Chief Justice of Nigeria Olukayode Ariwoola announced that the Supreme Court has delivered 272 judgments in the 2022/2023 legal year. He made the statement while extending greetings to Nigeria’s Christian and Muslim faithful during the Easter celebrations and the ongoing Ramadan.

The Chief Justice noted that the judgments covered civil, criminal and election‑related cases, and he urged both Christians and Muslims to use these holy occasions to pray for continued peace and tranquility in the country.

“It is with gratitude to Almighty Allah, the most gracious, most merciful, and most benevolent, for His grace in this season when Christians and Muslims worldwide are fasting and calling on God for protection and blessings that I express my greetings to all,” he said.

Ariwoola thanked his fellow Justices of the Supreme Court of Nigeria and the supporting staff for their unalloyed cooperation since the beginning of the current legal year, which started in mid‑September 2022. He specifically praised the Justices who delivered the 272 judgments in civil, criminal and election‑related appeals despite immense pressure.

“We appreciate, adore, and give glory to Almighty God, who has continued to keep us all in good health,” he added.

The Chief Justice concluded by wishing the Christian faithful a joyous Easter, the Muslim ummah a rewarding Ramadan, and a happy Eid‑el‑Fitr.
