The swearing-in ceremony, which was held in the Council Chambers of the State House, followed the confirmation of Justice Kekere-Ekun by the Senate last Wednesday.

The ceremony was also witnessed by three of Kekere-ekun’s predecessors, including Justice Alooma Muktar, Justice Mahmud Mohammed, Justice Walter Onnoghen, and Justice Olukayode Ariwoola.
