Eid Mubarak!

May Allah accept all our prayers, supplications, glorification and good deeds as an act of Ibadah.

Aamin!

On Friday, the 17th of January, 2025, our team of pro bono Lawyers and volunteers visited the Special Correctional Centre for Boys, Oregun, to interact with the ‘students’ to offer them legal representation.

During the visit, we listened to the stories of twenty-seven (27) cases of young people who conflicted with the law between the ages of 13 and 17. We were moved by some of their stories and sincerely believe they deserve a second shot at life. We will develop litigation strategies to ensure that these cases are resolved as soon as possible.

In the coming days, we will analyse these cases and assign them to our team of volunteer lawyers to provide pro bono legal services.
