The National Minimum Standards (NMS) are those basic elements the Nigerian Criminal Justice System should attain to effectively function in the best interest of citizens, the state as well as aid the fight against corruption. These minimum standards are provisions of the ACJA and ACJLs which must be implemented for the innovations in the law to be effectively realized.
About Us
Amongst the National Minimum Standards, the "core essential elements" are the fundamental provisions of the ACJA and ACJLs. These form the fulcrum of the clusters of provisions related to Pre-trial processes; trial proceedings; case management processes, timeframes and institutional framework for sustainable reforms. The phrase, "core essential elements" was first used by Yvonne Darkwa-Poki of the MacAruthur Foundation.
