The 1st vice president of the Nigeria Bar Association, John Aikpokpo-Martins, has dismissed news making round of disqualified housemate, Beauty being a lawyer.
Beauty who was disqualified from the BBnaija show over her violent behavior; throwing her wig and hitting a co-housemate has been denied by the NBA.
In a recent statement the Vice president had this to say;
RE: BEAUTY TAKURA, LAWYER AND FORMER MISS NIGERIA DISQUALIFIED FROM BBNAIJA SEASON 7.
My attention and I guess of a large number of lawyers in Nigeria have been drawn to news reports that one Beauty Tukura, who is claimed and/or claims to be a lawyer participated and also got ignominiously disqualified from the on-going Big Brother Naija reality show “for throwing her wig and glasses at” a co-participant in the show after a party.
These reports have been very embarrassing to most members of the legal profession and may in all reasonable probability bring the profession into disrepute if found to be true.
A quick check of the databases of the Roll of Legal Practitioners kept in the Supreme Court and the Nigerian Bar Association failed to reveal the name “Beauty Tukura” to be on the Supreme Court Roll or to be a member of the Nigerian Bar Association.
However, I hereby appeal to anyone who may be aware of her true name assuming we may have gotten her real name wrong to reach out to me.
Thank you.
John Aikpokpo-Martins,
1st Vice President, NBA.
