At the heat of the bar practicing fee controversy, one article published in the Daily Independent on Thursday March 14, 2013 became a hit. The article was carefully crafted with surgical precision. That day, the fight to stop the exorbitant fee added more value. Abdulrasheed Ibrahim…wrote the article which made many lawyers defy the copy right laws to make copies for their files.

On Monday, April 8 2013, another bold publication in the Moment Newspaper titled “Judiciary: An Institution Under Siege” brought the affairs of the judiciary and lawyers to the front burner.
