The South South Governor’s Forum
has scheduled an emergency meeting for Sunday to discuss the developing move to
remove Walter Onnoghen as the chief justice of Nigeria (CJN).
In a statement signed by Fidelis
Soriwei, the special adviser, media relations to the governor of Bayelsa State,
the forum revealed that the security òf the Niger Delta, during and after the
election; the issue of derivation; and recent development involving the chief
justice of the federation would feature for deliberation at the meeting.
Expressing his opinion at the
development in the Supreme Court, Dickson said while he was yet to know the
full details surrounding the developments at the Supreme Court concerning the
CJN, it is a grave and dangerous escalation, coming a few weeks to the general
elections.
He said that the South South
Governors would address a press conference after the meeting to convey the
position of the zone to the Nigerian public.
Dickson said that all efforts
must be on deck to prevent the subversion and desecration òf the ethos of
democracy in Nigeria as nation moves nearer to the election.
We had earlier reported that
the move to remove the CJN was launched by ARDI, a group backed by a former
south south governor.
