The Chief Justice of Nigeria, CJN, Justice Olukayode Ariwoola lamented on Monday in Abuja that Nigerians, especially the political class are the most

Justice Ariwoola canvassed the need for the Nigerian public to be told to do less litigation and embrace more of alternative dispute resolution to free the courts of unnecessary over-stretching of human and material resources.

Justice Ariwoola spoke at the Supreme Court at a special court session to mark the 2022/2023 legal year of the Apex Court and the inauguration of the 62 new Senior Advocates of Nigeria, SAN. “Out of the 4,741 appeals in the court’s docket, 1,495 have briefs filed and exchanged and are ready for hearing; whereas, the remaining 3,246 appeals are having about 10,000 motions, with some contentious and others innocuous in nature.

“It is on record that we work from Monday to Friday every week. We conduct sittings on daily basis. It is only on Wednesdays we do chamber sitting to consider non-contentious matters. On Fridays, we deliver judgments and rulings.”

God bless u Justice Ariwoola & ur family for ur tedious works of dispensing Justice in the Supreme court. My Lordship, I am very happy when I red all u have done as CJN so far. Pls. My Lordship, speed up Justice in the case of Mazi Nnamdi KANU to vindicate him .

The society is messed up.

It is because people' rights are trampled upon with impunity on daily basis mostly in Nigeria. Could u imagine where court gave order to release Mazi Nnamdi KANU Buhari & Malami refused. Tell me anywhere in the in the World such thing happened.

He doesn't know what he is talking about. This is not true..

CJN’s Comment On G5 Govs Was Twisted – S’ Court By Adeola Soetan | Sahara ReportersAs Yoruba say: A o ti ko Ifa nile, Ifa ti n'se'. It literally means that Ifa prediction is manifesting earlier than expected. I wrote recently about the indiscretion of the CJN Ariwoola to have attended 'the ongoing Wike & Gang Dance and Cultural Troupe Fiesta'. I think the CJN should have sent a representative to that event with a prepared speech judging from Wike & Gang's ongoing political razzmatazz. Omo this man face doesn’t look Good

Despite video evidence, supreme court denies Ariwoola's comment on Makinde, Integrity Group | TheCableThe supreme court has condemned reports quoting Olukayode Ariwoola, chief justice of Nigeria (CJN), to have said he is 'happy' that Seyi Makinde, the Oyo governor, is a member of the “Integrity Group”. Very unfortunate I listened to this brief remarks a couple of times. There is nothing partisan in what this man said. He just want a replication of GovWike achievements at his home state. Lol..I hate the media. Context matters in narratives; glad we watched the video.
