South Africa appoints its first woman chief justice, marking a historic milestone in the judiciary and promoting gender equality.
South African judge Mandisa Maya was appointed chief justice by President Cyril Ramaphosa on Thursday, becoming the first woman to secure the role.
Her rise marked a"significant milestone" as"Justice Maya would be the first woman in South Africa to be appointed Chief Justice", the presidency said in a statement. Maya had missed out on the top job in 2022, when the Judicial Service Commission recommended her for the role, but Ramaphosa chose Zondo, 64, instead.
The justice ministry described her as a"brilliant legal mind and a trailblazer" with a long legal career that previously saw her become the first woman to hold the position of president of the supreme court of appeal.
