Must my company secretary be a lawyer?
Generally, your company secretary does not have to be a lawyer. However, where your company is a public company, the Companies and Allied Matters Act stipulates that your company secretary must be a member of a professional body which could be of lawyers, secretaries, accountants or doctors, etc, depending on what field your company would specialize in.
