The All Progressives Congress has called on the National Judicial Council to rescind the suspension of the Rivers State Chief Judge, Justice Peter Agumagu, in the interest of justice.
The APC faulted the suspension of Agumagu as a judge, challenging the NJC of not following due process in suspending the state chief judge.
Agumagu was sworn in by the State Governor, Mr. Rotimi Amaechi, after a Federal High Court had ruled that the governor could appoint a state chief judge from Customary Appeal Court.
But a statement by the state chapter of the party on Tuesday maintained that Agumagu was not given fair hearing by the NJC before being suspended, adding that the council has no power to suspend a sitting state chief judge.
The statement signed by the Senior Special Assistant to the Interim State Chairman of APC, Chief Chukwuemeka Eze, indicated that the NJC should have appealed the High Court ruling that ensured Agumagus appointment as the state chief judge.
The All Progressives Congress, Rivers State Chapter, is convinced that the NJC erred seriously on this issue as due process was not followed in Justice Agumagus suspension and we wish to request the revered NJC to reverse this decision in the interest of justice.
There is a judgment of a competent court headed by Honourable Justice Lambo Akanbi of the Federal High Court, Port Harcourt, upon which the State House of Assembly and Governor Chibuike Amaechi acted in clearing and swearing in Justice Agumagu as the Chief Judge of Rivers State.
In the said judgment, NJC was a party. NJC has a right of appeal but under part 1, section 21 (d) of the third schedule of the 1999 Constitution, the NJC has no power to suspend Justice Agumagu.
To make matters worse, NJC breached Agumagus fundamental right to fair hearing by suspending him without affording him the opportunity to be heard. The NJC has certainly gone beyond its powers, the statement read.
The APC urged the NJC not to dabble into politics and desist from giving leverage to those desperate to remove the state governor.

BELGRADE -- Leader of Progressives (SNS) Aleksandar Vui will start official talks on forming a new government with potential partners early next week, writes a daily.
According to Veernje Novosti, the head of the Progressives should invite all parties that had won seats in parliament in the March 16 ballot, "and are willing to talk."
Vui should present the leaders of these parties with an economic recovery program, "the writing of which has been well under way" - and that will be a part of his inaugural speech as prime minister, the paper said.
It noted that as early as next week Vui could make a decision on whom to invite to join his government, so that the names of new ministers could be announced before Easter, April 20.
One of SNS vice presidents, Bratislav Gai, told the daily that the party "has not talked with anyone so far," and that it will be known who they will negotiate with about a new government "after the completion of the new round of dialogue in Brussels."
BRUSSELS -- The Serbian representatives voiced the "principled position" that Serbia does not want to take any steps that would erode its ties with the Russian Federation.
BELGRADE -- Aleksandar Vui says "the best possible result for Serbia and Serbs in terms of judiciary in Kosovo and Metohija was achieved, under difficult conditions."
BELGRADE -- The session of the Serb Progressive Party (SNS) concerning the constitution of the future government will be held on Saturday, April 5, Tanjug said it learned.
BRUSSELS -- A spokesperson for EU's Catherine Ashton says Serbia's stance towards the crisis in Ukraine will not be the topic of today's Belgrade-Pritina dialogue.
