President Bola Tinubu has rejoiced with renowned jurist and retired Supreme Court Justice, Emmanuel Ayoola, on his 90th birthday.
The President, in a release issued on Friday by his Media Adviser, Ajuri Ngelale, described the retired foremost justice as a trailblazer and a fine example of integrity and honour in Nigeria’s judiciary.
He said: “Justice Ayoola is among the pace-setters of the Nigerian judiciary. He is renowned for his discipline, diligence, honour, and unwavering integrity.
“He is one of those distinguished jurists whose hard work, brilliance, fortitude, and patriotism built and strengthened the Nigerian judiciary”.
President Tinubu wished the foremost justice many more years in good health.
Justice Ayoola, who retired from the Supreme Court in 2003, had served as the Chief Justice of the Gambia from 1983 to 1992 and was Vice President of the World Judges Association in 1991.
