The Katsina State Chief Judge, Justice Musa Danladi Abubakar, has blamed lawyers and litigants for the slow pace of justice administration in the country.
The chief judge, who disclosed this, yesterday, in an interactive session with some journalists in Katsina, blamed the lawyers for prolonging cases in court through adjournments.
He explained that lawyers as ministers in the temple of justice, cause delay in the administration of justice hence the need for them to revamp the trend for speedy dispensation of justice in the country.
While describing the situation in courts as one of the challenges experienced by judges, the chief judge called for a mechanism to track cases in various courts and the lawyers handling such cases.
He therefore, called on the state and federal governments to ensure the digitisation of court rooms in order to pave the way for speedy dispensation of justice in the country.
