame on Fashola, shame on Osinbajo.

gimbakakanda Same swearing in that I sew on channels TV?lol u guys are comedians

God bless our nation nigeria

realDonaldTrump UN UKinNigeria usa

akaebube Bold step taken well. The world is watching

Since buhari wants to be mad let of us run mad na.... Welcome to Nigeria... The latest Banana Republic.

applause ! please boycott other government functions in solidarity with the cjn .rule of law and and to preserve our democracy

Next few days will be very interesting in Nigeria history. You can't be forming saint hypocritically and be wayward at the same time.

OfficialPDPNig 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 This is the worst decision MBuhari has ever made... It will haunt him for the rest of his life.

OfficialPDPNig Beautiful step in a brilliant direction. So enjoying this. Phewwwww! Romantic2019😘😍💯🌴 BetterNigeria

...in solidarity ba?

Does it matter if they show up?. Thank God all went well

Say no to illegality

KingDouyeAlfred The only JSC that appeared, is loyal to GMB, he was only elevated in 2016.

🤙👏👏👏🙌

Makintamie Na them sabi.

Nigeria is now on the edge of a precipice.

Good, let the madness begin

They can as well all resign to accelerate the reformation of the judiciary. I assure you that they won’t be missed. Awon oni yeye People.

anarchy looming

So what happened? Who cares about him, everything went normal

Thanks to All true Justices and SANs in Nigeria from defending our democracy. God bless Federal Republic of Nigeria.

That's bad. You know why this is scary? If PMB can get away with this, who knows what he will do next? It's true Onnoghen was wrong and ought to have resigned, but taking laws into his hands passes a very negative message to the people and the world at large. I'm a Buharist.

zombies and idiots everywhere here.

All of you guys are darft

Those absent should be on the watchful eye of EFCC,they might equally be operating undeclared foreign accounts.

If they like they can resign,because there own is very near.

How I prayed the President had the powers to sack all of them. This country needs new breathe and fresh air. She has been strangled by evil men and women for too long.

Good one

When the CJN did that already? Lol. Jokers.
