The National Judicial Council (NJC) recommends 28 candidates for appointment as judicial officers across six states, including 24 recommended for positions in various State High Courts.

According to two outlets, the NJC’s list covers judges’ appointments for State High Courts in Kano, Ebonyi, Edo, Adamawa and Ogun states, with the remaining recommendations tied to other judicial officer roles within the six-state scope mentioned. The reporting focuses on the NJC’s recommendations and the full distribution of candidates by state.

Both articles present the same core information about the number of recommended candidates and the main state allocations, with Premium Times framing its report as a “FULL LIST” publication. The Punch similarly emphasizes the NJC’s recommendation count and the multi-state spread, using a “FULL LIST” headline as well.
