Before his ministerial appointment, he was the president of the Nigerian Bar Association.[1] In 1993, Akpamgbo sided with the camp that supported the suspension of presidential elections on June 12, 1993, basing his argument on an order from procured by the Arthur Nzeribe led Association of a Better Nigeria from an Abuja High Court halting the conduct of the election.[2]
