Ifunanya Excel, a controversial Nigerian lawyer, has finally spoken out about her claimed suspension by the Nigerian Bar Association, NBA.
Last month, word came on social media that the young female lawyer had been sanctioned for misbehaviour after her nude was published on the internet.
Although the NBA quickly disproved the accusations, Ifunanya remained mute until today.
In a recent interview with Yangi Media, the young lawyer said that, contrary to popular belief, she was never suspended from the NBA.
She said, “I was never suspended. I mean, we all know that Nigerian Bar Association is a reputable organisation. If I were suspended, they will make it known to the public that this is what happened. It wouldn’t come from blogs.”
She said she doesn’t conform to societal norms because society expects women to be submissive and docile.
Ifunanya added that she would continue with her lifestyle regardless of what society thinks of her.
