Femi Falana of Falana and Falana-Barristers/Solici

This photo of Femi and me was taken at his law office after our meeting today in preparation for our work together later. He is the top civil rights attorney in W. Africa. He is also the President of the West African Bar Assn and an impressive attorney. Our meeting went well as we discussed the likelihood of bringing a class action on behalf of those journalists harmed in Gambia since Jan. 2005. Violations before that date precede the institution of the Court and cannot be part of such a suit.
