The Supreme Court of Nigeria delivered a total of 251 judgments between September 2022 and July 2023, including 125 political appeals, 81 civil appeals, and 45 criminal appeals. Additionally, 91 rulings were delivered within a 10-month period. The court's performance is considered impressive despite challenges faced.
Ariwoola said this at the opening of the 2023/2024 new legal year and the conferment of the prestigious rank of Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN) on 58 legal practitioners on Monday in Abuja. "Similarly, the court considered a total number of 49 criminal motions, 153 civil motions, and 2 political motions. "Between September 30, 2022 and July 11, 2023, the supreme court delivered a total number of 251 judgments.
Out of these, 125 were political appeals, 81 were civil appeals and 45 were criminal appeals. "Within the period under review, precisely 10 months’ duration, a total number of 91 rulings were delivered by the honourable court. ”To a very large extent, I will confidently say that this score-card is impressive, fascinating and appreciable in view of the unpleasant events that dotted the legal year, especially the attenuating number of justices on the supreme court bench, which has to do with some challenges that could not easily be surmounted by one arm of government alon
