It is with great enthusiasm that we announce the appointment of Prof. Omoniyi Bukola Akinola, PhD, as the new Head of Chamber and Senior Partner at Castle of Law.

His contributions to legal scholarship are evidenced by numerous publications, and he continues to inspire future legal minds as a faculty member at Baze University, Abuja.
