Kano Assembly Passes Multi-Door Court Bill

Kano House of Assembly has passed the Kano State Multi-door Court Bill 2021.

The bill, which was passed on Wednesday, provides for alternative means of dispute resolution in the state.

Majority Leader of the House, Labaran Abdul-Madari, disclosed this while addressing newsmen shortly after the plenary presided over by the Speaker Hamisu Ibrahim-Chidari in Kano.

“The passage of the bill was sequel to deliberations by the lawmakers in the committee of the whole whose.”

Abdul-Madari explained that the law would go a long way in promoting alternative dispute resolution and decongesting correctional centres.

He stated that multi-door courts would be established across the metropolis and local government areas to oversee civil cases.

Madari maintained that criminal cases are excluded from the multi-door courts.
