The Chairman, Body of Benchers, Chief Wole Olanipekun, SAN, has called for urgent intervention on the state of courtrooms in Nigeria.
Olanipekun made the remarks in Ikere-Ekiti, his country home at the commissioning of the ultra-modern courtroom, built and donated to the Ekiti State High Court, Ikere Judicial Division, yesterday. Olanipekun said the ambience of a typical or average courtroom should reflect an atmosphere of learning that judges and lawyers subscribe to, and are known for, rather than being unkempt.
“If we continue to fail, refuse and neglect to maintain Justice, Justice, in turn, may refuse to regulate us, and eventually desert us,” he said.
