Gov. Oluwarotimi Akeredolu (SAN) of Ondo State, on Tuesday, described the judiciary as a cardinal pillar that carries and sustains democratic institutions.
Akeredolu made this assertion at the inauguration of the Acting Chief Judge of Ondo State, Justice Olanrewaju Akeredolu in Akure.
He said that the judiciary, according to the constitution, is saddled with the responsibility of dispensing justice without fear or favour.
