Osun judge queried over petition against Aregbesola

The dust raised by the petition written by a serving judge in the Osun State judiciary, Justice Olamide Falahanmi Oloyede, is yet to settle, as the National Judicial Council, NJC, has queried her over the petition she sent to the state House of Assembly, imploring the assembly to commence impeachment proceedings against the state governor, Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola and his deputy, Mrs Titilayo Laoye-Tomori for allegedly mismanaging the state’s resources.

The query, personally signed by the Chief Justice of Nigeria, Justice Mahmud Mohammed, is expected to be answered within 14 days by the judge.

It will be recalled that the House of Assembly had set up a committee to look into the petition and subsequently dismissed the petition for lack of evidence against the respondent.

This prompted the Osun Civil Societies Coalition to petition the NJC, alleging that the judge over-stepped her limit and accusing her of failing to conduct herself in a manner that would preserve the dignity of her office as an impartial and independent organ, thereby exposing the judiciary to ridicule and disrepute.
