Former Vice-President, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, has commended Delta State Governor, Ifeanyi Okowa, for granting full autonomy to the judiciary in the state in consonance with the law. Abubakar, in a tweet on his verified handle @atiku, said the Delta State governor had demonstrated the truest essence of leadership by the implementation. The 2019 presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) also urged other governors to adopt Okowa’s initiative on judicial autonomy. He said: “By granting autonomy to his state’s judiciary, Gov. @IAOkowa has demonstrated the truest essence of leadership: providing solutions for the benefit of the people and society. Delta State will be better for it. I hope that others will adopt this trailblazing initiative.” Okowa said in Asaba on Tuesday that the state was ready to begin the process of implementing full autonomy for the judiciary with the signing of Judiciary Autonomy Law in January 2021 and the setting up of the relevant committees by the chief judge.
