Adomako told the host of Good Evening Ghana, Paul Adom Otchere, that he learnt about the achievement on the morning of the ceremony during their call to the Bar at the Accra International Conference Centre (AICC).
He disclosed that he was a bit overwhelmed when he first received the news about the feat.
''For the first few minutes, I could not express myself very well because I was not expecting that; I was very surprised.
''There was this pressure; I was a bit tensed, so it took a while before I settled in and finally got myself to accept it,'' he said.
Despite the initial adrenaline rush through his veins, he walked down the stage to pick his prize.
Adomako disclosed that he's in talks with some prestigious law firms and plans to settle with one, where he'll begin his young career as a lawyer.
