The National Judicial Council (NJC) has put forward a slate of 28 candidates for judicial appointments across six states, with 24 of those nominees earmarked for positions in various State High Courts.
The recommendations cover a range of judicial posts, reflecting the council’s ongoing effort to fill vacancies and strengthen the judiciary at the state level.
As the body tasked with vetting and recommending judicial appointments in Nigeria, the NJC plays a pivotal role in ensuring that qualified individuals are considered for positions within the country’s courts.
Once the list is approved, the nominees will be forwarded to the President for final appointment, following the standard procedure for judicial appointments in Nigeria.
The full list was reported by Punch Nigeria, providing a comprehensive overview of the candidates selected by the council.
