The Kaduna Branch of the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) has praised Governor Uba Sani for his efforts in bolstering the Judiciary. In a statement, the Association commended the 'massive renovation and rehabilitation of the High Court complex', stating that these improvements will greatly benefit the judicial officers. The NBA also welcomed Governor Sani's provision of 40 official vehicles to the High Court, Shari'ah Court of Appeal, and Customary Court of Appeal judges.
They particularly appreciated the restoration of the robe allowance for Magistrates, including the overdue 2024 allowance.
The NBA lauded the Governor's recognition of the judiciary as a vital institution for maintaining the rule of law and ensuring effective justice delivery. However, they requested that Governor Sani extend the same support to lower courts and enhance their facilities and working conditions. They argued that Magistrates and other judicial officers at lower courts are essential in delivering justice and need adequate logistical and infrastructural support to carry out their duties effectively.
The NBA believes that continuous investment across all levels of the judiciary will improve access to justice, reduce delays, and strengthen public confidence in the justice system.
