Outgone and new LSN leaders
The Law Students’ Network (LSN) is set to hold its 2025 Annual General Conference, the highest decision-making gathering of the association. Preparations have been finalised for the event, which is expected to bring law students from across the country together to deliberate on key governance, policy and welfare matters affecting the Network.
Major Agenda
This year’s conference will consider several important agenda items, including the presentation of the report from the outgoing Convenor and the official outdooring of the LSN Constitution. Newly elected Executives, Patrons and members of the Board of Advisors will also be formally introduced.
Delegates will deliberate on the structure of dues, preferred modes of payment, and also launch a scholarship scheme intended to support financially constrained law students. Organisers say resolutions passed at the conference will remain binding on all members of the Network.
Guests
A distinguished lineup of legal luminaries and public personalities is expected to grace the event. They include Kow Abaka Essuman, former Counsel to President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo; Maataa Opare, Founder and Non-Executive Chairperson of Hawkhurst & Dua; Hon. Alfred Tuah, former Deputy Attorney-General and Minister for Justice; and Nana Akwasi Awuah, Esq, former Managing Director of the Precious Minerals Marketing Company (now GoldBod) and founder of Parkwood & Mossane.
Also joining the event are Enoch Anhwere Afoakwah, Esq, a founding member of the LSN; Dr. Sylvester Nyamekye, Esq, Executive Director of NIBS University and Managing Partner of Nyamekye and Partners; Gary Nimako Marfo, Esq, Director of the Legal Affairs Directorate of the NPP; Hon. Godfred Yeboah Dame, Esq, former Attorney-General and Minister for Justice; and Hon. Sammi Awuku, Esq, Member of Parliament for Akuapem North.
Meet & Greet
This year’s conference will be followed by a special Meet and Greet session designed to welcome newly admitted students to the Ghana School of Law. The social event aims to create an informal platform for Part 1 students to engage, connect and interact with their Part 2 counterparts.
Organisers say the session will help foster mentorship, build networks, and ease the transition of new students into the rigorous academic and professional environment of the Law School.
