According to her, “It is a bad period in the sense that the judiciary is being bashed and public confidence in the legal system is dwindling, occasioned by incessant conflicting judgments in our courts and flagrant indiscipline amongst lawyers. ”
She said, in a bid to address this vexed issue of conflicting judgments, the body of benchers has constituted a committee made up of ranking members of the profession to see to the issue and come up with the best possible ways of addressing the concerns.
“When the Committee completes its assignment and presents its report to the Body of Benchers; it will, upon consideration and approval, be forwarded to the relevant bodies for implementation,” she stated.
