President Muhammadu Buhari on Thursday inaugurated Justice Walter Onnoghen as the acting Chief Justice of Nigeria.
This is following the retirement of Justice Mahmud Mohammed at the attainment of the mandatory 70 years’ retirement age.
Onnoghen is expected to act until the name of substantive CJN is forwarded to the Senate and it is confirmed.
The brief inauguration ceremony witnessed by top government officials took place inside the Council Chambers of the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
