We wonder why our justice system is flawed...The statue of a woman symbolises emotion, the sword symbolises punishment, the blindfold symbolises illogicality and unobjectivity.

The scale is useless if you cannot see what you are weighing, when you are only interested in punishment the scale is useless, and a naturally emotional being cannot be the symbol of justice.

Incidentally, Nigeria's justice system behaves exactly like what symbolise it operations. It's so sad really.
