Former Chief Justice Walter Onnoghen of Nigeria: ethical goblin
The Nigerian Law Society presented Walter Nkannu Samuel Onnoghen with a law license in 1978 after he graduated from the Nigerian School of Law.
The Code of Conduct Tribunal (CCT) found Justice Onnoghen guilty of the following misconduct.
As a direct consequence of his misconduct, President of Nigeria, Muihammadu Buhari suspended Justice Onnoghen from his position as Chief Justice in late January 2019.
All that remains now is to see what punishment is meted out to Justice Onnoghen regarding the large sums of funds he accumulated and deposited in various accounts in several countries while concealing said funds in his financial disclosure filings.
