1–10 years: ₦100,000
11–20 years: ₦150,000
21 years and above: ₦250,000
Senior Advocates of Nigeria (SANs): ₦800,000
In addition, lawyers will be mandated to provide their Bank Verification Number (BVN) and National Identification Number (NIN) to enable the government access to their bank account details for what it describes as “prop
