O knihe
This book discusses court users' experiences of judicial corruption in Nigeria using the socio-economic characteristics of litigants and lawyers as a measure of their vulnerability to judicial corruption in the courts. The study was conducted to advance research on judicial corruption in Nigeria since previous attempts at measuring corruption in the judiciary were largely historical and descriptive. Even recent studies which attempted to study the problem relied on measure of perception of corruption and measure of judicial integrity instead of focusing on victims of corruption. This study was therefore conceived to fill the gap in knowledge. The study was carried out in selected High Courts and Magistrate Courts of Lagos State, Nigeria using victimization survey and key informant interviews. The study found that age, gender, income and regularity in the court are not significantly related to court users' vulnerability to judicial corruption. It however found positive relationship between education and nature of court case.
