Justice Jauro was born on June 26, 1954.

He became a Judge of the High Court in 1998 and was appointed Justice of the Court of Appeal in 2008.

Also, Justice Bage, who was born on June 22, 1956, became a Federal High Court Judge in 1992 while he was appointed as Justice of the Court of Appeal in 2000.
