A distinguished delegation from the Nigerian Bar Association Women Forum (NBAWF), led by Chairperson Chinyere Okorocha, recently had the honour of visiting Mfon Usoro, a life bencher and past chairperson of the NBA Section on Business Law, to formally invest her as a patron of the forum.

The ceremony included the traditional robbing of Mrs Usoro with the Forum’s signature pink sash and rosette, followed by her formal office plaque presentation.

In her gracious remarks, Mrs. Usoro welcomed the delegation and commended the NBAWF under Mrs. Okorocha’s leadership for its remarkable achievements in elevating the association to new heights. She acknowledged the challenges ahead and expressed her readiness to contribute her expertise and support to the forum’s ongoing efforts.

Mrs. Usoro’s profound wisdom and strategic insight, honed over a distinguished career, are expected to play a pivotal role in guiding the NBAWF’s future. Her mentorship will undoubtedly inspire the Forum’s upcoming initiatives to advance women’s professional development in the legal profession and empower female lawyers to achieve tremendous success.

Key officials of the NBA Women Forum, including Lagos State Lead Adefowoke Ayo-Ponle, Ikeja Branch Facilitator Kemi Afesojaye, and Head of Media & Publicity Onyinye Ukegbu, accompanied Mrs Okorocha on this significant visit.

The appointment of esteemed patrons like Mrs. Usoro remains a cornerstone of the current administration’s strategy, ensuring the forum’s sustainability and continued growth. With the mentorship and support of these influential figures, the NBA Women Forum is committed to building a vibrant and empowered community of female lawyers.
