The Jigawa Government said on Thursday it had established
seven additional Sharia courts to improve the administration of justice
in the state.
Alhaji Bala Musa, the Chief Registrar of
the Sharia Court of Appeal, told newsmen in Dutse that the courts were
established in 2012.
Musa said the action was designed to increase the number of courts and enhance access to justice in rural communities.
He said that the state government had also executed various development projects aimed at transforming the courts.
"Our
main concern this year is to alleviate the burden of the common man.
The burden that involves coming to court to file his case.
"Jigawa
is a very wide state and we have people spread across the nook and
crannies of the state and by bringing the court closer to them you are
alleviating the burden of having to travel over long distances. Our
proposal for this year is construct five sharia courts."
