Serwaa Amihere Officially Called To The Bar After Five Years Of Legal Studies

After years of relentless study, sacrifices, and silent toil, Ghanaian media personality Serwaa Amihere was officially called to the Ghana Bar on October 10, 2025, a milestone that transforms her public persona into that of a practicing lawyer with a powerful new voice.

This milestone marks the beginning of a new chapter for Serwaa Amihere, one of Ghana’s most recognizable media figures, as she joined the ranks of legal practitioners in a solemn ceremony held at the Accra International Conference Center on October 10, 2025.

In her remarks shared earlier on her Instagram page, Amihere revealed just how steep the climb had been: “40 subjects. 40 exams. Over 2,500 lecture-hours. More than 8,000 hours of private studies and group discussions. A thousand plus judicial decisions … dozens of enactments … many more dozens of pens, pencils, markers, highlighters, and sticky notes … Sleepy days and sleepless nights.” This deeply personal reflection underscored how she had kept this side of her life away from public view for the last five years. 

The 2025 Call to the Bar brought in 824 lawyers-in-waiting to take their oaths. Serwaa, already a household name in broadcasting, entered the event flanked by family and friends, including her mother and sister Maame Gyamfuaa, moments of pride caught on video and shared widely across social media. 

Ghana’s press and entertainment sectors have long known Amihere as an eloquent and polished broadcaster. But her decision to pursue legal training while maintaining her media commitments is a balance few would attempt, sets her apart as a trailblazer for those who dream of holding more than one mantle. 

At the ceremony, Amihere expressed gratitude to God, her family, mentors, and supporters who stood with her. She dedicated the moment “to a new chapter,” signaling the start of a journey where her voice may now wield legal force as well as public influence. 

Observers expect that Amihere, now “Esq.,” will fuse her media platform with her legal training, perhaps focusing on advocacy, public interest law, or legal education. For many young Ghanaians, especially women in public life, her rise from studio lights to courtroom order stands as a bold testament: public roles need not limit private dreams; they can, if nurtured, amplify them.

As she stepped into the robe and wig, Ghana watched not just a celebrity enter the legal world, but a storyteller ready to argue justice.
