The Chief Justice of Nigeria, Justice Walter Onnoghen, said on Monday that the judiciary at the state level was being deprived of financial independence.
He said financial autonomy was critical to the judiciary.
He said while the federal judiciary was enjoying financial independence, there was the need for the law to be amended before the third arm of government at the state level could enjoy same.
