Chief Justice of Nigeria, Ibrahim Muhammad has stated that he can not reach out to all 36 state governors to ask them to implement financial autonomy for the judiciary.<\/p>\n

Recall that President Muhammadu Buhari in May 2020 had granted financial autonomy to the legislature and judiciary across the 36 states of the country.<\/p>\n

The order makes it mandatory for all states to include the allocations of both the legislature and the judiciary<\/a> in the first-line charge of their budgets.<\/p>\n

This gives powers to the accountant-general of the federation to deduct from source, amount due to the state legislatures and judiciaries from the monthly allocation to each state, for states that refuse to grant such autonomy.<\/p>\n

However, state governors are yet to carry out the implementation of this executive order.<\/p>\n

Following the state governors refusal to implement the order, members of the Judiciary Staff Union of Nigeria (JUSUN) commenced a nationwide strike<\/a><\/strong> on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

Reacting to the strike via a statement released by Ahuraka Isah, media aide to the CJN, it was revealed that the CJN, Muhammad\u00a0met with the leadership of JUSUN to discuss the negative impact of the strike on court users.<\/p>\n

According to Isah, the CJN said he would have loved to speak to each governor on implementing financial autonomy for the judiciary, but noted that it may amount to owing them favours.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe unintended sufferers of this strike are better imagined. It has spiral effects, including on our children and on the federal judiciary, which is a lesser culprit,\u201d the CJ was quoted saying.<\/p>\n

\u201cOrdinarily, I would say let me talk to the individual 36 state governors, which amounts to asking for their favours, but some of them would ask me to do 10 favours in return.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is why, as a judge, I am prohibited from asking for favours.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
