Nigerians have expressed anger at a Lagos-based ‘lawyer’ and critic, Adeola Samuel-Ilori, after he was disowned by the Nigerian Bar Association.
Lawyers and activists, who took to different social media platforms, said they were also shocked that Samuel-Ilori refused to respond to the disclaimer after several days.
He was also said to have filed civil suits in court and claimed on several forums and in the media that he was a lawyer. Charles Afolabi, a lawyer whose NBA seal was used in a suit filed earlier by Samuel-Ilori, said he also needed some explanation from the man.The General Secretary of the NBA, Jonathan Gunu Taidi, said on Saturday that the association had not changed its stance.“If you are a lawyer and your name is not in the database that we have, then where will you get it from, because our records are derived from the Supreme Court? Whatever manual records they have, they transferred to us.
