Walter Onnoghen, the suspended Chief Justice of Nigeria has denied reports by various news platform he tendered a resignation letter.
Onnoghen, who after he got suspended has been swiftly replaced with the next most senior Justice of the Supreme Court, Justice Tanko Mohammed, as Acting CJN by President Buhari, debunked the rumour in a statement on Monday.
The statement was signed by his media aide, Awassam Bassey, who described the CJN’s rumoured resignation as “fake news circulated by mischief makers.”
“Mischief makers are still circulating this fake news. Once again, no truth in it whatsoever. The Hon CJN, Hon Justice Walter Samuel Nkanu Onnoghen, GCON, has not resigned,” Bassey said.
The rumour came less than 24 hours to the emergency meeting summoned by the National Judicial Council to deliberate on Onnoghen’s suspension and Muhammad’s emergence as the Acting CJN.
