President Bola Tinubu is committed to a justice sector that delivers timely outcomes to Nigerians.

AGF Lateef Fagbemi said this at the launch of the Enterprise Content Management System by the Federal Ministry of Justice in Abuja, according to a statement.

The ECMS is a digital platform that enables the ministry to create, process, approve, store, and retrieve official documents electronically.

Mr Fagbemi said the launch marked the ministry’s departure from the era of manual, unstructured information management into a digital era.

“By digitalising our correspondence, emails, and legal documents, we are dismantling the bureaucratic bottlenecks that have historically slowed the wheels of justice.

“This transition to a paperless environment is a cornerstone of our digital transformation strategy, specifically aligned with Pillar 5 of the Federal Civil Service Strategy and Implementation Plan.

“The initiative is also firmly situated within the Renewed Hope Agenda of the President and the National Policy on Justice,” Mr Fagbemi stated.

He reiterated that these frameworks are unequivocal as justice institutions must be efficient, accountable, digitally enabled, and capable of delivering timely outcomes to Nigerians.

“The ECMS is therefore not merely a technological intervention; it is a governance reform that strengthens institutional memory, improves decision-making, secures records, and enforces discipline in workflow and accountability.

“This is the standard expected of a modern justice sector, and our goal is clear: to build a justice sector that is modern, efficient, and above all, citizen-driven,” the AGF explained.

Mr Fagbemi noted that the ministry under his leadership has prioritised staff welfare and workplace modernisation to create an environment where excellence can thrive, mirroring the service-wide reforms spearheaded by the Office of the Head of the Civil Service of the Federation.

He thereafter thanked the Aig-Imoukhuede Foundation, Koyinsola Ajayi of Olaniwun Ajayi and Co., staff, sister ministries, and partners for their support.
