The Chief Justice of Nigeria, Justice Tanko Muhammad, declared on Monday that the future of the Nigerian judiciary under his watch is bright.
He said since being appointed, his focus had been on reinventing the processes of the judiciary, to ensure speedy justice dispensation and to rid the institution of corruption.
Muhammad spoke in Lagos at the opening ceremony of the 2019 edition of the Nigerian Bar Association Annual General Conference.
While describing the theme of the conference, “Facing the Future,” as apt, the CJN said though some, out of pessimism or timidity, might describe the future as bleak, “for the judiciary, under our watch, I can assure you that, by the grace of God, the future looks bright.”
He said, since his appointment as the Chief Justice, his focus has been on reinventing processes, providing speedy and quality administration of justice, strengthening structures from the Supreme Court to other courts of records and stamping out corruption from the system.
