The leadership of the Young Lawyers Forum (YLF), NBA Abuja Branch yesterday Wednesday, 7 July 2021 paid a courtesy call on Chief Joe-Kyari Gadzama, SAN at his Abuja office, J-K Gadzama Court.
Led by its Chairman, Mr. David B. Stephen, the YLF Abuja Executives commended the learned silk for his ardent and visible contribution to the development of young lawyers within the branch and the legal profession in Nigeria, notably through the Annual Hon. Justice Chukwudifu Oputa (Rtd) Mentorship and Training Programme for young lawyers organized by the learned silk for years now.
They prayed for God’s continuous blessing and provisions to enable the learned silk to even do more than he is doing now.

On his part, the learned silk appreciated the team for honouring him with their visit and the encomiums rendered.
