The Lagos State Judiciary has granted a one-week Easter holiday for its employees.
The Chief Judge of Lagos State, Justice Kazeem Alogba, approved a break for court staff to celebrate Easter from April 7 to April 14, according to a statement issued on Tuesday.
Workers were due to start work on April 17, according to a statement signed by the Acting Chief Registrar, Mr Tajudeen Elias, and dated March 13, but made accessible to journalists on Tuesday.
According to the statement, throughout the Easter holiday, each judge will deal with all urgent applications connected to any substantive cause already assigned to him/her.

“Any urgent application, the substantive cause of which has not already been assigned will be dealt with by the judge to whom the application is specifically assigned.
“Notwithstanding the provision of Order 49, Rule 4 any cause or matter may be heard by a judge during the period of the Easter vacation where such a cause or matter is urgent, provided that the condition prescribed by Order 49 Rule 5 shall be observed and complied with,” it said.
