Oluwakemi Oloyede-Naiyeju

Prosecutor

I am a prosecutor in Nigeria with the Federal Inland Revenue Service, I joined the International Association of Prosecutors in 2023. I had the privilege to attend the annual meeting and conference in London. It was a very interactive platform for associates all over the world to exchange intellectual ideas with expertise from specialized fields across borders. My heart was filled with joy and so much excitement having the opportunity for continuous legal education and diversity on how to combat crime. I was thrilled with lots of social attractions and beautiful memories at the IAP Conference. I also had the opportunity to network and share ideas with fellow associates all over the globe. My experience with IAP as also expanded my expertise in prosecuting my cases at work. I am so happy to be a member of the IAP and I am proud of this reputable organization with the focus to uphold law and Justice.

Nicholas Cowdery AO KC

Former President of IAP, 1999-2005

As one of a dwindling band of original IAP members – those who started the Association nearly three decades ago – it pleases me to be able to say that the IAP has exceeded our original expectations enormously. That is due to staff input (of course) but also to the active involvement of the ever-growing body of members from all parts of the globe. All signs point to an increasingly influential and enjoyable future for all concerned.
