Ogun State Governor Dapo Abiodun has sworn in five new judges for the State High Court, bringing the total to 49.
The ceremony took place on Wednesday at the Executive Chambers in Oke-Mosan, Abeokuta.
The new judges are Luqman Oke, Adebimpe Obienu, Fatima Daudu, Rafiat Kadiri and Oludotun Osho.
Abiodun told them to be fair and independent, saying their rulings must not be swayed by politics, personal ties or money.
He said the judiciary is the last hope of ordinary people and urged the judges to protect citizens' rights.
The governor also said 49 newly built duplexes at the President Muhammadu Buhari Estate on Kobape Road, Abeokuta, will be given to judges as part of efforts to improve their welfare.
