Seyi Makinde, the governor of Oyo State, has sworn in Justice Iyabo Yerima as the state’s acting chief judge on Monday.
The Governor promised that his administration will continue to cooperate with the other branches of government to guarantee that Oyo State residents could be proud of their government.
After Justice Muntar Abimbola resigned from the bench with great honors a few days back, Justice Yerima’s swearing-in as the new acting chief judge became necessary.
Speaking during the event held in the Executive Chamber of the Secretariat in Ibadan, Governor Makinde promised that his administration will provide her all the resources she needs to carry out her duties with diligence.
However, the governor affirmed his trust in the abilities of the new Acting Chief Judge to guide the state’s judicial system.
He explained that when re-elected under Omituntun 2.0, his administration will even do more to reduce the infrastructure deficit of the Judiciary and complete the work of modernizing the arm of government.
