Gov. Sule Lamido of Jigawa has said that collaboration between the executive and the judiciary will facilitate good governance and enhance political stability of Nigeria.
Lamido made the remark during the swearing in of the state?s Acting Chief Judge, Justice Aminu Sabo, in Dutse on Friday.
He described the judiciary as a pillar of democracy, adding that achieving transparency in democratic governance for the common good would require the executive, legislature and judiciary working in harmony.
The governor said that the workings of the judiciary had been enhanced after his administration had executed various projects and refrained from undue interference.
?I know you are a man of integrity and you should put your wealth of experience in promoting good working relations with us to move the state forward,? Lamido said.
The acting Chief Judge was appointed following the retirement of Justice Muntari Adamu, who attained the age of 65 years.
Sabo was born in 1960 in Ringim Local Government Area of the state and had his primary and secondary education between 1967 and 1978.
In 1984, Sabo obtained a degree in law from the Usman Danfodio University, Sokoto, and attended the Nigerian Law School, Lagos in 1985.
Until his appointment, he was the most senior judge in the state.
