At the 2025 NBA-Young Lawyers Forum (YLF) Calabar Summit, Oyinkansola Badejo-Okusanya, FCIArb, a respected Partner at ALP NG & Co., delivered a powerful goodwill message that resonated deeply with the Summit’s theme of transformation in legal practice.
Addressing young lawyers and professionals in attendance, she celebrated the forum as a space for bold ideas, forward-thinking innovation, and principled growth.
“The future of legal practice belongs to those bold enough to innovate and disciplined enough to evolve,” she stated in her message — a sentiment that encapsulated the core of her address.
Badejo-Okusanya expressed her honor in contributing to the Summit, particularly on the topic “Redefining Legal Practice in a Digital Age.” She highlighted how young lawyers are shaping a new legal landscape — one that is digitally fluent, ethically grounded, and future-facing.
“This generation of legal professionals is not only equipped to lead change but is already doing so — with confidence, creativity, and conscience,” she noted.
She lauded the leadership of the NBA-YLF Calabar for creating a platform that nurtures innovation and career growth, noting that it perfectly aligns with the core values of her firm, ALP NG & Co., where “innovation meets integrity”.
As a passionate advocate for transformation within the legal profession, Badejo-Okusanya encouraged participants to embrace digital fluency, push boundaries, and remain anchored in ethical values.
“Innovation without integrity is short-lived. What we build must last — and that means grounding it in purpose, professionalism, and people,” she emphasized.
