A senior lawyer has become a subject of mockery and criticisms online following his outfit to court on Tuesday (yesterday). 

According to a concerned citizen who took to social media to reveal his displeasure with the lawyer's torn and raggedy wig and gown, this is not the first time the man (lawyer) has appeared in court dressed like that. 

Internet users including legal practitioners criticised and berated the lawyer for the attire after these pictures were shared online as many were left shocked why a senior lawyer would dress in such manner to court considering his status. 

Facebook user ‎Michael Amos‎ wrote; 

"This is what a very Senior Lawyer wore to court .Today was not the first day I saw him like this.I am bothered as to why a senior lawyer will be comfortable to wear a raggy wig and gown to court.This beats me".

What's the meaning of this? I had initially thought it's a form of protest by a group of lawyers till I read the post and noticed it's just one lawyer. And A senior lawyer at that? And not his first time too?
I'd be interested to know what the judge said about this horrible appearance in his court cos there sure has to be a reason!

Space booked

do we call this one poverty?

endtime lawyer

This one don read so tey book don cover him eyes

Why do they even have to wear the wig and gown?

How will someone with shame even wear this?

He looks like a mad man!

At least, he knows his onions

Madness is everywhere, even in the law court

Just like afonja will defend the rusted brown roof and mud houses that dots ibadam as evidence of phantom civilization, this dirty lawyer will equally defend his ragtag robe as evidence of long-term bench duty.

Spits at both analogy. Dirtiness at its peak.

Hmm, probably trying to pass a message across.
