Chief Judge of Oyo State, has revealed that the state family court will take off next legal year to give justice to child offenders and adjudicate over matrimonial issues. He said only a conducive court environment can ensure quick dispensation without undue adjournment of cases. He however maintained that absolute or perfect justice cannot exist or does not exist saying Justice “is in the eyes of the holder”. The Oyo Chief Judge stated this while delivering the 2018 Faculty of Law lecture at the University of Ibadan entitled “Absolute Justice: Fact or Fiction” He lamented that lack of conducive environment can affect dispensation of justice and delay in court pronouncement adding that “some courts are regrettably not qualified to be called court rooms” Justice Abimbola noted that a court that has no good ventilation, very hot and lawyers and litigants and presiding judge or magistrate sweating so profusely tending to cases being adjourned frequently contributing to delayed trials. According to the Chief Judge the absence of good court environment can lead to the denial of enforcement rights. He therefore noted that the State Family Court has been completed and will take off by next legal year to give justice to Child litigant or offender as well as attend to matrimonial proceedings. But the Chief Judge maintained that in order to ensure justice and put in check delayed trials in the litigation or trial process and settlement of disputes in court, Alternative Dispute Resolution are now being encouraged in the state which he says gives assured justice to parties than the litigation process. According to the Chief Judge of Oyo State, “in deciding what is morally right or wrong and considered justice, subjective valuation is involved. what is considered justice in certain societies at certain period might be considered injustice at a latter period and depending on subjective consideration. There is no absolute criterion to measure justice”. “The Child’s Rights Law has been promulgated since 2006. This law recognises the rights of children and provides for its enforcement. the law disallows trials of juvenile offenders with adult. The child offender should be given a fair trials and the trial process must be seen to be fair to uphold justice for the child offender. “In matrimonial proceedings some issues are so serious, it is given a protected trial, and such cases are better suited to be tried in Family courts, a child friendly environment. How then can justice be for a child litigant or offender without their courts? The good news however is that as Chief Judge I made it a priority to have a family court. It has been completed and shall take off by the next legal year”]]>
