A petition was filed to the National Judicial Council by Mrs Emily Richard - Obire accusing an Osun State Judge, Justice Olamide Oloyede of snatching her husband & making him abandon his children, family. (Petition papers above which I found on Twitter).
According to Punch, The National Judicial Council issued a query over the allegation against Justice Olamide Oloyede. Worthy of mention is that this particular Judge once initiated a petition calling for the removal of the Osun state Governor, Mr. Rauf Aregbesola.
The Chief Justice of Nigeria and Chairman of the NJC, Justice Mahmud Mohammed, who personally signed the query, directed Justice Oloyede to respond to the query within 14 days of receiving it. A copy of the query was issued to the judge through the Osun State Chief Judge, Justice O.A Ojo.
It was entitled, ‘Re: Petition against Justice Olamide Oloyede of the Osun State Judiciary’ and reads thus, “I forward herewith a petition dated July 13, 2015 against you by one Mrs. Emily Richard-Obire on the above subject matter. The petition speaks for itself. “I shall be glad to have your comments within 14 days from the date of your receipt of this letter.
However, according to Punch, it is not yet ascertained if the accused - Justice Oloyede has responded to the query.
