Delay in Inaugurating Supreme Court Justices Raises Concerns

The inauguration of 11 newly appointed justices of the Supreme Court, confirmed by the Senate in December last year, has reportedly been delayed due to accommodation and logistical challenges, shedding light on concerns over the reduced capacity of Nigeria’s apex court.

Despite the constitutional requirement for the Supreme Court to have 21 justices, it has been operating with just 10, significantly impacting its efficiency in addressing appeals from the previous year’s general elections.
