As part of measures to ensure speedy dispensation of justice in
Lagos, the administration of Gov. Babajide Sanwo-Olu is to oversee
a digital reform of courtrooms in the state.
Speaking during a media parley on Tuesday at the Ministry of
Justice, Alausa, Lagos, the state Attorney-General and Commissioner
for Justice, Mr. Moyosore Onigbanjo (SAN), said that the reforms
would take place in 2020.
He said the digital reforms would make the Lagos courtrooms
first class in Africa.
“We are going to support the judges by using the latest
technology to assist them in their work.
“Our goal is that before this administration leaves office, the
courts should be completely paperless as well as deploying
technology which is available in other parts of the world.
“We do not want to see our judges writing down in longhand
again. We also want to ensure that when people go to court, relying
on audiovisual evidence will not be a difficult thing.
“This administration wants to ensure that Lagos has the best
digitally enhanced courts in Africa.
“The governor is totally committed to doing this and we should
be rolling out our plans in the next quarter of 2020,” onigbanjo
said.
