The forthcoming NBA Young Lawyers Forum (NBA-YLF) National Summit 2026 has received a significant boost as Past NBA 3rd Vice President, Omubo Frank-Briggs, has pledged his support for the landmark event. In a commendable show of commitment to the growth and development of young legal practitioners, he has also sponsored 30 young lawyers to attend the summit in Port Harcourt, Rivers State.
Scheduled to hold from 22nd to 24th April 2026, the Summit—under the theme “NBA-YLF@20: Rising To Lead”—is set to bring together the next generation of legal leaders for impactful conversations, capacity building, and strategic engagement. The sponsorship by Mr. Frank-Briggs reflects a deep understanding of the importance of investing in young lawyers and ensuring that financial constraints do not limit access to opportunities for growth, exposure, and professional advancement.
This gesture not only reinforces the spirit of mentorship and support within the legal profession but also aligns with the broader vision of the NBA-YLF to create an inclusive platform where young lawyers can learn, connect, and lead. By enabling greater participation, the sponsorship contributes to the richness of dialogue and diversity of perspectives that the Summit aims to achieve.
As preparations for the 2026 National Summit continue to gather momentum, such acts of support serve as a powerful reminder that the future of the legal profession is strengthened when experienced leaders actively invest in the next generation. The NBA-YLF looks forward to welcoming participants to what promises to be a transformative and defining gathering for young lawyers across Nigeria.
