​NLCOC Honouree Initiates Annual Award for Ifelaw Best Graduating Student

Carve your name on hearts, not tombstones. The great use of life is to spend it for something that will outlast it



Obviously, NLCOC '18  has come  and gone but its legacy lives forever in the  history book of our dear society.
The success of the just concluded  NLCOC is not only hanging on the actuality but as well as the precedent that has been laid.

It's noteworthy  that we call the attention of our esteemed members of the society to the momentous and monumental strides incidental to the success of the just concluded conference.

While giving  his address, the Honouree, Dr Liman Hassan Mohammed gracefully assured:

° ​To award the best graduating  law student, hence the Dr Hassan M. Liman's Prize.​

° ​To facilitate  the functionality of legal aid clinic for  faculty of law.​

The University's Vice chancellor who was represented  by the University's librarian conferred  the title of ​"Wakili of OAU"​ (OAU Ambassador) on Dr Liman Hassan Mohammed.


With this we have once again collectively affirmed our society to be the pacemaker and trendsetter for others.

We are indebted to our dear Honouree  who has made possible this extraordinary inflection in the Faculty's trajectory.


Very few things in life are entirely the work of just one person – and this is no exception, so It is good we pay tribute to the enormous contributions made by our dear Honouree, his team, guest speakers and invited schools.

We would like to say a huge thank you to everyone that has contributed to the success  of the program. Most  especially, the  entire  Law Students' Society for the  unflinching and invariable support.
