The immediate past Governor of Abia State, Dr Okezie Ikpeazu has sent a warm message of congratulations to The Honorable Justice Chidi Nwaoma Uwa, on the very auspicious event of her swearing-in as a Justice of the Supreme Court of Nigeria, yesterday by the Chief Justice of Nigeria.
Dr. Ikpeazu is delighted that the sterling and very distinguished judicial career of Justice Uwa has berthed at the topmost Court in Nigeria.
In his words, “Justice Uwa is coming to the Supreme Court fully prepared. She has traversed the entire gamut of the Nigerian Judiciary, from the Magistracy of the old Imo State to the High Court of Abia State to the Court of Appeal, delivering landmark judgments and contributing her quota to the development of our Judiciary”.
Dr Ikpeazu notes that by this elevation, Justice Uwa has made history as the very first woman from Abia State to sit on the Bench of the Supreme Court of Nigeria. She is also the second Abian, after the Late Justice I F Ogbuagu, to be so elevated.
This elevation, Dr Ikpeazu continues, is a clear testament to the truism that hard work, honesty, integrity, brilliance, and focus will ultimately be rewarded.
The former Governor is confident that the new Supreme Court Justice will bring to bear on her new assignment, those virtues of integrity and strict adherence to the rule of law, that have defined her excellent judicial career.
Dr Ikpeazu, on behalf of his family, sends his warmest congratulations to Justice Uwa and prays the good Lord to bless and guide her as she takes her well-deserved seat at the revered Bench of the Supreme Court of Nigeria.

Spokesman to Okezie Ikpeazu, Ph.D.
