A 20-year-old identified as Esther Chukwuemeka has been tagged the youngest Nigerian lawyer to be called to Bar. The young lady was called to the bar on Wednesday, July 28, according to Barrister NG.
The girl, from Okigwe, Imo State, finished her secondary school at the age of 13 and got admission into ABSU, but the school denied her admission citing that she’s underage. Her father then sent her to India to study Law and she graduated in flying colours after which she returned to Nigeria for Law School. She wrote the Bar final exam and was among the successful students.
Esther Chukwuemeka has now been called to bar as a solicitor and advocate of the Supreme Court of Nigeria. The call to bar ceremony was held from the 27th of July to the 29th of July 2021. Parents and visitors were banned from attending due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
