The Nigerian Wailers has called on the Nigerian Bar Association, National Assembly and other pro democracy groups to activate actions that will stop President Muhammadu Buhari from furthering his quest to impose totalitarian regime on Nigerians.
On Friday, Buhari, in clear violation of the Nigerian constitution suspended the chief justice of Nigeria, Walter Onnoghen, and swore in Ibrahim Tanko Muhammed siting a dubious court order by the Code of Conduct Tribunal.
In a statement published on its Twitter handle, @NGRWailers, the pro-democracy on Friday, January 26, 2019, called on all Nigerians to reject Buhari’s dictatorial move and save Nigeria’s democracy.
“The CJN recognised by ALL Nigerians must reject this aberration, NJC, NBA and ALL Nigerians must stand against this unlawful act of UnPresident Buhari,” the group said.
“Finally, the @NGRSenate must urgently reconvene and begin IMPEACHMENT process against Buhari. We cannot allow him AGAIN.
Honorable Justice Walter Onnoghen, was abruptly suspended by President Buhari while Justice Tanko Muhammed was hurriedly sworn in by President Buhari just a day to swearing in of election petition tribunals which is expected to handle disagreements that may arise from the conduct of the 2019 elections which begin in three weeks.
The group is suggesting that the Senate should urgently reconvene to begin the impeachment process of President Muhammadu Buhari because of his disregard for rule of law, and gradually sliding the black most populous nation into fascist state.
Many prominent Nigerians have roundly rejected President Buhari’s latest constitutional breach.
Top leaders in the country including the former Vice President and PDP’s presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, Senate President Bukola Saraki, Chief Femi Fani Kayode, Senator Shehu Sani, Southern and Middle Belt Elders Group, and the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA), have all openly condemn Buhari’s unlawful actions.
