Council Of Legal Education Gives Birth To New Lawyers Today: New Wigs Welcome To The Bar

The Nigerian Council Of Legal Education, the body responsible for the training of Lawyers through the Nigerian Law School to qualify them to practice as both Barristers and Solicitors of the Supreme Court of Nigeria, is today  giving birth to new set of lawyers.  Spending five (5) years at the University (if you had no extra year) passing through some irksome Lecturers who never wanted you to graduate; got, saved or borrowed money to go to law school, got certified by the Body of Benchers as a fit and proper person, sat for the Bar Finals, and God helped you to be among the less than half  who passed the Bar Finals, and today you join the honourable Nigerian Bar. It wasn't easy but God did it for you and am so happy to have you join us here. I welcome all new wigs to Bar BUT the journey starts NOW!
