He takes over from the immediate past president of the association, Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Yakubu Maikyau.

In his inaugural speech delivered at the swearing-in ceremony in Lagos on Thursday, Osigwe commended his opponents, Tobenna Erojikwe and Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Chukwukwa Ikwazom, for their decorum during the electioneering process and extended a hand of fellowship to them to join him in moving the association forwards.
