Governor Lucky Orimisan Aiyedatiwa of Ondo State inaugurated six newly appointed judges of the State High Court on Thursday in a swearing-in ceremony held at the Cocoa Conference Hall of the Governor’s Office in Akure.

The newly sworn-in judges are Hon. Justices Adebisi Williams Daomi, Adeola Olufunke Adegoroye, Justinah Ojufisintei Kpemi, Happiness Inumidun Demehin-Ogunbayo, Wumi Fabuluje, and Idowu Mobayonle Ogunwumiju.

During his address, Governor Aiyedatiwa hailed the event as a significant step in strengthening the judiciary and advancing the administration of justice in the state. He emphasized the importance of the appointments, marking the second large-scale judicial swearing-in during his tenure.

“This is particularly fulfilling for me, as it marks the second instance on record in our administration that appointment to the Bench of the State Judiciary would be carried out and in large number,” the Governor remarked. “These appointees have distinguished themselves in the practice of law and administration of justice in our dear state.”

Governor Aiyedatiwa acknowledged the leadership of the Chief Judge of Ondo State, Hon. Justice Segun Aiyedun Odusola, in ensuring a significant increase in the number of judges to reduce the courts’ workload. He also thanked the National Judicial Council and the newly appointed Chief Justice of Nigeria, Hon. Justice Kudirat Kekere-Ekun, for their role in facilitating the appointments.

The Governor highlighted the remarkable careers and expertise each new judge brings to the bench, commending their diligence, knowledge of the law, and commitment to justice. He emphasized that their appointments were the product of rigorous and thorough processes to ensure only the most qualified individuals are entrusted with dispensing justice in the state.

Governor Aiyedatiwa reiterated his administration’s dedication to upholding the rule of law and the independence of the judiciary, encouraging the new judges to carry out their duties with “diligence, sobriety, courage, and the fear of God.”

Earlier, the Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice of Ondo State, Dr. Olukayode Ajulo, SAN, noted the governor’s deep respect for the judiciary and strong commitment to upholding the rule of law. He emphasized the critical collaboration between the judiciary, legal profession, executive, and legislature in improving the efficiency of the state’s justice system.

Speaking on behalf of the newly appointed judges, Justice Williams Daomi pledged to uphold the judiciary’s high standards and serve as exemplary ambassadors. He assured the people of Ondo State that they would complement their colleagues’ efforts and carry out their responsibilities with diligence and dedication.
