Kwara to amend criminal justice act
The Kwara State Government has announced its plan to amend the Administration of Criminal Justice Act to make it more effective and responsive.
The Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice, Senior Ibrahim Sulyman, disclosed this on Sunday in an interview with Daily Trust.
“Whenever you are charged to court, the court should discharge you if you are not found wanting, not we terminating it from our end.
“We are going to make it stiffer for those involved in criminal activities. Every other thing I won’t like to go into details but some of our laws will be amended with the help of the state assembly.” he said
Sulyman spoke at a special prayer organised for him and Mohammad Abdulkadir, the Special Adviser on Social Intervention and Humanitarian Affairs to Senator Soliu Mustapha.
Both are from the Faagba community, Ori Okoh, in Ilorin West Local Government Area of the state.
The President of Faagba Community Development Association, AbdulRazaq Salaudeen, thanked the governor and senator for appointing their sons and prayed for their success. He also expressed his confidence in their abilities to deliver on their mandates.
