Open Bar Initiative Replies Citizen’s Rights Initiative Releases List Of Those Interviewed For Consideration As FCT Judges
By Balogun Damilola
A Group of Legal Practitioners under the auspices of Open Bar Initiative(O.B.I) has released the list of those interviewed for consideration as Judges of the FCT High Court.
The group took this reaction while challenging the Citizens’ Rights Initiative to explain why Magistrate Olufola Olufolashade Oshin’s name is missing in the list of the 62 candidates interviewed for the High Court of FCT and how the name of the Magistrate suddenly appear in the final shortlist.
In discrediting this claim, Silas Onu asked: “If her name was not in the 62 names before final shortlisting, where did it come from.”
” These are names of those interviewed for consideration as Judges of the FCT High Court,” he said.
In the shortlist containing 62 names which was made available to TheNigeriaLawyer (TNL), the name Magistrate Olufola Olufolashade Oshin is conspicuously missing.
TNL recalls that the Citizens’ Rights Initiative has written to President Buhari countering the petition written by Open Bar Initiative against the National Judicial Council (NJC) and Magistrate Olufola Olufolashade Oshin
The Citizens’ Rights Initiative described the petition as perfidious, wicked and an attempt to tarnish the image of NJC
The Group stated in more emphatic terms that contrary to the allegation by the Open Bar Initiative, Magistrate Oshin actually participated in all the nomination process and is not true that her name was smuggled in after the nomination process.
