The Alliance Law Firm has concluded plans to hold its Annual 2022 Lecture Series on October 8 at Victoria Island, Lagos.

The annual lecture is a Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) programme of the firm and it is designed to share knowledge on topical issues that align with nation building in a conducive and networking gathering of business leaders, policy makers, professionals and other stakeholders.

The 2022 edition is unique on the grounds that it coincides with the firm’s 20th Anniversary and other celebrations.

The theme of the event is titled, “Developing Nigeria Through Philanthropy,” while the guest speaker is Dr. Ernest Azudialu-Obiejesi, the Chairman & GMD Nestoil Group, Neconde Energy Limited and Obijackson Foundation.

The event will also be chaired by Mr Mutui Sunmonu, the Chairman of Julius Berger Plc and former Country Chair & MD, SPDC.

Top dignitaries and policy makers including Captains of Industry, heads of parastatals, senior lawyers and other stakeholders are expected to attend the special event.

The maiden edition was held at the Radisson Blu Hotel in Victoria Island in September 2018 and was chaired by Prof. Pat Utomi while Mr. Dotun Suleiman as lead speaker was supported by other eminent panelists including Mr. Austin Avuru and Mr. Oscar Onyema.

The theme of the event was on “Corporate Governance.”

The 2019 edition of the annual lecture with a theme titled, “Leveraging Technology to Develop Nigeria” was chaired by Dr. Ernest Ndukwe and had Sir. Leo Stan Ekeh as Guest Speaker, with Dr. Andrew Nervin, Mr. Patrick Akinwuntan, Mr. Mike Ogbalu III, and Lynda Ikeji as panelists.

But owing to the Covid-19 pandemic disruptions, Alliance Law Firm could not hold the events in 2020 and 2021 and instead organised international webinars on Virtual Legal Proceedings and Taxation.
