office of the Chief Justice of Nigeria, Justice Walter Onnoghen, who
was suspended by President Buhari, last week,

possibility of Onnoghen accessing the office as policemen were said to
have sealed the office and ejected all administrative staff in the axis
of the CJN office as early as 7am on Monday.
A source said, “the police have sealed the office of the CJN.
Officers and men of the Force went to the administrative staff offices
at about 7am and ordered clerical and other staff who were already at
their desks to leave after which they locked up everywhere.”
