FULL LIST: LPPC Elevates 72 Lawyers To Senior Advocate Of Nigeria Rank

The Legal Practitioner’s Privilege Committee (LPPC) on Friday announced the emergence of 72 new senior advocates of Nigeria.

A total of 137 lawyers were shortlisted for the rank in 2020 — with 116 advocate applicants and 21 academic applicants. Of the 137 candidates shortlisted, 72 were successful, while 60 did not make the cut.

Popular among the lawyers who made the list is Bolaji Owasanoye, chairman of the Independent Corrupt Practices And Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC).

Owosanoye was shortlisted as one of the academic applicants, following his standing as a professor of law across major universities across the world.

The 2020 list of successful applicants doubles the numbers recorded for 2019 when Festus Keyamo, minister of state for Niger Delta; and Akinlolu Osinbajo, brother to the vice-president and the longest-serving attorney general in Ogun state history, were among only 30 successful candidates.
