The CJN directed the two heads of courts to appear at his chambers at the Supreme Court complex, on Thursday.
Perturbed by the spate of conflicting orders trailing the ongoing tussle over the stool of the Emir of Kano, the Chief Justice of Nigeria, CJN, Justice Olukayode Ariwoola, on Wednesday, summoned the Chief Judge of the Federal High Court, Justice John Tsoho, and the Chief Judge of Kano State High Court, Justice Dije Aboki, for an emergency meeting.
“There is strong indication that the National Judicial Council will conduct an emergency meeting next week where the subject judges are likely to be invited and subjected to serious investigations,” the statement added. The NBA, which is the umbrella body of lawyers in the country, in a statement it made available to newsmen on Wednesday, decried the conducts of counsel and the Courts in the handling of the proceedings, which culminated in the orders issued by the Federal High Court, the Kano State High Court, and again, the Federal High Court, in circus, have brought utter disgrace and shame to the legal profession.
