Justice Muyodeen Abdul-Raheem Tejumade, Hon. Justice George Alfred Akingbola, Hon. Justice Balogun Adegboyega Ganiu, Hon. Justice Badejo-Okusanya Yewande Jokotola, Hon. Justice Ojuromi Nalirat Olayinka Oluwatosin and Hon. Justice Adewale Russel Musiliu.

“The nine were part of the 13 judges recently appointed into the Lagos State High Court, a feat made more remarkable by the fact that the number is the highest ever recorded from the university at any given time in history.”

While congratulating the new judges, the Vice Chancellor, Professor Ibiyemi Olatunji-Bello, noted that an appointment into such an exalted position was not a mean feat but a testament to their hard work, sacrifice and dedication to the noble profession – Law, as well as their impactful contribution to the state judiciary.

Olatunji-Bello attributed the feat of the judges to, among other things, the solid foundation of excellence at the Faculty of Law of LASU upon which they built their respective careers.

She urged them to be above board and serve with the fear of God in their new positions.
