Senior Lawyers Seek Constitutional Court for Political Cases

The Body of Senior Advocates of Nigeria on Thursday canvassed for the establishment of constitutional court in order to decongest the workload of the courts in the country.

He insisted that establishment of constitutional courts must be revisited and reintegrated into the constitution of the country in compliance with Section 250. Awomolo recalled the revelation by the Federal High Court that over 16, 000 cases were carried over from 2019 to 2020 legal year with many of the cases filed over four years ago, adding that the trend must not be allowed to continue since it can lead to denial of justice.

“Most high courts are occupied with political cases and most judicial officers from the high courts to Supreme Court have no vacation this year due to heavy work load of cases in their courts. Awomolo then called on the Bar and the Bench to push for constitutional amendment to back up the establishment of the suggested constitutional courts.
