History Has Been Made!

Congratulations to Osakwe Okey Junior and Emmanuel Nyia who also bagged first class degrees from the Faculty of Law, ESUT, together with Nuel Oji.
Osakwe Okey Junior has always stood tall in the faculty for his deep knowledge and understanding of the law, wits, great sense of humor and political pragmatism and has always been held in high regard by all and sundry in that respect.
As for Nuel Oji, well, it is said that all men are born equal but some are more equal than others. Nuel Oji is one of such. you can read my previous post on him for a better understanding of who this guy is.

Special congratulations to our very own Faculty president, Emmanuel Nyia, who despite all the challenges and distractions here and there in running the faculty affairs, he defied all odds by becoming the first faculty president to ever get a first class since the inception of the Faculty of Law, ESUT.
It should be noted that this is the first time the faculty has ever given more than one person a first class degree in the same class since 2014 (When the faculty awarded a 1st class degree to a student, for the first time, since its inception).
Congratulations to the 3 wise men (as most of us call them). More grace!.

Celebrating our first class law graduate

Can I have your attention please?

I want to tell you about one man.

His name is Gabriel Doc Nwodo. In the Faculty of Law, ESUT, some call him brainbox , lord of law, lord denning, obilade, Ben Nwabueze, and names of most of the greatest legal scholars that have every lived!

Yes! He deserves all the praise and adoration because he has proven to be one man who not only knows the law, but knows it very well.

When I entered the faculty in first year, I asked around with regards to who the academic giants were and all fingers were pointed towards his direction! I just had to associate myself with him and I thank God I did because the man Gab has been both a mentor, guardian and friend J

 He is very well known for his oratory prowess, excellent command of English and a master in the moot court as I can still vividly recall the time we went for a moot court competition at the Nnamdi Azikiwe University Awka. The organizer, Sir B.E.I Nwofor SAN, after the competition remarked that he spoke like someone that has been in the bar for more than 10 years!

He is a man that has proven himself to be one of the most principled men I have ever met in my life.

Today, the man am telling you about was AWARDED FIRST CLASS HONORS DEGREE IN LAW BY THE BOARD OF THE FACULTY OF LAW, ENUGU STATE UNIVERSITY OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY ENUGU.

He is the second person and the first guy to be ever awarded a First Class Honors by the Faculty of Law
ESUT since it's inception!

This is a great feat worthy of celebration and even the devil will testify that he deserves it!

Gab, you are a source of inspiration and a motivation to those of us in the faculty and we’ll do our best to live up to the standard which you have set in the Faculty.

Please, without much ado, let us celebrate Gabriel Doc Nwodo!!!

At the finals, we demonstrated our oratorical prowess and earned the praise of the sponsor of the competition Sir BEI NWOFOR. He eulogised us for the advocacy skills and great knowledge of the law as demonstrated by our counsel.
Unfortunately or fortunately, we emerged 3rd in the finals with UNIBEN emerging 1st and UNIZIK, 2nd.
At this juncture, we wish to offer our profound thanks to the faculty of law, UNIZIK for their warm hospitality and great treatment we received from them in this competition.
