The duty and business of the courts can be primarily summed up to involve, the administration of justice. The great philosopher, Plato in his wisdom, echoed these words that will form a fulcrum of this discourse, and they are: “The worst form of justice is pretended justice.” In order to circumvent pretended justice and actualize actual justice, we ought to follow the steps of the aphorism of the learned English jurist, Lord Hewart, who stated that: “It is not merely of some importance but is of fundamental importance that justice should not only be done, but should manifestly and undoubtedly be seen to be done”, this was held in the famous case of Rex v. Sussex Justices, The above emphasizes the need for the visibility of justice it also adds that, justice is done when the architecture and manifestation of it appeals to the senses of those who behold and come in contact with it.
