Justice Adeyeye’s journey in the legal field spanned decades. Born in 1960 in Araromi Ugbesi, Ekiti East Local Government Area, he joined the legal profession in 1986 after being called to the bar.
His career began as a state counsel in the civil service of old Ondo State before he moved to Ekiti in 1996, where he became part of the Judiciary Service Commission.
Elevated to the Ekiti State High Court bench in 2002, he went on to serve on multiple election petition tribunals over the years, bringing his expertise to the state judiciary.
Justice Adeyeye was sworn in as Chief Judge on October 11, 2021, under the administration of former Governor Kayode Fayemi.
