The National Judicial Council (NJC) says it has issued warning letters to two judges over misconduct in the discharge of their duties.

In a statement issued on Wednesday, Soji Oye, NJC spokesperson, said the council reached its decision at its 97th meeting held on March 15 and 16, 2022.

Muawiyah Baba Idris, judge of a federal capital territory high court, was placed on the council’s watch list for one year.

The judge was reprimanded for signing the writ of possession for execution on the same day he delivered judgement in Suit No. FCT/HC/CV/FT/36/19 between Sicons Nigeria Ltd and Nile Place Restaurant and Catering Services Ltd.

“The suit was for recovery of demised property,” Oye said.

“Council agreed with the findings of the committee that investigated the Hon. judge that his action was in contravention of Proviso to Order 27 Rule (16) (b) High Court of the Federal Capital Territory Civil Procedure Rules 2018 and Order 4 (1) and (2) of the Judgement Enforcement Rules 2004.

“Council also resolved to issue a warning letter to Hon. Justice M. M. Ladan of the high court of Kaduna state having found merit in the petition written against him in suit No. KDH/KAD/1321/2018 between VTLS Inc. Vs Ahmadu Bello University.

“He signed the writ of attachment while the garnishee order nisi was pending.”
