Former National Security Adviser, Colonel Sambo Dasuki (Rtd), who rarely attends public events, made a surprise appearance at a reception honouring newly inducted young Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN) Barrister Yunus Abdulsalam.

Despite his reserved nature at public functions, Dasuki was suddenly appointed Chairman of the Occasion. His unexpected assignment left many in attendance both surprised and delighted.

In his brief remarks before departing the venue, Dasuki humorously noted the irony of being “ambushed” into the role.

“I thought ambushes were a common occurrence only in military contexts,” he quipped. “I never expected to be ambushed by lawyers at an event celebrating a distinguished legal practitioner like Barrister Yunus Abdulsalam.”

He praised Abdulsalam for his dedication to justice, stating, “Barrister Yunus has proven to be a prolific lawyer, passionately advocating against injustice and championing the rights of citizens through his impactful litigation.”

Though he admitted to his discomfort with public speaking, Dasuki graciously accepted the honorary role bestowed upon him. “While I don’t typically enjoy speaking in public forums, I must embrace this unexpected honour. Congratulations to the celebrants, and I wish you all a joyful ceremony.”

Born on June 30, 1988, Barrister Abdulsalam’s induction as one of the youngest SANs in 2024 marks a significant milestone in his illustrious career.

As the Founder/Principal of Yunus Abdulsalam & Co, Abdulsalam’s expertise spans litigation, mediation, arbitration, banking, corporate finance, maritime, admiralty, election matters, and telecommunications.

Abdulsalam’s educational background is equally impressive, having graduated from Bayero University, Kano in 2010 and the Nigerian Law School in 2011. He also holds an executive certificate in employment law from Lincoln University in the United Kingdom.

He serves as Legal Adviser to the Forum of Spokespersons of Security and Response Agencies (FOSSRA) and the Centre for Crisis Communication (CCC).
He is also the Secretary to the Board of Image Merchants Promotion Ltd, the publishers of PRNigeria and Economic Confidential.

The Emir of Ilorin, Alhaji Ibrahim Sulu-Gambari, and Professor Adamu Abubakar Gwarzo, President of MAAUN Group of Universities, also sent heartfelt goodwill messages to Yunus Abdulsalam at the event.

The Emir praised Yunus’ intelligence, commitment, and patriotism, noting that he’s made Ilorin Emirate proud and wishing him continued excellence and professional breakthroughs.

Professor Gwarzo commended Abdulsalam for exemplifying high standards of legal practice and professional integrity, expressing confidence in his continued excellence and impactful contributions to Nigeria’s justice sector reforms and the legal profession.
