Judicial Remuneration Should Be Review, Says Ajimobi

The Oyo State Governor, Abiola Ajimobi, has advocated for special remuneration for judges in the Nigeria to lessen the incidence of material and financial inducement of the course of justice dispensation.

Ajimobi said the Federal and state governments should review judges’ remuneration to avert what he called ‘travesty of justice,’ which, according to him, had stained the country’s judiciary.

The governor also admonished judges to always ensure that their pronouncements and sentencing are commensurate with offences committed, warning that a slap on the wrist would embolden criminals to remain incorrigible.
