The Code of Conduct Tribunal heard on Monday how investigators from the Code of Conduct Bureau investigated the petition against suspended Chief Justice of Nigeria Justice Walter Onnoghen and obtained statement from him in relation to allegation of non-assets disclosure brought against him by the CCB.
He said: “What happened next was that, we explained the petition to the defendant and handed over to him a copy of the petition. “The team then informed him that the witness might be a lawyer or a reputable person. The defendant then called his secretary, Jane Etu, to witness the statement.“Intermittently, he went into his inner chambers to seek audience with his visitors. After some time, he would come back and continued until he ended the statement.
The witness said he could not confirm the statement because his team was not involved in the filing of the charge. The witness said the first form earlier admitted as Exhibit 2, covered the period June 8, 2005 when Onnoghen was appointed a Justice of the Supreme Court till November 22, 2014.
