The Chief Judge of Delta State, Justice Marshall Umukoro, has inaugurated the Osubi Magistrate Court in Okpe Local Government Council, with the aim to provide access to justice in the area and surrounding communities.

At the formal opening ceremony, Justice Umukoro noted the Osubi Magistrate Court has the advantage of preventing recourse to self-help by aggrieved members of the community, which was capable of causing breakdown of law and order.

He designated the Magistrate’s district to comprise Osubi, Okuokoko, and Okuikpehre communities. The others are Ugolo and Okoroghwe communities.
