Governor Sanwo-Olu Commissions Deputy Sheriff Warehouse in Ikorodu to Enhance Judicial Efficiency








Ikorodu, Lagos — May 2, 2025 — In a move to strengthen judicial processes and protect assets tied to ongoing litigation, Lagos State Governor, Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu, CON, today commissioned the newly constructed Deputy Sheriff Warehouse in Ikorodu.

The state-of-the-art facility is designed to provide a secure, organized, and accountable environment for storing properties seized or involved in court cases, especially those under appeal or awaiting final judgment.

Governor Sanwo-Olu, speaking at the commissioning, highlighted the challenges previously faced due to poor storage practices, lack of documentation, and mismanagement of sensitive case-related items. He noted that the new warehouse was created to correct those inefficiencies.

“This facility was built to securely store and protect properties tied up in court cases, especially those still undergoing appeal or waiting for final rulings. In the past, these items were often mishandled or lacked proper documentation. With the warehouse, they’ll be kept safe, professionally managed, and easily traceable until the courts reach a final decision,” the Governor stated.

Equipped with modern security features, a digital documentation system, and structured access for authorised personnel, the warehouse is expected to streamline judicial processes, reduce backlogs, and eliminate confusion regarding the custody of disputed assets.

Governor Sanwo-Olu emphasized that the facility aligns with his administration’s broader vision for institutional reform, transparency, and respect for the rule of law.

“Lagos will always strive to set the pace. We are building systems that reflect our values — transparency, accountability, and a deep respect for the rule of law. This is another step toward a more efficient, equitable, and respected judicial process in our state,” he added.

The event was attended by officials from the Ministry of Justice, representatives of the Lagos State Judiciary, law enforcement agencies, and key stakeholders in the legal community.
