Group to FG: Remove CCT chairman now

The New Nigeria Group, a Civil Society Organisation has called on the federal government to sack the Code of Conduct Tribunal (CCT) chairman, Danladi Yakubu Umar over allegations of corruption levelled against him while maintaining that a ”wounded personality cannot be fair in rulings.”

Also, the group has alleged that senior colleagues of the CCT chairman, such as a former Chief Justice of Nigeria, Mariam Aloma Mukhtar, and former minister of Justice, Mohammed Bello Adoke had demanded the removal of the chairman citing several allegations against him and the huge embarrassment he had caused the profession which had made the tribunal unable to sit.
