Olusola Alexander Oke: As You Become A Senior Advocate Of Nigeria

I do this for two reasons. On the one part, to magnetize inspiration from their legal practice and commit to memory, how to climb the same pecking order to the capstone and vertex of my legal career, just like they did. On the other part, I read the fact of the state of legal nuisance which befell some lawyers in reported cases. I likewise do this not to make contemptuous fun of their legal woes but to coxswain my legal practice and not fall into the abyss which felled those who were called before me. Among the recital which interest me about legal practitioners, who distinguishingly made it. I envy the story of Chief Olusola Alexander Oke and would proudly share it among my compeer. “Do you know Chief Olusola Oke? I would examine them- he established his law firm and ventured into private practice after completing the mandatory NYSC, became the NBA secretary and later chairman of Okitipupa branch, a former national legal adviser of the PDP and remains a force to reckon with in Ondo state politics.” When in 2012, he did not finish first in the gubernatorial elections in his state, I was stunned to read few days later that he was part of the lawyers who appeared at the Supreme Court to defend the People’s Democratic Party in a matter pending before the apex court. Chief Olusola Oke SAN, the story of your legal practice and political feat inspires me and I had before now adopted you as my mentor. Congratulations on your appointment as a senior advocate of Nigeria.  Kenny Tola Adeyemi writes ]]>
