The Bill seeks to establish the Magistrate Courts, provide for the appointment and working conditions of the state’s magistrates, and address other related matters.

Speaking on the general principles of the bill, the House leader, Hon. AbdulKadir Magaji, who is the prime mover of the bill, highlighted the role of a Magistrate’s court in providing accessible justice for everyday legal issues, saying it’s very important in society.

The lawmakers noted that the passage of the Bill will ensure adequate remuneration and a conducive working environment for the magistrates.

They described the Bill as important and long overdue, given the critical role Magistrate Courts play in handling minor criminal and civil cases and preliminary hearings for more serious cases.
