I extend my warmest congratulations to Mrs. Oyinkansola Badejo-Okusanya SAN the President-Elect of the Nigerian Bar Association (the 33rd President of the Nigerian Bar Association), and the entire team of newly elected National Officers on your successful election to lead our great Association.

As you prepare to assume office, you inherit the responsibility of leading one of Africa’s most influential professional bodies at a pivotal moment in our nation’s history. You will be leading Africa’s largest Bar Association. I am confident that, working together as one team, you will provide the visionary and courageous leadership required to strengthen the Bar and enhance its relevance both nationally and internationally.

This is also a unique opportunity to heal the Bar, bridge existing divides, and foster a renewed culture of inclusion, mutual respect, and collegiality. Elections naturally generate differing interests and opinions, but once the ballots have been counted, our collective responsibility must be to place the unity, integrity, and prestige of the Nigerian Bar Association above all other considerations.

I pray that the Almighty God grants you wisdom, courage, strength, humility, and good health to discharge the responsibilities entrusted to you. May your tenure be distinguished by visionary leadership, institutional reforms, professional excellence, unity, and a renewed commitment to higher standards and ideals.

Once again, congratulations to the President-Elect and Congratulations also to the newly elected National Officers. I wish you a successful, impactful, and memorable tenure.

Sincerely,

Uju Agomoh PhD
