Njc sacks cross river judge #

It appears that you are referring to the recent development in Nigeria where the National Judicial Council (NJC) has sacked a judge in Cross River State.

For the benefit of those who may not be aware, the NJC is the highest governing body of the Nigerian judiciary, responsible for regulating the conduct of judges and ensuring the independence of the judiciary.

According to reports, the NJC has removed Justice Akon Ikpatt, a judge of the Cross River State High Court, from office due to allegations of misconduct and gross misconduct.

The NJC's decision was reportedly taken after a thorough investigation into the allegations against Justice Ikpatt, which included allegations of corruption, abuse of office, and disrespect to the court.

The sack of Justice Ikpatt is seen as a significant development in the ongoing efforts to reform the Nigerian judiciary and ensure that judges are held accountable for their actions.

It is worth noting that the NJC's decision is final and binding, and Justice Ikpatt's removal from office is effective immediately.

I hope this information is helpful.
