In a swift reaction, a Former President of the Nigeria Bar association, Olisa Agbakoba said the CCT has gone too far by issuing a Bench warrant for the arrest of Justice Walter Onnogen.
He insisted the CCT should not have issued the warrant when its jurisdiction to try the case is still been challenged in Court.

Dr Agbakoba says the CCT should have waited for the outcome of NJC’s intervention, and the cases before the Court of Appeal and Federal High Court.
