Protest at Supreme Court Over Alleged Seating Preference for Politicians

A retired activist protested at the Supreme Court after several Senior Advocates of Nigeria were reportedly denied entry to a legal-year event. The lawyers had gathered for the opening of the 2026/2027 legal year and the conferment ceremony for newly appointed SANs. A video from the scene shows senior lawyers standing on the staircase outside the venue. The protester alleged that seats were reserved for politicians instead. The claim has not been independently confirmed.
