The Attorney General of the federation Lateef Fagbemi says a sentencing Judge must strive to achieve the right balance by also imposing a merited sentence in the case at hand.
He made this statement at the two day workshop on non custodial measures and sentencing under the A.C.J.A.
The Administration of criminal justice Act in sections 327, 422, 424, 434 and 437 confers wide discretion on the court to impose, vary, enforce or alternate a sentence or fine.
While fines go to the state (or federal or local government prosecuting the crime), restitution or compensation is money paid by the defendant to the victim or victim’s estate or to a state restitution fund.
The non custodial measures is a restorative justice approach which gives the victim a greater sense of justice, as offenders are made to compensate the victim and make repairs for the damages they might have caused, unlike the retributive approach.
A case in point of a non custodial sentence is that of a former permanent secretary of the Ministry of interior Anastasia Daniel-Nwobia.
Mrs Daniel-Nwobia was convicted on 7th April 2022 by Justice Nnmadi Dimgba over her role in the botched March 15, 2014 Nigeria Immigration Service recruitment tragedy where about 15 job seekers died in a stampede.
The judge ordered that the convict should not hold public office for the next five years except on consultancy basis.
He ruled that her travel passport be retained by the court as she was restricted from travelling outside Nigeria for the next five years without the permission of the court.
The court also ruled that the convict should choose one out of any of four institutions to teach a course on compliance for one academic session.
For a better understanding of the implementation of non custodial measures and sentencing guidelines under the administration of criminal justice act 2015 the federal ministry of justice has held a two day workshop for correctional officers and judges.
In considering the application of non-custodial measures the court shall base its decision on The nature of the offense, The personality, background of the offender, The purpose of the sentence and The rights of the victim.
