Governors in the South-West geopolitical zone have proposed decentralisation of the Supreme Court in the ongoing amendments to the 1999 Constitution by the National Assembly.
Nigeria presently has one Supreme Court sitting in Abuja, the Federal Capital Territory, which handles all cases from the Court of Appeal. The South-West Governors’ Forum had met with the South-West Caucus at the National Assembly in Abuja behind closed doors on July 6, where they presented the memo. Both parties had resolved to set up a joint Senate and House committee to ensure that proposals in a memorandum presented by the governors were captured in the constitution review exercise.
