This directive was announced in a circular signed by Rasaq O. Davies, Deputy Chief Registrar (Admin) in Ikeja, on behalf of the Honourable Chief Judge of Lagos State. The notice, made available on Wednesday, emphasizes that the new policy applies only to non-litigation affidavits and excludes those intended for court proceedings at the High Court.
“I have the directive of the Honourable Chief Judge of LagosState to inform you that effective from 1st of June 2025, all General Affidavits… excluding affidavits used for litigation at the High Court shall be generated exclusively through the LagosComis Platform,” the circular stated.
The LagosComis platform, accessible via http://lagoscomis.lagosjudiciary.gov.ng, already supports a range of judicial services. With this expansion, it is expected to simplify affidavit processing, enhance transparency, and reduce bureaucratic delays.
To support the transition, the judiciary has also published step-by-step guidelines for using the e-Affidavit system on the platform.
This digital shift marks another step in the Lagos State Judiciary’s broader efforts to modernize service delivery and improve public access to essential legal documentation.
