This was done at a ceremony held in Gambia’s capital, Banjul, on Monday, February 2, 2021.
In all, 38 lawyers were called to the bar in The Gambia, out of which 25 of them were Ghanaians.
This development is bound to renew talks over the current system at the Ghana School of Law (GSL).
Two years ago, Ghana’s legal education system came under the spotlight following the mass failure of students in the bar exams organised by an independent examination council.
Only 64 students passed in the 2018 professional law examinations, with over 280 more repeating various courses.
Meanwhile, 177 students were also made to re-sit for the examination after they were referred in various papers.
