Hon. Barr. Aida Nath Ogwuche, Founder of the Aida Nath Foundation, Real Estate Developer and Idoma-born legal practitioner, has congratulated Dr. Olugbemisola Odusote Titilayo on her historic appointment as the Director-General of the Nigerian Law School by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, describing it as a defining moment for Nigeria’s legal profession and gender inclusion in leadership.
In a congratulatory statement issued on Tuesday, Barr. Aida commended President Tinubu for what she described as a bold, visionary, and merit-driven decision that has broken a 64-year jinx in the leadership of the Nigerian Law School.
“This landmark appointment is a powerful testament to Mr. President’s commitment to gender inclusion, equity, and competence,” Aida said. “It sends a clear and resounding message that women are not only capable but are central to nation-building and the transformation of our critical institutions.”
She noted that Dr. Titilayo’s elevation represents a major stride in gender emancipation, particularly within the legal profession, which has long been perceived as male-dominated at its highest administrative levels.
According to Barr. Aida, the appointment will inspire a new generation of young women and girls to aspire boldly and pursue excellence without limitation. “This is a victory not just for Dr. Titilayo, but for every Nigerian woman who believes in fairness, opportunity, and the power of merit,” she stated.
The Aida Nath Foundation founder and politician further expressed confidence in Dr. Titilayo’s capacity to reposition the Nigerian Law School and strengthen the legal profession nationwide. She highlighted the new Director-General’s wealth of experience, discipline, and visionary leadership as critical assets for reform.
“With her depth of experience and clear vision, Dr. Titilayo is well positioned to redefine legal education, strengthen professional ethics, and drive progressive reforms that will enhance the quality, integrity, and global competitiveness of Nigeria’s legal system,” Aida said.
She added that the appointment signals a new dawn for the Nigerian Law School and underscores the growing recognition of women as transformative leaders across sectors.
Barr. Aida concluded by once again congratulating Dr. Titilayo and wishing her a successful and impactful tenure. “This is indeed a proud moment for Nigeria. Congratulations once again, Ma, on this well-deserved and historic appointment,” she said.
