THE ROLE OF NIGERIAN COURTS AND TRIBUNALS IN THE ADMINISTRATION OF JUSTICE


THE ROLE OF NIGERIAN COURTS AND TRIBUNALS IN THE ADMINISTRATION OF JUSTICE

The judicial powers of the Federation and of States
are vested in Courts established by section 6 of the Constitution of the
Federal Republic of Nigeria 1999 (as amended) and other courts established for
the Federation by an Act of the National Assembly or in case of States, Law
made by the relevant State House of Assembly. The Judicial powers gradually,
due to increase in litigations and criminal trials beyond the capacity of the
regular courts, were no longer exclusive to the Courts but rather had to be
shared with tribunals established for particular purposes. This development
consequently brought about two parallel systems of adjudicating institutions
operating side by side. While some tribunals, like the investment and
Securities Tribunal, have justified their establishment by dispensing Justice
timeously and by experts in the particular field of the tribunal’s
jurisdiction, others seem to have defeated the very essence of their
establishment like Code of Conduct Tribunals. Tribunals like the Code of
Conduct Tribunal apart from being redundant is seen as an agent of the Federal
Government since it is absolutely controlled by the Code of Conduct Bureau,
which is directly under the Presidency. This explains the redundant nature of
the tribunal as it serves more or less as a stooge of the Presidency from where
most of the culprits should have been arraigned.

The Laws establishing
various tribunals have their inbuilt shortcomings that hinder the trial
procedure or occasion unnecessary delays contrary to the very essence of
establishing the tribunals. The courts in Nigeria could be said to have
contributed in some measure to the development of Law, particularly in the
field of animal Law and Constitutional Law. However administration of Justice
seems to suffer several challenges. Some of these challenges were attributed to
factors associated with adversarial system, coupled with rancorous nature of
proceedings and so on. Details of this has been vividly elucidated. The
development in respect of funding of Courts has been pointed out.
