Renowned Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Anthony Malik SAN, has penned a deeply touching birthday message to his friend, colleague, and due process advocate, Maxwell Opara, describing him as “serious-minded, committed, focused, determined, and profoundly humane.”
Reflecting on their shared journey in the legal profession, Malik recounted late-night sessions spent dissecting constitutional arguments, spirited debates over jurisprudence, and moments of laughter that lightened the weight of legal battles.
He praised Opara’s dedication to justice, recalling his “resolve to advocate for procedural justice not as mere rhetoric, but as a lived mission.”
“Maxwell, your high regard for me has always humbled me, my respect for you is equal,”
Malik wrote, celebrating not just Opara’s brilliance as a lawyer but also his rare humanity.
He prayed for wisdom, courage, and divine clarity to continue guiding Opara’s path, declaring that “the bar is richer for your existence, and the cause of due process is stronger because you walk with conviction.”
Anthony Malik SAN, wishes Max, a year of new victories, abundant grace, and enduring laughter, calling him “a brother whose life illuminates the profession and inspires all who know him.”
