I extend my heartfelt congratulations to Uchenna Ogunedo Akingbade on her well-deserved and historic election as the Chairman-elect of the NBA Lagos Branch. Her emergence as the first female Chairman of the Branch is both inspiring and symbolic and a bold step towards the realisation of #ABarWithoutBarriers. I am confident that under her leadership, the Branch will advance in inclusivity, innovation and professional excellence.
I also warmly congratulate the other elected officers:
•James Olaseni Sonde, Vice Chairman-elect
•Kelechukwu Uzoka, Secretary-elect
•Ngozi Victor, Assistant Secretary-elect
•Ogechi Olisa-Mokelu, Treasurer-elect
•Rita Nwokocha, Social Secretary-elect
•Oliver Osagie Omoredia, Publicity Secretary-elect
•Bennita Nneka Olejeme, Welfare Secretary-elect
•Igwebuike Michael Ikechukwu, Provost-elect
I trust that the new executives-elect will work together as a formidable team and build on the successes of the Olabisi Makanjuola-led 2023–2025 executives. Your election reflects the confidence reposed in you by members of the Branch, and I trust you will discharge your duties with diligence, integrity and vision.
Congratulations once again. The work begins, and may your tenure truly deliver a Bar without barriers.
Warm regards,
HAROLD UKU
