Lagos – The Federal Government has finally accepted the notice of retirement of suspended Chief Justice of Nigeria, Justice Walter Onnoghen, with a decision to pay him his full entitlement.

This is coming against the backdrop of recent overtures being made by the presidency to the retired jurist, urging him to be of assistance to the All Progressives Congress-led government in resolving the election cases the party has in various courts in the land.

Onnoghen, on April 4, sent his notice of retirement to President Muhammadu Buhari following his indictment by the National Judicial Council (NJC) around the same period.


A credible judiciary source who pleaded anonymity told Daily Independent that when the presidency sought the presence of the retired jurist in Abuja, especially after APC lost Zamfara wholesale to the PDP, family members told officials that Onnoghen was in the village in Cross River State since he has no house in Abuja.

The source said presidency officials held two meetings with the family members of the retired jurist where they sought his help over these cases and also agreed to accept his notice of retirement and also give him all his entitlements.

It would be recalled that the NJC had recommended Onnoghen’s compulsory retirement based on a petition brought by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) against him “alleging financial impropriety and infidelity to the constitution”.

There is jail time for him in case he think he is entitled to an opinion like you. No time for rubbish abeg.

OAUTemitayo:

Boss, Ononeghen caused his downfall
And secondly, this report is likely false.
If FG need help on Zamfara, they will go to Tanko not Ononeghen.
And Ononeghen brought all these on himself, allowing Wike to use him.
I know you to be meticulous in analysis and discourse.
I am sure this report na error 404

he will get his full benefits worth billions from Mr integrity while one zombie on niaraland will continue shouting kworupt kworupt as reward

Did anybody see this?
family members told officials that Onnoghen was in the village in Cross River State since he has no house in Abuja.

Useless fake news, no source. Everybody is insane in this country. A blogger will sit at home and compose news quoting anonymous from beginning to the end and lazy citizens will start masturbating over it.

What sort of news is this?

Why would FG seek the help of someone who was sent packing since January in an on-going case? He doesn’t sit to hear the case, he didn’t constitute the panel, of what relevance is he, to the case?
