The retirement notice served on the apex court's management by Justice Dattijo will lapse on the date when a valedictory court session will be held in his honour.

A statement on Sunday in Abuja by the Court's Director of Press and Information, Dr Festus Akande indicated that the valedictory session will hold at the Main Courtroom of the Supreme Court by 10:00 am. According to the statement, the Special Court Session is to be presided over by the Chief Justice of Nigeria, Justice Olukayode Ariwoola, who will customarily pay tribute to Justice Dattijo alongside other major stakeholders in the nation’s justice sector.
