Judges bared alleged corruption njc

You're referring to the recent development in Nigeria where judges have been accused of corruption and the National Judicial Council (NJC) has taken steps to address the issue.

For those who may not be aware, the NJC is the highest policy-making body of the Nigerian judiciary, responsible for ensuring the independence, impartiality, and effectiveness of the judiciary.

In recent times, there have been allegations of corruption against some judges in Nigeria, which have led to a crisis of confidence in the judiciary. To address this issue, the NJC has taken several steps, including:

  1. Setting up a committee to investigate the allegations of corruption against the judges.
  2. Suspending some of the judges who are under investigation.
  3. Recommending the compulsory retirement of some judges who have been found guilty of corruption.
  4. Implementing measures to improve transparency and accountability in the judiciary, such as the establishment of a whistleblower policy.

The NJC has also taken steps to improve the integrity of the judiciary, including:

  1. Strengthening the judiciary's internal control mechanisms to prevent corruption.
  2. Enhancing the training and capacity-building of judges and other judicial officers.
  3. Improving the management of the judiciary's finances and resources.
  4. Increasing transparency in the judiciary's operations and decision-making processes.

Overall, the NJC's efforts to address corruption in the judiciary are aimed at restoring public confidence in the institution and ensuring that it remains a symbol of justice, fairness, and integrity in Nigeria.
