This is contained in a statement issued by him which was made available to TheNigeriaLawyer titled “EXCERPT FROM THE ARTICLE ‘A COMMUNICATION – FRIENDLY BAR’; ABOUT KUNLE EDUN”.
According to him, he noted that the projected ideals of Mr. Kunle from the outset are anchored on welfarism and responsiveness stating that he always rises up to the occasion on any case of assault against Lawyers.
“It was clear from the outset that Kunle Edun’s core agenda for NBA publicity activities is premised on welfarism and responsiveness. He sings that tune into my ears everytime, many times. And he walks his talks in that respect. There is hardly any case of assault of colleagues that he hears of that he does not react to.”
Besides, he stated that working with him has been a “life time privilege” and noting that he is always ahead being the Head.
“Learning from him while working with him has been a lifetime privilege. In going about our job, I try to match his diligence and sense of duty, but as a Head, he is always ahead – dragging me along with his raw passion for the Bar and its members. He is dedicated beyond the call of duty.” He said.
Furthermore, he noted that it was Kunle Edun that coined the term “NBA Publicity Team”.
“It was Kunle Edun that coined the term ‘ NBA Publicity Team’ and made me an equal Partner in the task of engendering a positive public perception for the Bar and effectively disseminating information to our members.” He said.
Also, he stated that the publicity team was made relevant as a result of Mr. Kunle’s efforts.
“For the first time and to Mr. Edun’s credit, the office of the Assistant Publicity Secretary was quite useful and it is therefore to his further credit that the Assistant Publicity Secretary’ s office is the only one young lawyers may occupy following the 2019 constitutional amendment that scrapped some other Assistant National offices.”
He further noted that Mr. Kunle is a lover of rich ideas and stays up to defend such ideas.
“He is a lover of rich ideas and he is secured to let the ideas grow and when they grow, he is happy to glow behind and allow the owner of the idea to take the kudos.
“When the ideas come with blames, he is happy to keep the owner of the idea behind and take the knocks for allowing the idea to grow. Many times, he has had to do this for me. My boss is a leader.” He said.
