NJC appoints three Judges in Nasarawa State

Wednesday 11 October 2017

Three new High Courts judges were appointed by the National Judicial Council in Nasarawa State so as to help strengthen the state’s judiciary.

The Chief Judge of the state, Justice Suleiman Dikko, on Wednesday, gave the names of the new judges as Mustapher Ramat-Abdulmumuni, Hanatu Mohammed and Abdulahi Ozegya.

He said that the appointment of the judges was to fill the vacancy created by death and the establishment of new high courts.

“The appointment would go a long way towards decongesting the number of cases in the other high court thereby leading to the quick dispensation of justice,” he said.

He said that the appointment was done after the candidates had been screened by the state’s Judicial Service Commission.

The CJ said that the appointments were based on merit and added that the exercise followed due process.

Dikko commended the State Government for providing accommodation and vehicles for the new judges.

He promised that more courtrooms in the state would be renovated and enabling environment created for the judicial officers to do their work effectively.
