The Attorney General of the Federation (AGF) and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami, has revealed in Abuja that Nigeria’s judiciary received the best funding so far under President Muhammadu Buhari.
He also promised better days for the judicial officers and their institutions in the country when the planned improved packages are implemented.
Malami spoke at the Supreme Court during its 2022/2023 Legal Year and inauguration of the newly appointed 62 Senior Advocates.
He said the President Buhari-led administration, in line with its commitment to promoting the rule of law, has accorded top priority to the funding of the judiciary.
Specifically, Malami said the government had ensured a “progressive budgetary allocation to the judiciary, which has seen an increase from N73 billion in 2015 to over N130 billion in 2022.”
He disclosed that the Federal Ministry of Justice is reviewing the National Policy on Justice to enhance stakeholders’ ability to tackle issues hindering the entire justice sector.
