Justice Walter Onnoghen, suspended Chief Justice of Nigeria (CJN) has denied the news spreading like wild harmattan fire that has resigned from office.

His media aide, Awassam Bassey, said;

“The CJN’s rumoured resignation is 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.”

For those who don’t know Justice Walter Onnoghen was suspended by President Muhammadu Buhari for not declaring all his assets and Justice Tanko Mohammed has been appointed on acting capacity by the president.
