The Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Lateef Fagbemi, has confirmed that the federal government has commenced the payment of the 300% salary increase to judicial officers in the country.
The AGF gave the confirmation on Monday while speaking during the 12th Convocation ceremony of Afe Babalola University, Ado-Ekiti (ABUAD), which took place on Monday in Ekiti State.
The Minister said the upward review of the salary of judicial officers is part of the interventions of the administration of President Bola Tinubu.
He said, “I am again pleased to report that a major intervention of the Tinubu administration in the judiciary is the recent 300% upward review of the remuneration of judicial officers in Nigeria across board. To be true, I can confirm that the implementation of this has begun in earnest.”
Fagbemi also announced the intention of the federal government to conduct a comprehensive evaluation of Nigeria’s laws to better address the nation’s evolving needs.
He said the review will cut across all aspects of national life, including social, economic and political aspects.
“We have assembled a team of legal luminaries to achieve this within a very limited timeframe.
“This law review intervention will cut across all aspects of our social, economic, and political life,” he said.
