The Senior Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, on Monday tweeted “President Muhammadu Buhari, in-line with his constitutional responsibility has sent the nomination of Her Lordship, Justice Monica Dongban-Mensem, Acting President, Court of Appeal to the Senate for confirmation as President, Court of Appeal.
“Justice Dongban-Mensem is a serving Justice of the Court of Appeal and was recommended, as is the practice, by the National Judicial Council for the nomination by the President.”
However, Garba Shehu had previously tweeted that due to security reasons Dongban-Mensem was yet to be appointed as the substantive president of the Court of Appeal.
