Ex-Lawyer Of May Edochie Breaks Silence On Alleged Supreme Court Disbarment

Emeka Ugwuonye, the former lawyer to May Edochie, has finally addressed viral rumours on social media about him being disbarred by the Supreme Court of Nigeria.

Reacting to the rumours, which surfaced amid his social media drama with May Edochie, Emeka stated that many Nigerians lack logical thinking and were easily manipulated.

The lawyer, who shared a letter attributed to a junior staff member of the Office of the Clerk of the Supreme Court of Nigeria dating back to 2018, said people were using it as evidence that he was disbarred.

He disclosed that the letter was never sent to him, as he found it on social media.

“However, this letter was supposedly addressed to Emeka Ugwuonye. The important questions nobody asked were how such a letter ended up on social media and whether it was released by the Supreme Court or Emeka Ugwuonye himself.

The truth is that this letter was not meant to convey the information it contained. It was not intended to notify me of any action taken by the Supreme Court. In fact, I could argue that the letter was legally invalid, but I don’t expect everyone to grasp the intricacies of the law or the process lawyers must follow to receive such communications. What I do expect from an intelligent person is to ask: Given how this letter has been used, what was its real purpose?

A staff member at the Supreme Court wrote a letter that she had no legal justification to write, intending only to please those who induced her. Instead, she ended up embarrassing the court and the integrity of Nigeria’s system. That letter was never sent to me; I found it on social media. When I showed it to some officials at the Supreme Court, they privately informed me that the writer could face imprisonment for her actions. That’s another story,” he wrote in part via his Facebook page.

@Pst Barr Yelwa Ishaku:”He engaged himself and perhaps when she learnt about it his disengaged himself.”

@James Finland:”Karma is real God of Yul Edochie is fighting for him. They never see anything.”

@Virginia Onuigbo:”Lawyer with no dignity or integrity , his clients secret should be his utmost priority and not talking from both sides of his mouth.”
