Lagos State Government has restated commitment to continually deliver quality judicial services to the residents of the State through training and retraining of the workforce.

According to government, since peaceful co-existence is pivotal to the economic growth of any government, Lagos, being the hub of socio-economic activities of the nation, will continue to place high premium on the promotion of a peaceful atmosphere.

Solicitor-General and Permanent Secretary, Lagos State Ministry of Justice, Funlola Odunlami said this at an In-house Training organised for staff of the Citizens Mediation Centre.

Odunlami charged all staff of the Centre to be conversant with the judicial service delivery policy of the present administration, saying the training was put in place to hone the mediation skills of mediators and reduce unenforceable Memorandum of Understanding for better service delivery to users of the Centre.

She said to effectively mediate over issues, it was compulsory for the mediators to be well-grounded and equipped with knowledge of relevant laws guiding their operations.

The Solicitor-General admonished the trainees to avail themselves of the opportunity provided by the training, saying the calibre of facilitators for the training were well researched as they were seasoned professionals with vast experiences in mediation.
