The Governor of Lagos State, Babajide Olusola Sanwo-Olu, during a dinner with Justice Kudirat Motonmori Olatokunbo Kekere Ekun, the Chief Justice of Nigeria, acknowledged the important roles she has played as a noble daughter of Lagos State and a reputable personality in Nigeria’s law making body.
Sanwo-Olu said “As the second woman ever to hold the position of Chief Justice of Nigeria, Justice Kekere-Ekun embodies a source of pride for every Lagosian. Her exemplary leadership serves as a guiding light for women and young girls across Nigeria, demonstrating that excellence transcends gender.
We take great pride in our city’s ability to nurture some of the most outstanding legal talents, both among practitioners and judges.
Under the progressive leadership of past governors, Lagos has pioneered significant judicial reforms that have established a benchmark for the entire country.
We honor Justice Kekere-Ekun, her extraordinary journey, and the promising future she is shaping for both our judiciary and our nation.”
