It is critical that we have a professional and dedicated Chief Justice during the months ahead.
Since our (former) Chief Justice has clearly expressed his intention to leave the CDS, and since one of the remaining two qualified judge ccandidates has resigned, I suggest the RA makes it its first order of business to appoint Oni Jiutai, the remaining qualified candidate, Chief Justice should he accept to serve, of course...
Whilst I would very much regret losing Oni as a CARE member (as I understand he would resign his membership once confirmed as a judge), I think he is exactly the right person for the job at a critical time for our community. With his assistance as Chief Justice, I think this RA will be able to lay down the entire framework for CDS' future juridico-political system.
Let us not waste this opportunity and the valuable human capital available to us right now...
