Chairmen of the various branches of the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) in the north have dissociated themselves from the newly formed NBA created by a splinter group of lawyers from the region.
In a communique after the meeting between lawyers from the zone and the new NBA President, Olumide Akpata, Wednesday, the lawyers pledged their support for the new president of the association and national officers.
In the communique, which was read by the chairman of the Arewa Lawyers Forum, Elisha Kurah, the region expressed confidence that the NBA under the leadership of Olumide Akpata would surmount these challenges and birth an all-inclusive Bar that would work for all Lawyers in Nigeria regardless of any part of the divide one might belong to.
