The Nigerian Supreme Court currently has ten justices on its bench, according to Chief Justice Olukayode Ariwoola’s statement on Friday.
He claims that the Supreme Court has the fewest justices in history, with just 10 justices sitting on the bench.
In the concluding court session for Justice Musa Dattijo, who reached the mandatory retirement age of seventy years, the Chief Justice delivered a speech.
But the CJN gave everyone the reassurance that all efforts are being made to quickly promote a sizable number of Justices to the Court’s bench.
The CJN praised Dattijo, calling him an example of excellence that goes beyond the legal profession.
