Candidates at the Law Society of South Africa’s School for Legal Practice in Cape Town dressed in red, black and white to show their support for the ‘Bring Back our Girls campaign’. The school’s training coordinator, Zulpha Anthony, said that the school was delighted that it has a generation of lawyers who see beyond law books and examinations and are giving back. ‘As we celebrated Africa Day, we were reminded of the special role we have as lawyers to pursue the issue of human rights and justice,’ she said.
