“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.”

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.
