The above represents the reason why a lot of persons including very senior Judicial officers have canvassed that the Constitution be amended to bring the CCT and its Judges under the control of the NJC which is the body that handles the appointment, promotion and discipline of all Judges\/ Justices in Nigeria to guarantee their impartiality and independence\u201d, the lawyer opined.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Also speaking, another lawyer, Seprebofa Oyeghe said the NJC, was established under the provisions of Section 153 of the 1999 Constitution.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u201d Its functions, among others is to appoint, promote and discipline Judicial Officers.By the provision of Paragraph 21 of Part One of the Third Schedule to the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, as amended.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">He further submitted that the NJC shall have the power to recommend to the President and Governors from the appointment and removal of judicial officers listed and to exercise disciplinary control over such officers.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Oyeghe in addition said that the Chairman and members of the CCT were not listed as those that NJC can exercise disciplinary control though the Fifth Schedule, Part 1, Item 15 of the Constitution provides thus:\u201dthe Chairman and members of the CCT shall be appointed by the President in accordance with the recommendation of the NJC\u201d.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u201cHence the application by the CJN asking the NASS to amend the Constitution to confer powers of control over the CCT on the NJC is proper otherwise the actions, rulings and decisions of the CCT may continue to expose the Judiciary to shame and ridicule.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u201d For instance, the exparte order made by the CCT against the former CJN, Justice Walter Onnoghen directing that the CJN to step aside as the CJN and the Chairman of the NJC\u201d, Oyeghe added.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u201dAll judicial organs should and must be under the judiciary, which interprets laws, but does not enforce them.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u201dOnce its status as a judicial body is a creation of statute under the Constitution, its very nature as a judicial organ cannot by any stretch of imagination be a tool in the hands of the executive.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u201dMay be we should change the name of the tribunal to something,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Some Abuja-based lawyers have expressed divergent views on the Chief Justice of Nigeria (CJN), Justice Tanko Muhammad\u2019s proposal to proposal to the National Assembly to confer power of control of the Code of Conduct Tribunal ( CCT), to the National Judicial Council.
