NJC recommends Justice Kudirat Kekere-Ekun as CJN
The National Judicial Council (NJC) at its 106th meeting has recommended Justice Kudirat Kekere-Ekun to President Bola Tinubu for appointment as the Chief Justice of Nigeria (CJN).
A statement by Soji Oye, NJC’s Director of Information on Thursday in Abuja said the recommendation was imperative as the current CJN Justice Olukayode Ariwoola will formally bow out of office on August 22.
He said the council also recommended 27 candidates for appointment as Judges of state courts and a candidate for appointment as Kadi of the Sharia Court of the FCT, Abuja to their various State Governors.
