With a heavy heart, the NBA is saddened to learn about the shocking death of our dearest friend and colleague, Mr. Mufutau Mabokunrinje Adewale Sanni, Esq., the pioneer Chairman of the Eti-Osa Branch of the Nigerian Bar Association and a complete Barman, whose sudden departure today 12th of December, 2024, is a huge loss to all of us.

Mr. Sanni was a cherished friend and dedicated supporter. His leadership, which has laid the foundation for the Eti-Osa Branch, was purpose driven , with integrity, and service to the Bar.

His loss is not just a blow to the Eti-Osa Branch, which he so passionately nurtured, but to the entire Nigerian Bar Association. The memories of his selflessness, professionalism, and excellence will remain a guiding light for us all.

On behalf of the entire Nigerian Bar Association, I extend my deepest condolences to his beloved family, the members of the Eti-Osa Branch as we mourn his loss. I pray that the Almighty grants us the strength to bear this immense loss.

May his gentle soul rest in perfect peace.
Mazi Afam Osigwe, SAN

President, Nigerian Bar Association
