I extend warm greetings to the Chairman, Executive Committee, and the entire members of the Nigerian Bar Association, Owerri Branch, on the occasion of your 2025 Law Week. The theme, “Reshaping Legal Practice and Justice Delivery: Charting the Future of the Profession,” could not be more timely.

Across the country, we continue to grapple with delay in justice delivery and poor remuneration for legal practitioners. These challenges have weakened the system and, sadly, affected the earnings and morale of many lawyers. When justice is delayed, the ripple effect touches everyone—especially those who have committed their lives to upholding it.

Now more than ever, we must stand together to implement the new Remuneration Order under the Legal Practitioners Act. It’s a key step towards ensuring value for our work, improving our income, and securing the future of our noble profession.

I wish you all a successful and impactful Law Week.
