The President of the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) Mr. Paul Usoro SAN on Thursday promised to inaugurate the new trustees of the association who were appointed during the NBA conference in August 2019 very soon.
He stated this while at the on going National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting at Abuja.
Usoro was responding to an observation by a former General Secretary of the association, Mr. Dele Adesina SAN, who drew the attention of the president to the fact.
The President stated that he would not only inaugurate the new trustees, but will also organise a Dinner for both the former and present trustees to interract, interface and rob minds together for the interest of the Bar.
The NBA appointed the new Dr Olisa Agbakoba SAN led board of trustees at the last conference in August 2019. Other members of the committee are former Presidents of the NBA, Joseph Bodunrin Daudu (SAN), Augustine Alegeh (SAN), a former General Secretary of the NBA, Obafemi Adewale, and Hajia Fatima Kwaku.
Meanwhile, Members of the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) Can now order for a stamp and seal online via the new website of the Association.
This was disclosed by the NBA ICT Officer, Gezawa Umar, Thursday, at the on-going NEC meeting holding at NBA National House, Abuja.
When presenting the features in the new website, ,( https://nigerianbar.org.ng/) Gezwa said that each user has a unique profile which will enable him to make automatic payment for Bar Practicing and conveniently order for Stamp and Seal.
He said the system makes room for verification of stamp and Seal before they are approved and dispensed. The verification process will also be enabled on the website.
The President urged members to get verified as this would help aid the process of verification and it will also help the NBA to develop a DATABASE For Eligible lawyers.
The President also stated that 3 sets of secular will be disseminated to sensitize members on the web informing them on the new development on how to procure the stamp and Seal.
He further suggested that a notification will be sent to branch Chairmen for approval and after 2 days or one week as the case may be, if they fail to approve then there will be rerouting to the National Secretariat for approval.
Applicants are to upload their Bar Practicing Fee as these are the requirements for stamp and Seal application.
This will do away with the bureaucracy on the online applications.
The meeting is still ongoing.
