Chief Justice of Nigeria, Justice Olukayode Ariwoola, would on Monday, November 7 set in motion the legal fireworks for the 2023 election with the inauguration of over 300 members of the election petition tribunal.
The Spokesperson of the Supreme Court, Dr Festus Akande, said this in the invitation sent to Journalists in Abuja on Saturday.
According to him, the event had been scheduled for Andrews Obaseki Auditorium at the National Judicial Institute in Abuja.
He also explained to newsmen why the inauguration would be coming so early.
Akande said, “What do you want me to say again? If there’s a delay in swearing them in, you will ask why the delay but it’s done early now, you are asking questions again. What will one do to please the world? I believe you have not forgotten that they will undergo induction for some time before they commence sitting.
“Elections are taking place in February 2023, we are in November already. Do you want them to be inaugurated in February next year, the same month as the election? We have always been swearing them in a few months to elections and this one is not an exception.”
