The team of DSN Volunteers led by the DSN Coordinator Olasunkanmi Ogunniran Esq. did not meet the Head and the subordinate in authority are not willing to be accountable for the purpose of our visit.

@O'C Legal, Elewe Eran, (PHQ)

The team of DSN Volunteers led by the Coordinator Olasunkanmi Ogunniran, Esq. Visit to O'C Legal Elewe Eran can best be termed our own constituency as the team of DSN Volunteers were given warm reception by the O'C legal, Mr Charles with an unflinching support for the Duty Solicitors Scheme.

Further, the O'C Legal refer us to get a Letter of Introduction from the NBA Abeokuta Branch before the commencement of DSN operation within the jurisdiction.

However, we observed that the current NBA Abeokuta bar led administration tenure come to an end by June 2023. Therefore we might have to wait, hold on to get the letter of Introduction until the the new NBA Abeokuta Branch Administration is sworn in and /or inaugurated.

Thank you All.

Abeokuta Chapter, Olasunkanmi Ogunniran, Esq.
