 Kwara Judge: Southwest Governments Have No Authority to Ban Shari’ah Panels


Justice Abdurraheem Sayi, Qadi of the Shari’ah Court of Appeal, has dismissed opposition to Shari’ah arbitration panels in the Southwest, describing it as Islamophobia.


Speaking at the University of Lagos Muslim Alumni 30th Pre-Ramadan Lecture, he argued that neither state authorities nor traditional rulers have the power to block the establishment of such panels. He emphasized that arbitration operates by contract under Nigerian law and does not require government approval.


Justice Sayi stated that Southwest Muslims have the right to establish Shari’ah panels for personal and family matters, noting that these panels do not replace courts but serve as voluntary arbitration bodies whose decisions become binding once accepted. He criticized the absence of legal structures for Muslims in Lagos, Osun, and Ogun, calling for the recognition of Shari’ah as a fundamental right.

  1. Everyone or state has a right to d laws under d constitution that they might wish to be governed by. In Southwest, d indigenes have unilaterally voted/opted for d laws of d constitution nd nothing else. Now bringing d sharia into d mix is asking for two opposing laws within one state. It's constitutionally inadvisable. If dis were to be so, u then did Kwara state nd Emir oppose d isese people from practicing their faith nd even went as far as locking d adherents of dat faith in cells. What's good for d goose should be good for d gander. If u will not allow dis in ur Muslim dominated states, y try pushing it down our throat in d southwest?
