Ekiti Chief Judge Escapes Death As Court Wall Collapses On Him

Ekiti State Chief Judge, Justice Oyewole Adeyeye, on Wednesday, escaped death when a section of the state high court complex collapsed on him while in the office.

Gatekeepers News reports that Justice Adeyeye is said to be currently receiving medical attention at an undisclosed hospital in the state.

According to report, the judge was still in his chamber when the incident happened around close of work on Wednesday.

The incident may not be unconnected with structural deficit worsened by the torrential rainfall.

Although no life was lost during the collapse, the Chief Judge reportedly sustained serious injury as a section of the office collapsed on him.

According to reports, it took serious efforts from workers before the judge was rescued from the rubble.

Meanwhile, a visit to the Registrar office to get further details did not yield result as the registrar through a staff member asked journalists to return later.
