In the midst of the authenticity of Tinubu’s alleged meeting with Justice Olukayode Ariwoola, fresh reports have emerged on the issue.
CJN Ariwoola has reportedly returned to Nigeria.
However, the source say he went to London, the United Kingdom to seek medical attention.
The CJN’s return was revealed by a Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN) and an ally of the Supreme Court head, Ahmed Raji.
He made it known in a statement on Thursday in Ibadan, Oyo State capital.
Raji says Justice Ariwoola travelled to London on Saturday for his routine medical check-up and returned to the country on Thursday morning.
“It is in the news since Tuesday evening that Tinubu was traveling to Europe for medical reasons as well as for lesser hajj.
“Further reports indicated that he is in France to meet with his medical doctor.
“Why would somebody now link that to the CJN that has left Nigeria for the UK since Saturday to observe his own medical session and just came back today (Thursday) as a meeting?”
Raji describes the reports that the CJN was sighted in London in a wheelchair, as false and aimed at tarnishing the image of the apex court and the chief justice.
Raji, therefore, urged Nigerians to resist the attempts by politicians to paint the judiciary as bad so as to achieve their selfish interests.
“Our politicians need to allow due process to take control, election matters are in the law courts, but that does not mean that the law Lords will not live their normal lives as human beings.
“Tinubu is in France and the CJN was in London, where is the contact?“
