I am pleased to endorse Mr. Chukwuka Ikwuazom, SAN, for the position of President of the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA).
I have known Chukwuka for some years now and in our personal relationship, he has shown honesty, integrity, character, charisma, empathy and respect in his dealings with people. I also closely monitored his exceptional leadership as Chairman of the NBA Lagos Branch, where he led with unequalled distinction, pioneering and implementing transformative policies and practices which have now been adopted by branches across the country.
He revitalized the Branch’s Continuing Legal Education (CLE) committee and introduced Knowledge Sharing Sessions, both programs significantly enhanced the capacity of lawyers. It is my belief that Chukwuka has the relentless and dogged courage to drive the change that the NBA needs and he would lead a revigoured, transformed, renewed, forward thinking, proactive, welfare-centered, young lawyers-empowered, collaborative, government-respected, global-outlooked Bar that all Nigerian lawyers would be proud of.
