Many Nigerians have gradually lost confidence in the judiciary because the system that should uphold truth and fairness often appears compromised. The judiciary is meant to be the last hope of the common man, but in reality, many citizens feel that justice is no longer blind — it now sees wealth, power, and influence. One of the main causes of this loss of confidence is corruption. Bribery and undue influence from politicians or wealthy individuals make court judgments seem predetermined rather than based on facts and law.
Another major issue is inconsistency in judgments. When two similar cases receive completely different rulings, it raises doubts about the integrity and independence of the judges. Many Nigerians also witness delays in court processes, where cases drag on for years without resolution. Such delays make justice expensive and emotionally draining for those seeking it.
Additionally, lack of transparency in judicial appointments, promotions, and disciplinary actions fuels public suspicion. When corrupt judges go unpunished, people feel justice has been sold to the highest bidder.
Restoring confidence in the judiciary requires accountability, transparency, and courage to uphold truth. When citizens see that justice is truly impartial, their faith in the system will be renewed, and the rule of law will thrive once again.
