The Union further stated that his emergence is a testament of his selfless service over the years to the development of the Legal Profession.
The Union expressed this in a letter written to the IBA President, signed by the Union’s President, Emeka J. P. Obegolu dated 13th January, 2021 which was made available to TheNigeriaLawyer.
“I, and my colleagues on the Executive Committee, as well as the Secretariat leadership of PALU, are very delighted at the formal announcement of your ascension to the Presidency of the IBA! We heartily congratulate you, and the entire leadership and membership of the IBA for bestowing this singular honour upon you, and, through you, to lawyers of African descent throughout the world.
“Having worked with and observed you over the years, this is a befitting tribute to the decades of selfless service that you have given to our profession, and that you have contributed to the rule of law, and human and peoples’ rights, in Zimbabwe, across Africa and globally, which includes – although is not limited to – almost three decades of service to and through the IBA. You are a true embodiment of the principles, values and life of a model lawyer”, he stated.
Meanwhile, the Union has expressed its commitment and willingness to support the administration of the IBA President and further stressed that its members will participate actively in the affairs of IBA.
“As you know, we were glad to actively support and promote your candidature in the course of last year; and we will be similarly glad to actively support your presidency and your presidential plan/ vision over the next two years. We will take this opportunity to be more active, and to encourage our institutional and individual members to be more active in the IBA. We will also ensure to include you and the IBA more robustly in our initiatives and activities”, the statement added.
