In lieu of flowers
The family kindly requests that, in lieu of flowers, donations be made to the Charles Nwanne Obishai Foundation for Legal Education. The foundation supports aspiring law students on their journey to the Nigerian Bar, as well as young Nigerian lawyers in the early stages of their careers, through research and advocacy training — causes to which the learned Silk was deeply committed.
