The NBA election was NOT fraudulent but it was unorganised
I have to state that,I did not vote for Paul Usoro in the election and I did not vote for Arthur Obi-Okafor .
I have been reading with dismay the events that followed the declaration of Paul Usoro SAN as the President of the NBA and i find it disturbing.
A group of lawyers who supported Arthur Obi-Okafor are trying to set the bar on fire because of their desperation.That will not happen.I find their behaviour recalcitrant. Continue reading The NBA election was NOT fraudulent but it was unorganised

I have read the Preliminary Report that was prepared and released by Mr. Olumuyiwa Olowokure, the Leader of the Arthur Obi Okafor, SAN’s Technical Team, alleging irregularities that the Team purportedly identified in the just concluded NBA Elections.

It is therefore apparent that the said list was manufactured and/fabricated by the AOO Team in an attempt to discredit the electoral victory of Paul Usoro. Continue reading Just in-Olowokure’s preliminary release confirmed as fake
The true story of what happened in the 2018 NBA election- Anthony Atata
Paul Usoro SAN has emerged as the President of the Nigerian Bar association and the majority of lawyers across the country are excited about it.
A Paul Usoro presidency will mean a stop to business as usual and that is why a negligible few in the legal profession are desperately staging pockets of resistance to the outcome of the election. The reason behind it is easy to understand. They have worked hard with hopes of juicy appointments and beneficial involvement in the activities of the NBA. Unfortunately, that will not happen.

What a group of lawyers supporting a particular presidential candidate in the NBA election want to achieve with a petition by Mrs Kehinde Dunmole dated the 13th of August 2018 when they posted it on facebook is apparent to those who know their leanings and appalling to those who do not know them.

Uplifting the NBA to Gold Standard-Kunle Edison
The extraordinary heritage of gold is one with unique qualities. As an enduring element found naturally in a distinct yellow color, gold is resistant to rust, tarnish, and corrosion.
