Opposition political parties under the aegis of the Coalition of United Political Parties, CUPP on Sunday said it had obtained credible intelligence that a combined team of security agents has been approved by the Presidency to cordon off the venue of the National Judicial Council meeting scheduled for Monday as members proceed to consider the answers to the queries issued to the Chief Justice of Nigeria, Justice Walter Onnoghen and Justice Tanko Mohammed.
According to a statement issued by the coalition’s spokesman, Imo Ugochinyere, the operatives have been handed instructions that they should do whatever is necessary to ensure the NJC indicts the CJN and set Justice Mohammed free from all allegations.
The coalition’s spokesman, Ugochinyere, said an Assistant Inspector-General of Police and another senior officer from the Department of State Services are to coordinate the operation.
Ugochinyere said, “The security agents are to claim that there is intelligence of a possible breach of security which would warrant the increased security.“The Chairman of EFCC is simply framing the CJN in a bid to help shield the Presidency from the obvious unconstitutional act of the removal of the CJN.”
