Oshiomhole To Justice Onnoghen: Spare Judiciary The Trauma And Resign

Adams Oshiomhole

The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Adams Oshiomhole has asked the embattled Chief Judge of Nigeria, Justice Walter Onnoghen to spare the nation’s judiciary of trauma by resigning.

In an interview with Channels Television’s Seun Okinbaloyo today, Tuesday, Oshiomhole said: “You can’t fight corruption selectively; Onnoghen should spare the Judiciary the trauma, and resign.”

The APC boss said that it is morally improper for Chief Justice of Nigeria to maintain multiple foreign accounts, adding: “Nigeria’s democracy cannot be stable if the rules are only made for the poor”.

Reacting to a statement by the former Nigerian President, Olusegun Obasanjo to the effect that President Muhammadu Buhari had returned the nation to the era of dictatorial rule of late General Sani Abacha, Oshiomhole insisted that Obasanjo;s era as President was worse than that of Abacha.

Oshiomhole said: “Obasanjo can’t look me in the eyes and say those things; he is a worse dictator. He was worse than Abacha.”

He said that Obasanjo ruled for eight years and could not fix Nigeria, and “we are saying Buhari should fix Nigeria in three and half years.”
