A group, the Advocacy for Integrity and Economic Development, has called on all Nigerians, especially the Body of Benchers and ‘all patriots who hold dear the continuous existence of Nigeria’ to protest the suspension of the Chief Judge of Nigeria, Mr. Walter Nkanu Onnoghen, describing the action as grand illegality and desecration of the garment of democracy.
In a statement in Abuja on Friday in reaction to the suspension of the embattled CJN and signed by its Director of Publicity, Comrade O’Seun John, AIED stated that President Muhammadu Buhari has finally unveiled fully his true personality after years of dilly dally and pretence as a reformed dictator, drawing a close resemblance between him and Adolf Hitler.
Consider the full statement:
“The President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, today, unveiled fully his true personality after years of dilly dally and pretence as a reformed dictator. Muhammadu Buhari, whose action is likened to that of Adolf Hitler, has shown to the entire world that he is nothing but a despotic totalitarian who would not mind dragging every institution of the Nigerian State down to win reelection.
“Today, we have seen a man who gets blood rush in illegality, spits on the pages of our hallow constitution and kicks our sacred laws which forms our identity.
“The Nigerian Judiciary which is the only institution of state left with sanity is under siege. Our nation has been kicked off the cliff and going on a free fall, we are in trouble!
“The illegal suspension of Chief Justice of Nigeria is not only alien to every fibre of our laws but distasteful and an unforgivable violation of the core spirit and principle of separation of power.
“We hereby call on all members of the Nigerian Body of Benchers and patriots across the world to stand up against a new Adolf Hitler that has found home in Nigeria. We call on every world leader to stand up for the Nigerian people at these moment of tribulation and help end this reign of absurdity.”
