Chief Justice of Nigeria, Justice OLUKAYODE ARIWOOLA has expressed concern over the significant volume of cases, particularly those of a political nature, that judges are tasked with handling daily.

Justice ARIWOOLA raised this concern during the swearing-in of recently appointed Justices of the Court of Appeal in Abuja.

The Chief Justice advocated a reduction in litigation and a greater emphasis on alternative dispute resolution methods which he argued would reduce the workload of justices and conserve valuable resources.
