Dear Chief Adegboyega Solomon Awomolo, SAN,
Congratulations on your well-deserved elevation to the position of Chair, Body of Benchers.
Promotion comes neither from the East, West or South but from the Lord God Almighty. Psalms 75/6-7:
“For promotion cometh neither from the east,
nor from the west, nor from the south.
But God is the judge:
he putteth down one, and setteth up another..”
Permit me sir to draw your attention to the need for Benchers to revert to the Benchers mode of dressing, which is to wear a tie within the ceremonial benches robes and not the SAN’s cravat bands as is being worn presently by some benchers.
The Lord grant you Solomonic wisdom for navigation of the issues which concern our noble profession.
Yours Sincerely,
Ikeazor Akaraiwe, SAN
