PHOTOS: Wike Joins Son’s Call to Bar Procession in Abuja
The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, on Tuesday joined the Body of Benchers’ procession during the Call to Bar ceremony in Abuja, as his son, Jordan Wike, was formally admitted into the Nigerian Bar.
The minister was accompanied by his wife, Justice Eberechi Suzzette Wike, as the family marked the proud occasion.
Wike’s Senior Special Assistant on Public Communications and Social Media, Lere Olayinka, confirmed the development in a post on his official X (formerly Twitter) handle, where he also shared photos of the family.
“Happy Dad and Mum. FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike, his wife, Justice Eberechi Suzzette Wike, with their son, Jordan, who is to be called to Bar today,” Olayinka wrote.
A video also showed the minister taking part in the Body of Benchers’ procession, highlighting the ceremonial significance of the day.
The Call to Bar is a major event in Nigeria’s legal calendar, where new lawyers are officially admitted after completing training at the Nigerian Law School.
