The event marked the formal commencement of Mba’s legal practice after
more than three decades of service in the Nigeria Police Force, where he
distinguished himself in policing, public communication, training and
institutional leadership.

Addressing guests at the event, the former police chief said his
decision to establish the firm was driven by his desire to continue
contributing to society by bringing his experience in policing, legal
training and public service to bear on legal practice.

“Retirement is not the end of service; it is an opportunity to serve in
a different capacity. My years in the Nigeria Police Force provided me
with invaluable experience in leadership, discipline, conflict
management and the administration of justice. I intend to bring these
lessons, alongside my legal training, into this new chapter.

“For me, the law is not merely a profession; it is an instrument for
protecting rights, resolving disputes, upholding justice and
strengthening confidence in our institutions. At FRANK MBA LAW, our
ambition is to build a practice that clients can trust and that
consistently upholds the highest standards of professional conduct,” he
said,” Mba said.

Mba retired as a deputy Inpector General of Police from the Force in
March 2026 after 34 years of glorious service. He served three times as
the Force Public Relations Officer (FPRO), earning recognition for his
role in police communication and public engagement. He also served as
Police Public Relations Officer in Lagos State and Commissioner of
Police in Ogun State, among other strategic positions.

As a member of the Force’s management team, he was responsible for the
Department of Training and Development, contributing to the professional
development of police personnel.

His transition to legal practice builds on his academic and professional
background. He obtained his Bachelor of Laws degree from the University
of Lagos, attended the Nigerian Law School as an award winner and earned
a Master of Laws degree from the University of Dundee, Scotland, where
he graduated with distinction. He was called to the Nigerian Bar in
2002.

Mba’s career also included international service as a member of the
Nigerian Police contingent to the United Nations Mission in Liberia from
2006 to 2007, for which he received the United Nations Medal.
