Nigerians will suffer if judges are not well paid – CJN

The Chief Justice of Nigeria (CJN) Olukayode Ariwoola has said Nigerians will continue to suffer from the nation’s judiciary system until salaries, allowances and official benefits of judges are increased.

The Chief Justice stated this on Monday at a public hearing organised by the Senate Committee on Judiciary Human Rights and Legal Matters on “a bill to prescribe the salaries allowances and fringe benefits of judicial officers”.
