The Governor made the appeal at the swearing-in ceremony of Justice Esohe Ikpomwen as the substantive Chief Judge of Edo State.
Mr Obaseki noted that the strengthened collaboration would enable his administration achieve its developmental goals for Edo State.
The newly inaugurated Chief Judge assured the Governor that the state would begin to experience speedy dispensation of justice.
