The Nigerian Bar Association Women Forum (NBAWF) has congratulated Dr. Olugbemisola Odusote on her appointment as the first female Director-General of the Nigerian Law School.

Approved by President Bola Tinubu, the appointment makes Odusote the first woman to lead the institution since it was established in 1962.

In a statement signed by NBAWF Chairperson, Huwaila Muhammad, the forum described the appointment as a historic milestone for legal education and a major win for women in the legal profession.

The forum said Odusote’s appointment shows that competence and dedication can break long-standing gender barriers, while inspiring female lawyers and law students across the country.

NBAWF expressed confidence that her leadership would bring positive reforms to the Nigerian Law School and strengthen the legal profession.
