Dogara comes for Buhari, Called President A Dictator

The Speaker of Nigeria’s House of Representatives, Yakubu Dogara, has accused President Muhammadu Buhari of dictatorship in removing the Chief Justice of Nigeria (CJN), Walter Onnoghen.

In a statement sent to PREMIUM TIMES, Mr Dogara said with the suspension, the world has been served with notice that Nigeria is now a full-blown dictatorship.

Mr Onnoghen was suspended on Friday by Mr Buhari who immediately swore-in the next most senior judge at the Supreme Court, Tanko Mohammed, as the acting CJN.

While it is stated in the Nigerian constitution that a sitting CJN can only be removed from office by the president after at least two-thirds majority members of the Senate support such a move, Mr Buhari drew his power from an order of the Code of Conduct Tribunal.

The suspension has been condemned by many Nigerians including Senate President Bukola Saraki and the Nigerian Bar Association. Foreign governments such as the United States and the European Union have also expressed concerns with the suspension.

In his statement, Mr Dogara said the decision by Mr Buhari did not come as shock.

“This did not come as a rude shock except to those that have been blind to the gradual but progressive erosion of democratic values in the polity as President Buhari’s Government has never hidden its disdain for the rule of law,” Mr Dogara said.
