Ifeyinwa Nasiah Okoye

Ifeyinwa Nasiah Okoye is a Senior Magistrate with the Anambra State Judiciary. She was called to the Nigerian Bar in 2003. She is the first person with a physical disability to be sworn into the Anambra State Judiciary as a Senior Magistrate. She is very passionate about helping young women professionals discover their true essence and worth despite institutional and societal challenges.

Equal opportunities for women in the legal profession allows for a balanced approach to the dispensation of justice across various climes. I am deeply committed to the idea of improving set skills of women in law because it improves the quality of justice delivery over time and I believe that the Women in Law initiative provides that platform.
