So you mean since 1999 they didn't know that something like this should be in the constitution, smh.

You are ignorant

They better employ more Judges because this ones are overworked already, then they should also focus on laws that will deter spurious claims by litigants, very very important.

This law has 2 dimensions, on one hand it will help save a lot of innocent people who were thrown in jail from staying there indefinitely.

On the other hand some people might use it to escape trial by running off until the case has expired, especially those of the political class with sticky fingers.

This will be a nice bill if it comes to fruition

Igbosere Magistrate Court. Though COVID and now court closure have played a part but we should've been advanced now if not for the opposing lawyer's antics and the court's hands as usual are tied with "in the interest of justice."

You people talk to much !! Haba !!

Else throw the case out..

Na our work. Sorry!

It is not only about creating deadlines & timeframes for speedy adjudication of civil & criminal matters. It calls for a reformation of the Nigeria Judicial system.
You have to substantially increase the numbers of judges inorder to decrease the caseloads on each judges. Also budget of the judiciary should be increased.
