FREE LEGAL SERVICES
It’s no news that Nigeria Criminal Justice System is slow. It is characterized by unending adjournment.
The whole system has been described as “a conveyor belt of injustice.”
Christopher Ademola has been awaiting trial in Ikoyi prison since December 8th, 2018 for an alleged conspiracy/stealing offence. His matter which was adjourned for trial on 29th April, and 5th June, 2019 respectively did not hold.
Acquit International’s legal team again were in court to represent him today, however, the matter was yet again adjourned to September, 2019 for trial. We hope the trial holds this next date and justice be served Christopher Ademola.
This is one of the reasons we exist, to provide pro bono legal services and ensure an effective/efficient criminal justice system.
