The Association of Legislative Drafting and Advocacy Practitioners (ALDRAP) has raised concerns regarding the introduction of the Blue Silks rank of Senior Counsel of Nigeria (SCN) as an alternative to the established title of Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN). In their statement, ALDRAP contended that the Chief Justice of Nigeria (CJN), the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA), and the Legal Practitioners Privileges Committee (LPPC) have effectively conferred tacit approval for this new rank amidst ongoing legal disputes. The controversy surrounding this development highlights the complexities within the Nigerian legal framework and the implications for legal practitioners across the country.
