HISTORIC NOMINATION: TINUBU URGES SENATE CONFIRMATION OF 11 SUPREME COURT JUSTICES. (PHOTO).



Historic Nomination: Tinubu urges Senate confirmation of 11 Supreme Court justices


In a historic move, President Bola Tinubu has formally written to the Senate, seeking the screening and subsequent confirmation of 11 nominees for appointment as Justices of the Supreme Court. The request, aimed at filling vacant positions in the highest court, was presented in a letter read by the Senate President, Godswill Akpabio, during Wednesday’s plenary session.


The National Judicial Council (NJC) had previously recommended the 11 nominees to address the current voids in the Supreme Court, resulting from the unfortunate demise and resignations of some justices. The Supreme Court, which currently comprises 10 justices, falls short of the statutory requirement of 21 judges.


The nominees put forward by President Tinubu include individuals with diverse legal expertise and regional representation. Notable among them are Justice Haruna Tsammani (Northeast), who chaired the Presidential Election Petition Court; Justice Moore Adumein (South-South); Justice Jummai Sankey (North-central); Justice Chidiebere Uwa (South-east); and Justice Chioma Nwosu-Iheme (South-east).


The remaining nominees are Justice Obande Ogbuinya (South-east), Justice Stephen Adah (North-central), Justice Habeeb Abiru (South-west), Justice Jamilu Tukur (Northwest), Justice Abubakar Umar (Northwest), and Justice Mohammed Idris (North-central).


If confirmed, this historic nomination will mark the first time in Nigeria’s history that the Supreme Court will achieve its full complement of 21 justices, as mandated by law.


The Senate is poised to engage in a thorough screening process to assess the qualifications and suitability of each nominee before making a final decision on their confirmation.


As the nomination process unfolds, it holds significant implications for the judiciary’s effectiveness and the overall administration of justice in Nigeria.
