CJN Tasks Judges On Flawless Verdicts

Chief Justice of Nigeria (CJN), Olukayode Ariwoola, yesterday, charged judges on faultless verdicts.

Opening the 2023 yearly Judges’ Conference of the Federal High Court (FHC) of Nigeria in Abuja, he urged jurists on fairness and dispensation of justice.

According to the CJN, it is the right of litigants and lawyers to appeal judgment from the trial court, adding that judges should be diligent and thorough in their rulings to avoid guilt.
