Abstract
The life of the law has not been logic; it has been experience. The law embodies the story of a nation’s development through many centuries and it cannot be dealt with as if it contained only axioms and collaries of a book of mathematics. The development and growth of a nation largely depends on its legal system and its system of adjudication. This might be met by unexpected criticism from all and sundry; but the truth is, the law is the instrument through which the state meets the expected end -- a just society. The judiciary, then, becomes an important catalyst in this expedition. Many of our resources has been channeled at wrong course; dilapidated structures; corrupt individuals; and also, criminality is at its peak. The judiciary, is surely needed to stabilize this society. But, the important issue worth considering here is, what type of judiciary is needed? And, what system of adjudication do we proffer? Also, the vexed question is -- do we still have justice in our court? And, is the judiciary still fit and capable?This paper aims its arrow at an attempt at restructuring the dilapidated system of the Nigerian Justice System; and to make a clarion call to all stake-holders in the administration of the justice to ensure that the ends of justice is met.
