Justice Mary Odili’s Daughter, Njideka Iheme Sworn In As Federal High Court Judge

Mrs. Njideka Iheme, the daughter of former Rivers State Governor, Peter Odili and Justice Mary Odili of the Supreme Court, has been sworn in as a Judge of the Federal High Court.

Mrs. Iheme and 20 others were sworn in as Judges of the Federal Capital Territory High Court by the Chief Justice of Nigeria, Honourable Justice Ibrahim Tanko Muhammad, on Tuesday, November 2021.

Justice Njideka is married Uzoma Nwosu Iheme, the son of Court of Appeals Judge, Justice Chioma Nwosu Iheme.

KanyiDaily had recently reported how security operatives made up of the Nigerian Army and police invaded the home of Justice Mary Odili in Abuja.

The security operatives, who identified themselves as members of a joint task force, came with a search warrant on Friday night, saying that they received information on “illegal activities” going on in Mary Odili’s house.

It was gathered that the security operatives did not discover anything of interest in relation to the alleged illegal activities, and left after about an hour.

The Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami had denied his involvement in the raid, saying he would not stoop so low to associate himself with such a “nasty” court process (warrant).
