Nigeria’s Legal Practitioners Privileges Committee has stripped
a Senior Advocate of Nigeria, B. I. Nwofor, of his title as
senior advocate.
The decision which was taken at the Committee’s 126th general
meeting held on June 22 was contained in a letter from the
privileges committee signed by the Chief Registrar of the
Supreme Court, Ahmed Salleh.
“The Legal Practitioner’s Privileges Committee at its 126th
General Meeting held on June 22nd 2017, considered extensively
the complaint filled by the court of appeal of Nigeria against
B. E . I. Nwofor, Esq. A Senior Advocate of Nigeria with his
response to same and all material facts and have decided that B.
E. I. Nwofor Esq; a Senior Advocate of Nigeria conducted himself
in a manner unbefitting of a holder of the esteemed rank of
Senior Advocate of Nigeria.
“By reason of the foregoing, the rank of Senior Advocate of
Nigeria _(including all its privileges)_ has been withdrawn from
B. E. I Nwofor, forthwith,” the statement said.
It was not immediately clear what the allegations were against
Mr. Nwofor.
