 Delta State Governor Wright Honorable Sheriff Oboro Worry has called for the introduction of restorative justice and non-custodial sentences in the Nigerian judicial system to help decongest correctional centers across the country. The governor made the call during the inauguration of members of the State Advisory Council on the Parogative of Messi at Government House, Asaba Correspondent Akumejiro Friday reported that Oboro Worry said the call had become imperative following the rising number of persons awaiting trial in custodial centers across the country. In order to be excised, the convict must have exhausted all his legal rights of appeal or does not intend to excise such rights or is innocent of the kind of wish he was convicted. The primitive of Messi is sometimes called clemency or state pardon or amnesty. It is a useful tool in the regime of criminal justice because it helps to decongest our prisons. Currently, total number of units in the State Five Custodial Centers is 2,371 out of 1,545 trial and waiting trial. As a part of continuous efforts of government to address issues of contestant with a waiting trial image, the State Government passed the abjure of criminal justice law 2020. On her part, the Chairman of the Advisory Council Justice Celestina Augusti, who will thank Governor Oboro Worry for finding them worthy to serve the state, pledged to work with the guidelines regulating the activities of the council. In charging its duty, the council will abide by set-down guidelines and will commit to his excellence in the government only applicants who meet the criteria for the exercise of his discretion. Let me have ever emphasized for the information of Gerard Worry that the discretion to pardon, release or mitigate the sentence of an applicant is solely and strictly that of his exercise in the government. I appeal to all members of the public or to inundate the members of the council with unnecessary pressure.
