The Kebbi State Governor, Dr Nasir Idris, Kauran Gwandu, has sworn in four new High Court Judges and two Khadi in the state.
Administering the oath of office and oath of allegiance to formalize their positions at Government House in Birnin Kebbi on Friday, the governor urged the appointees to bring their wealth of experience to bear.
While congratulating the new judges, Gov. Idris expressed optimism that they would deliver on their assigned responsibilities in view of the fact that he had worked with some of them before.
He described the swearing-in of six new judges as a rare privilege and charged them to put in their best in delivering justice to the people of Kebbi State and Nigeria at large towards a crime-free society.
The governor assured the readiness of his administration to ensure prompt payment of salaries and welfare of Judges in the state.
Idris noted that he had inherited and subsequently approved a pending N300 million for the procurement of official vehicles for Judges.
The four Judges included Hassan Kwaido, Halima Umar Ibrahim, Lauratu Jagwadeji Suru, and Muhammad Nurudeen, while the two Khadi were Kabiru Aliyu, SAN, and Atiku Muhammad Bello under the Sharia Court of Appeal.
