The decision followed the recommendations of the State Advisory Council on the Prerogative of Mercy, chaired by the State Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice, Dr Olukayode Ajulo, SAN.

According to a statement made available to LEADERSHIP in Akure, the state capital by his Chief Press Secretary, Prince Ebenezer Adeniyan, the decision was made to commemorate Governor Aiyedatiwa’s swearing-in on Monday, reflecting his commitment to reformative justice and humane governance.

Adeniyan said, “As part of this initiative, the Governor has ordered the outright release of 8 individuals who were previously incarcerated.

“Additionally, 15 condemned inmates who were sentenced to death by hanging have had their sentences commuted to various prison terms, while 20 other convicts serving life imprisonment have also had their sentences adjusted to more lenient terms.
