Abstract
This study was carried out on independence of the judiciary and public perception. The a case study of Justice Walter Onnoghen. On Friday 25th January 2019, President Muhammadu Buhari, purportedly acting on an order of the Codeof Conduct Tribunal suspended the Chief Justice of Nigeria, Justice Walter Onnoghen. The sudden suspension of the CJN raised concerns all over the country as well as on the international scene with many citing the timing and manner as unconstitutional and also as an attempt to secure victory in the February 2019 General Elections. Justice Onnoghen’s suspension is indeed an interesting one for many reasons such as the unavailability of such a process in the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria 1999 (as amended) (CFRN).It is important to note that this is a nonpartisan paper and the objective of this paper is simply to examine the law as it is, point out where the President went wrong and suggest a way forward should the country ever find itself in such a fix again. The author reiterates the sanctity of the 1999 CFRN (as amended)
