Roseline Ukeje

Roseline Ukeje (born 5 January 1943) is a Nigerian jurist who served as the first female Chief Judge of the High Court of Nigeria. Quotes The judiciary must continue to inspire confidence by ensuring that justice is dispensed fairly, impartially and without delay. Justice Ukeje emphasizes that public trust in the courts depends on judges delivering justice fairly, independently, and efficiently. The legal profession remains the last hope of the common man and must therefore uphold the highest ethical standards. She reminds lawyers that their profession carries a responsibility to protect justice and maintain integrity because many citizens depend on the courts for fairness.
