Ondo state governor, Lucky Aiyedatiwa, has signed a new law that allows the number of judges in the state judiciary to be increased from 24 to 35.
The new law is the first time the number of Judges in the State would be increased since the State was created in 1976.
Governor Aiyedatiwa, who shortly after he signed the amended bill into law, said it was a testament to his administration’s dedication to strengthening the fabric of the society as well as his commitment to justice, equality, and the rule of law.
He stated that enhancing the capacity of the judiciary would empower the citizens, foster a more just and equitable society, and enhance the administration of justice in the state.

He said: “As I sign this Bill into Law today, we not only expand access to justice but also fortify the foundation of our democracy. By increasing the number of Judges, we are not only reducing the workload of the existing judges but also enabling the Judiciary to tackle the backlog of cases.
“We equally ensure timely and faster administration of justice, thereby reducing congestion in our courts. We demonstrate that our State is a beacon of progress, where the rights and dignity of all citizens are cherished and protected,” he added
Chief Judge of the state, Justice Olusola Odusola, said the new law would help reduce the workload of the current judges.
