The emergency meeting of the National Judicial Council (NJC) scheduled to discuss the arrest of some judges last week ended on Tuesday without members reaching any resolution.

The meeting, which held at the three Arm Zone of the Presidential Villa in Abuja, will continue on Wednesday.

Journalists, who had gathered early enough to cover the meeting were barred from covering the event, but an insider confirmed that the meeting had begun and that the meeting was exclusively for members of the NJC.

This meeting is coming on the heels of the arrest of some judges by the Department of State Services over allegations of misconduct and corruption.

The arrest has thrown up a lot of debate across sessions of the society.

Meanwhile, the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) has called the harassment and arrest of the judges absurd and unacceptable, but the Federal Government insisted that the ongoing trial was for judges alleged to be corrupt and not the entire judiciary as argued by the NBA
