Today, Dr. Patrick Umoh, the honourable member representing Ikot Ekpene/Essien Udim/Obot Akara Federal Constituency, presented a motion on the urgent need for the Federal Government to appoint new justices to the Supreme Court of Nigeria. This motion was prompted by the current status of the Supreme Court, which operates with only 10 justices, a number that falls short of the constitutionally required 21 justices. According to the motion, the shortage is causing delays in the handling of electoral matters, obstructing the timely delivery of justice, hindering economic development, and placing significant mental and physical pressure on the existing Supreme Court justices. The motion called upon the Federal Government to appoint new justices to the Supreme Court to expedite the resolution of pending cases. Additionally, it commended the President for his support of the judiciary, particularly for signing an important amendment unifying the retirement age and pension benefits of judicial officers. The motion received unanimous endorsement from members of House and was subsequently referred to the Committee on Federal Judiciary for further action. The plenary session was presided over by the Deputy Speaker, Rt. Hon. Benjamin Kalu.
