HRM Oba Adebanji Ajibade Alabi, AFUNTADE 1, the Alawe of Ilawe Ekiti, has congratulated the wife of senior lawyer, Femi Falana, over her promotion to the prestigious position of Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN).
Funmi Falana was listed earlier today among newly appointed SANs.
In a statement issued in his palace in Ilawe Ekiti on Friday, the monarch described the choice of Mrs Falana as well-deserved.

The Alawe expressed joy that the elevation of Falana would further add to the eminent positions of Ilawe indigenes in the law profession.
While describing her as a shinning light among legal practitioners in the country, Oba Alabi prayed that God would give her the wisdom, guidance and good health to continue her practice to the benefit of the human race.
