Among those elevated are Folashade, daughter of legal luminary, Afe Babalola; human rights activist, Kayode Ajulo; Funmi Falana who is the wife to Femi Falana, Felix Ota Offia, among others.
The committee headed by the Chief Justice of Nigeria, Justice Olukayode Ariwoola, confirmed the appointment of the new SAN which comprised 57 legal practitioners and one from the academic.
According to a statement by the Chief Registrar of the Supreme Court/Secretary of the LPPC, Hajo Sarki-Bello, the new SANs were appointed as a result of their excellence in the law profession and in the adherence to the code of ethics of the profession.
The statement said the LPPC meeting considered four different petitions against some of the applicants and dismissed them for lacking in merit.
It further stated that the new senior advocates would on Monday, November 27, be inaugurated by the CJN at the Supreme Court complex.
