THE Third Vice President of the Nigerian Bar Association, NBA Mandy Demechi-Asagba has urged today’s Annual General Meeting to “condemn the act of carrying out courtesy visits by the Nigerian Bar Association with non elected officers of the Bar.”

This may be a veiled indictment of NBA President, Mr. Yakubu Chonoko Maikyau SAN.

In her report to the AGM obtained by CITY LAWYER, the Third Vice President also raised other concerns, urging the AGM as follows:
● To condemn Non inclusion of National Officers in their relevant Committees.
● To condemn the act of using non National Officers to carry out the duties and responsibilities of National Officers thus rendering Elected National Officers mere figureheads
● To condemn the act of not allowing National Officers to carry out their constitutionally assigned responsibilities and relegating National Officers at NBA Events and treated as subservient.
