Today, we celebrate not only your success but the dawn of a new chapter in your lives as you step into the noble calling of the legal profession.
To all our newly called wigs, this moment is far more than a ceremonial rite. It is the reward of years of sacrifice, countless sleepless nights, unyielding resilience, and unwavering hope. Each wig and gown you wear is a badge of honor, but also a weight of responsibility, an enduring reminder that truth, justice, and service must remain the compass of your journey.
As you embrace this calling, always remember that the practice of law extends beyond books, courts, and judgments. At its core, it is about people, their struggles, their rights, and their hopes. Never lose sight of the humanity behind every brief, every case, and every decision.
Integrity must be your anchor, humility your strength, and service your guiding light. Hold on firmly to the values that carried you this far, and let your passion for justice illuminate every path you tread. The world of law can be demanding, but it is also deeply rewarding for those who remain steadfast, compassionate, and courageous.
Congratulations, dear new wigs. The world is waiting for your brilliance. Go forth and shine boldly.
With pride and warm regards,
Prof. Foluke Dada-Lawanson
