Jesse Alexander Brisibe, a young and ambitious barrister, has made history by becoming officially admitted to the Bar of The Gambia. He is now a fully-fledged member of the Supreme Court of The Gambia, authorized to practice law in the country
Brisibe’s journey to becoming a lawyer has been a testament to his dedication and passion for the law. From his humble beginnings, he has risen through the ranks to become an accomplished attorney, upholding the principles of justice and equality in his work
In his LinkedIn post, Brisibe quotes the late Scottish novelist, Walter Scott, on the importance of a lawyer’s knowledge and understanding of the law and its history. A lawyer who lacks a deep understanding of the law and its evolution, he says, is merely a “mechanic” or a “working mason”
For Brisibe, being a lawyer goes beyond simply practicing the law; it is about being a guardian of justice and a defender of the rights of all people. He takes pride in his role as a legal professional and is committed to serving his clients and his community with integrity and excellence
As he begins his legal journey, Brisibe inspires others to pursue their dreams and to make a positive impact in their communities. He serves as a shining example of what can be achieved through hard work, determination, and a love for the law”
