The Chief Registrar of the Court of Appeal, Umar M. Bangari Esq., has reacted to reports rife on traditional and online media that the Justices of the Appeal Court panel which decided the appeal of Nnamdi Kanu V. Federal Republic of Nigeria on the 13th of October, 2022, were transferred from their divisions as a result of their decision.

In a press release made available to TheNigeriaLawyer, the Court’s Registrar ruled out the insinuation which he said was peddled by Vanguard Newspaper on Monday, 24th of October, 2022.

According to the statement, “the general postings of the Justices of the Court were routine and aimed at reinvigorating the justice delivery system of the Court.”

He continued, “In fact, 21 out of 81 Justices, including 6 Presiding Justices of the Court were affected by the postings. Indeed, of the 3 Justices that sat and determined the Appeal, only one was affected by the general postings.”

Mr. Bangari in the statement further described it as incorrect and uncharitable to insinuate that the Justices who delivered the judgement were the targets of the routine posting exercise.

He equally appealed to Vanguard Newspaper and the general media to exercise restraint and circumspection in reporting matters pertaining to the Court and its operations.
