Justice Mohammed Who is the Chairman of the National Judicial Council, NJC, issued the summons to the Chief Judges in Abuja on Monday, August 30.<\/p>\n

The summoned Chief Judges are those of Rivers, Kebbi, Cross River, Anambra, Jigawa and Imo states.<\/p>\n

DAILY POST noted that the CJN complained bitterly about the huge embarrassment caused the Nigeria\u2019s judiciary by the actions of those who issued conflicting orders upon ex-parte applications by some political parties.<\/p>\n
