Every day in Nigeria, in every Magistrate Court and High Court, and even at Police Stations, parties are seeking leave to settle their cases amicably, or reporting progress or the lack of it in settlement negotiations, or reporting that settlement has resulted in an agreement, or has failed to yield results. Alas, too many times the result has been negative, resulting in jaded views that settlement talks are a waste of time.
However, efforts at a negotiated settlement is yielding results for those who get it right.
