DIGEST OF CASES ON ADMINISTRATION OF CRIMINAL JUSTICE LAWS IN NIGERIA - VOL IV OF 2023

Abstract

The enactment of the Administration of Criminal Justice Act (ACJA) in 2015, along with its state counterparts, marked a major milestone in reshaping Nigeria’s legal framework. Backed by the commitment of funders and stakeholders to strengthen capacity and build jurisprudence for effective implementation, the Criminal Justice in Nigeria Project (2.0) has generated valuable insights. The lessons learned underscore the need to institutionalize and expand these efforts, ensuring sustainability beyond the initial funding cycle while fostering inclusivity in the criminal justice reform process.
