CJN postpones inauguration of 18 Appeal Court judges
The inauguration of the 18 newly appointed Justices of the Court of Appeal earlier scheduled to hold on Thursday has been postponed indefinitely.
The postponement of the event by the Chief Justice of Nigeria, Tanko Muhammad, was made known late Wednesday due to the ongoing strike by judiciary workers which has kept all Nigerian courts shut down since April 6th.
The striking judiciary workers, under the support of the Judiciary Staff Union of Nigeria, are demanding the implementation of the constitutional provision and court judgments, granting financial autonomy to the judiciary.
