It was not immediately clear how many of the lawyers called were Central alumni, as the university had not released an official figure.

Accompanying the graphics, the university wrote:

“Once again, we take a moment to celebrate the alumni of Central Law School who were recently called to the Bar in Ghana. Congratulations to our newest legal practitioners on this significant milestone!”

The university also wished the new lawyers success as they begin “this exciting journey in the legal profession.”
