- @Makeandtoss and Reading Beans: The hooks says he was the "12th Attorney-General" but the article states that he was the "12th Chief Justice of Nigeria" - they do not seem like the same thing. Also do we need to know that he was 12th for the hook? Lightburst (talk) 21:46, 12 April 2024 (UTC)
- Lightburst, thank you for pointing this error on my side. I just had to flip the pages to confirm if he was an AGF or CJN—he was the CJN. We need to know he was the 12th to reduce confusion; some may think that he is still the current CJN, but of course, I am open to suggestions. Best, Reading Beans 21:58, 12 April 2024 (UTC)
- @Reading Beans:Thanks. I have done my checks so that this can be promoted but this has to wait for a biography spot in an open prep. Lightburst (talk) 22:05, 12 April 2024 (UTC)
