“We have to give reasons which is the bedrock of judgment writing.” Nigeria

Justice Muhammad made the appeal when the Senate Committee on Judiciary, Human Rights and Legal Matters paid him a courtesy call on Friday.

“We have the supreme court and the court of appeal and the court of appeal is having a lot of divisions including the federal high court and national industrial court.He further said that except there was adequate funding to carter for the judiciary, a lot would be missing.“Mainly on Fridays, we deliver judgments and rulings throughout the year except when we find that we can conveniently go on vacation.

“We don’t write judgment merely by stating that so, so, so and so cases were filed by this and that, and end it up by saying appeal is hereby dismissed or upheld. The CJN said that the number of appeals pending in the court and those received so far this year were mind-boggling. He said as a matter of tradition, the Committee usually paid the CJN, as the Head of the Judicial Arm of Government, a courtesy call.‘’We are here today to keep faith with the time-honoured tradition of the committee’’.
