Reflecting on the new role, Ige described it as both a privilege and a heightened responsibility. According to him, the office of a Notary Public is deeply anchored in trust, integrity, and the formal authentication of legal documents, functions that carry both local and international relevance.
“This milestone goes beyond personal achievement; it is a call to greater professional responsibility,” he said. “The role allows me to authenticate documents, administer oaths, and support legal processes that require international recognition, particularly in cross-border transactions.”
With a practice that focuses largely on debt recovery and commercial law, Ige explained that the notary designation naturally complements his existing work. He noted that many of the cases he handles involve documentation that must meet strict evidentiary and global standards.
“In many recovery and commercial matters, documentation is critical. As a Notary Public, I can now ensure that such documents meet the highest standards of credibility and are legally recognised across jurisdictions,” he added.
