There were 72 lawyers named Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN), by the legal practitioners privilege committee (LPPC) at its 149th plenary session on Thursday.

130 lawyers were shortlisted for the rank in September — including 95 advocate applicants and 35 academic applicants. But 72 were successful, while 58 did not make the cut.

The LPPC, in a statement on Thursday, said the swearing-in ceremony of the 72 legal practitioners by the chief justice of Nigeria (CJN)is scheduled for December 8, 2021 at the supreme court premises in Abuja.

The LPPC also reminded the public that it had set up a sub-committee to review the 2018 guidelines for the award of the rank, effective from the 2023 application year.
