Kenneth Ononeze Okwor is regarded as the man who did the impossible, as he bagged 10 awards at the call to bar in December 2015 shattering the previous record set 2 months earlier, and being the best graduating student ever! Quite something if you ask me!
He received the “Best Student of the Year” given by 3 donors, “Council of Education Star Prize”, “Prize for 1st Class Students”, “Corporate Law Practice Award” given by 2 donors,”Property Law Practice Award”, “Best Overall Performance”, and the newly introduced “Best Overall Male Student Prize” donated by Nigerian Bar Association (NBA).
Funny enough, he graduated with a Second Class (Upper Division) in Law from the University of Jos (UNIJOS), where he made distinctions in Commercial Law, International Law and the Law of Evidence, and went on to bag a first class from the Law School, where he studied at the Lagos Campus.
Okwor is an Associate at Templars Law Firm, where he has advised on issues relating to Banking and different financing structures, Capital Markets, Corporate Insolvency, Winding up, Mergers and Acquisitions, Projects and Infrastructure, Real Estate, Divestments, Foreign Direct Investments, Legal Due Diligence, Regulatory Compliance, Dispute Resolution, Business Development and general corporate and commercial matters.
