Bulkachuwa bows out as court of appeal president
Speaking at the valedictory session in honour of the outgoing Justice, the Nigerian Bar Association President, Pual Usoro, SAN, said the life of Mrs Bulkachuwa reminded one of what the Nigerian girl- child and indeed women can achieve if given the chance and opportunity.
” The first female Justice of the Court of Appeal was Justice Aloma Mukhtar, elevated to supreme court and Chief Justice of Nigeria. The NBA president said Mrs Bulkachuwa abandoned a secure and comfortable life of a Chief Judge of a state and joined the ranks of Justices of the Court of Appeal. ” These are qualities that appear to be in short supply amongst our public office holders who pretend to pontificate against and lecture our judicial officers.” It is our judicial officers in the mild of Bulkachuwa who have the right to pontificate and lecture public officers on patriotism and duty to country,” he said.
