 LAGOS ATTORNEY-GENERAL PAYS TRIBUTE TO LATE JUSTICE SOTUMINU AT VALEDICTORY COURT SESSION


The Lagos State Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice, Mr. Lawal Pedro, SAN, on Tuesday, addressed the legal community in a solemn valedictory court session to honour the life and legacy of former Chief Judge of Lagos State, late Hon. Justice (Dr.) Ibitola A. Sotuminu (OON), held at the Lagos State High Court, Osborne Foreshore, Ikoyi.


Mr. Pedro highlighted her remarkable dedication to advancing the judiciary, gender equality, and legal reform. He also praised her philanthropic efforts through the founding of the Home Concept Foundation for Elderly Support (HOMECOF), and her national recognitions, including the Officer of the Order of the Niger (OON) in 2008.


Pedro urged everyone to draw from her example, stating that every judge present should remember that integrity on the Bench is not an ornament but an obligation. 


"Let every legal practitioner strive not only for competence but for compassion. Let those in public service recognise that power is transient, but legacy is enduring; and it is shaped, as that of Honourable Justice Sotuminu was, by how we serve others.”


In closing, the AG emphasised that it is not enough to merely eulogise the former Chief Judge, late Hon. Justice Sotuminu's achievements; her values must also be internalised. 


He further urged the legal community to walk in the path she carved with such grace and resolve, noting that her legacy should continue to inspire a judiciary that is fearless, faithful, and fair.


Mr. Lawal Pedro (SAN) extended his heartfelt condolences to the family of the late Justice, the Judiciary, the Nigerian Bar, and all who had the privilege of working with her. “May her memory remain a blessing and a guiding light to us all,” he concluded.
