ABUJA (Sundiata Post) – President Bola Tinubu is expected to return to the nation’s capital this evening from France.
Upon his return, Tinubu will preside over the inauguration of Justice Kudirat Kekere-Ekun as the new Chief Justice of Nigeria on Friday.
Sources within the Presidency informed WESTERN POST that Tinubu, who travelled to France on Monday, will make a swift return to Abuja, viewing the swearing-in of Justice Kekere-Ekun not only as a constitutional obligation but also as a historic responsibility.
It was previously reported that the National Judicial Council had recommended Justice Kekere-Ekun to succeed Justice Olukayode Ariwoola, who is set to officially retire on Thursday, August 22.
