Barrister Nouvelliza has been a member of FAKLA for 13 years.
He candidacy was supported by prominent lawyers, including former FAKLA President, Barrister Agbor Nkongho, and her father, the erstwhile President of the Cameroon Bar Association, Battonnier Eta Bissong.
The Fako Lawyers Association groups lawyers practicing in the Fako Division of Cameroon’s South West Region.
It is one of the largest groups for lawyers in the country after the Cameroon Bar Association. Many will be hoping to see some changes in legal representation with Barrister Nouvelliza’s leadership.
