President Muhammadu Buhari had suspended Onnoghen as the CJN, and sworn in Tanko Mohammed as his replacement, pending the determination of the false asset declaration case against the ex-CJN at the Code of Conduct Tribunal (CCT).
Buhari noted that he acted based an order of the CCT.
The media aide to Onnoghen, Awusam Bassey, confirmed the ejection of staff and sealing off of the office.
