Twice denied the chance to be called to the Bar despite passing her legal education exams in 2022 and 2023, Elorm Ababio, popularly known as Ama Governor, has finally been admitted in 2024.
The controversial Ghanaian YouTuber exuded confidence as she walked majestically on stage to take the bow when her name was called. The spontaneous applause from the audience suggested that Ama Governor was the most popular among the new lawyers.

After the General Legal Council’s gathering adjourned indefinitely, EIB Network’s Legal Affairs Correspondent, Murtala Inusah, approached the newly inducted lawyer for an interview. Smiling, she declined, saying, “I have been advised against granting interviews.” Despite a request for a one-word description of the moment, Ama Governor remained firm in her decision. With her new lawyer’s wig on her head and her spectacles nearly slipping to the tip of her nose, she walked with confidence and focus.
On May 31, 2024, Elorm Ababio’s dream came true as she became a lawyer. Her name is now firmly documented in the noble profession, but as the Chief Justice reminded them, the real work of a lawyer has only just begun.
The day was special not only for Ama Governor but also for the other 181 lawyers called to the Bar. The euphoria and energy during their photo sessions were palpable.
