Months after NJC recommendation, Buhari fails to appoint new Supreme Court judges

Four months after the National Judicial Council recommended the appointment of four new Supreme Court judges,The NJC made the recommendation in October 2019.The recommendations were sent to Mr Buhari who has the powers to appoint the judges with the backing of the Senate.

While Justice Rhodes-Vivour was born on March 22, 1951, on February 18, 1994, he was appointed to the Bench as a High Court Judge. He was elevated to the Bench of the Court of Appeal on April 25, 2005. Next in line is Justice Mary Odili, who will reach retirement age on May 13, 2022. She was born on May 13, 1952 at AmudiObizi, Ezinihitte – Mbaise L.G.A. of Imo State.Justice Mohammad was born on October 27, 1953, in Chanchaga local government area in Minna, Niger State. After his primary and secondary education, he proceeded to Abdullahi Bayero college Kano 1972-1973 for the pre-degree certificate.

She served as a Senior State Counsel in the Office of the Chief Counsel to the then President, Shehu Shagari, after which, she was appointed Lecturer by the Nigerian Law School, Lagos. She was the Presiding Justice, Court of Appeal Kaduna Division, for four years before her elevation to the Supreme Court on January 8, 2019.

Justice Ariwoola was born on August 22, 1958. He was a Justice of the Court of Appeal between 2005 and 2011 after having been elevated from the State High Court of Oyo State.

I would bet one month's wage if the NJC nominated 3 judges from the North and 1 from the South, Buhari would have signed off the recommendations same week. That's just who he is.

I hope you guys are not upto something. We won't be surprised that he releases a list for appointment and you have the acting appeal court president as number 1 on the list. Voila, he would swiftly confirm his dream choice as her replacement.
