Gov. Adeleke Dissolved US To Pave Way For Removal Of Osun CJ – Commission
Gov. Adeleke Dissolved US To Pave Way For Removal Of Osun CJ – Commission
There seems no respite in place for the embattled administration of the Osun state governor, Senator Ademola Adeleke, as members of the Osun state Judicial Service Commission dissolved illegally this October have finalised plans to fight their abrupt sack within the ambit of law.
In a statement signed by Hon. Rotimi Makinde and Barrister Tomi Olagbaju on behalf of the entire members of the dissolved judicial commission, the disenchanted group explained that the dissolution of the statutory commissions before the end of their five years’ tenure was a product of executive recklessness which should not be enlivened for the sake of common sense, decency, orderliness and our fledging democracy.
The group alleged that their commission’s dissolution was politically motivated and had connection with sinister motive against the Chief Judge of the state, Honourable Justice Adepele Ojo.
According to them, “when the state government could not find the CJ pliable to execute their devious plan and consequently could not find anything incriminating against the CJ, since all approvals from her office to our commission went through due process of law, the Governor believed the best strategy to adopt is to disband us, and bring in ductile characters, even when our tenure still remains four years.”
They added that, “it is strange that a government which has become a butt of jokes and comedy in the comity of states over unending financial infraction, recently being its inability to justify the over N130b revenue accrued to it in the last one year and failure to account for N10b extra budget for food and entertainment inserted in the supplementary budget of the state governor, is the one devoting its energy to sack a Chief Judge over ridiculous and puerile N5m graft claim. Where does the Government derive powers to investigate and punish a Chief Judge? Such powers reside in the National Judicial Council.”
The group equally stated that Governor Adeleke had all along, since his inauguration, stopped the salaries of all the statutory boards in such a reckless manner just as he used the same to lock out some traditional rulers and deprived them of their priveleges.
The group finally appealed to the National Judicial Council to pay adequate attention to the management of judiciary in Osun as they equally appealed to Nigerians and security operatives to hold Governor Adeleke responsible should anything untoward happens to them or any member of their family.
They vouched to fight on until they get justice.
“Our case will be the terminus point to the impunity and illegality being perpetrated by the current government. They must have got away with others, but in our case, we will fight and get the deserving justice,”. The statement concluded.
It would be recalled that chairmen and members of the statutory commissions, namely Osun State Judicial Service Commission; Osun State Independent Electoral Commission (OSSIEC); Osun State Civil Service Commission and Osun State House of Assembly Service Commission, dissolved October 30, 2023, had challenged their dissolution at the National Industrial Court of Nigeria (NICN), Ibadan, Oyo State, urging among other reliefs, the court to nullify the dissolution and direct the Osun State Government to stop giving further effect to the purported constitution of the new commissions.
The claimants also prayed the court to ask the state government to pay damages in the sum of N500m

Buratai Highlights Leadership, Community Support In Defeating Insurgency As Shettima, Defence Chiefs Rally Support For Counterterrorism Documentation At Book Launch
Buratai Highlights Leadership, Community Support In Defeating Insurgency As Shettima, Defence Chiefs Rally Support For Counterterrorism Documentation At Book Launch
Prominent Nigerians including Vice President Kashim Shettima, Defence Minister Christopher Musa, senior military officers, and political leaders on Thursday underscored the importance of documentation, collective national responsibility, and sustained military professionalism in the fight against terrorism during the unveiling of a new book titled “Counterterrorism and Counterinsurgency Operations in North East Nigeria (Volumes 1 & 2)” authored by retired Major-General Ibrahim Yusuf.
Representing Vice President Kashim Shettima, the Special Adviser on General Duties, Dr. Aliyu Modibbo, described the publication as a timely and strategic contribution to Nigeria’s national security discourse.
According to him, Nigeria’s experience with terrorism and insurgency in the North-East reflects not a nation defeated by insecurity, but the resilience and courage of citizens and security forces defending the country’s shared destiny.
He noted that the conflict in the North-East remained a deep human tragedy affecting communities with rich historical and cultural heritage, stressing that terrorism requires sustained vigilance, intelligence gathering, diplomacy, technology, and strong civil-military cooperation.
The Vice President further commended the author for documenting operational experiences and strategic lessons from the theatre of operations, saying such insights would prove invaluable to policymakers, scholars, and future military leaders.
He also reaffirmed the commitment of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s administration to strengthening the operational readiness, welfare, and dignity of members of the Armed Forces.
In his goodwill message, the Minister of Defence, Christopher Musa, praised the author as a respected mentor whose professionalism and leadership continued to inspire younger officers even after retirement.
“The lion may be retired, but he is certainly not tired,” he remarked.
Musa described the insurgency in the North-East as one of Nigeria’s most complex security challenges, noting that the asymmetric nature of the conflict means it cannot be won by military force alone.
According to him, victory against terrorism depends on collective national responsibility involving the Armed Forces, civil authorities, and citizens working together to deny insurgents support and legitimacy.
He also urged serving military officers to study the publication carefully, noting that it contains valuable operational lessons from years of counterinsurgency operations.
The Chief of Defence Staff, Olufemi Oluyede, described the two-volume publication as a major intellectual contribution bridging theory and practice in counterterrorism and counterinsurgency operations.
Oluyede commended the author for preserving decades of operational knowledge gained from commanding the 21 Brigade, 7 Division, and the Multinational Joint Task Force.
He stressed that modern security threats demand continuous learning, adaptation, and proper documentation of operational experiences, adding that the publication would serve as a useful resource for military practitioners, researchers, and policymakers.
Former Chief of Army Staff, Lt. Gen. Tukur Buratai, also applauded the author for documenting operational experiences from the counterinsurgency campaign in the North-East.
Buratai stated that operational success in counterinsurgency warfare depends largely on the quality of commanders in the field and the ability of military leaders to adapt to complex realities.
He recalled the significance of operations such as Deep Punch I and Deep Punch II, as well as the critical role played by the Nigerian Air Force in degrading terrorist capabilities between 2015 and 2017.
According to him, resilient leadership and community support remain crucial elements in defeating insurgency.
Earlier, retired Major-General Ibrahim Yusuf said the publication represented the fulfilment of an eight-year intellectual ambition aimed at contributing to military scholarship and national security discourse.
He explained that the book was inspired by a desire to provide younger military officers and policymakers with first-hand insights into the successes and challenges of counterterrorism operations in Nigeria.
The retired general added that the publication drew from over a decade of operational experience in the North-East and the Lake Chad Basin while deliberately avoiding sensitive information capable of compromising ongoing operations.
He also urged retired military officers to document their operational experiences for future generations, stressing that such efforts are essential for institutional memory and national development.
Reviewing the publication, renowned scholar Eghosa Osaghae described the work as a landmark contribution to military scholarship.
Osaghae noted that the two volumes combine academic depth with practical operational experience, offering insights into intelligence-led operations, joint force coordination, psychological warfare, and post-conflict management.
He added that the publication effectively situates Nigeria’s counterinsurgency experience within the broader realities of modern asymmetric warfare and evolving global security threats.
The event attracted senior serving and retired military officers, heads of security agencies, members of the diplomatic corps, academics, and policymakers from across the country.
