Dele Adesina is the best for Bar Presidency at this time of our history and the future of our profession.

He not only packs a punch on progressive ideas and execution but has the most experience at leadership and change for the Bar and the legal profession. After NBA was resuscitated following the Port Harcourt imbroglio, it was under the regime of Chief Wole Olanipekun SAN 2002 – 2004 when Dele Adesina was the General Secretary that the Bar witnessed so many firsts in her development. Dele Adesina was in the Centre of them all and highly active in all those activities. I recall some of them like-
● The first (and I think the only so far) minimum wage guideline for legal practitioners that targeted young lawyers. Subsequent administrations abandoned the minimum wage guidelines. Young lawyers are still totally being marginalized, poorly paid and treated by the profession up till date.
● First NBA conference to be conducted in break-out sessions and simultaneous sessions. Before then annual conferences were organized in one hall like ‘dugbe’ market. The General Secretary was the administrator of annual conferences.
● First to resuscitate and relaunch the Nigerian Bar Journal. Seven editions were published in that tenure alone.
● First comprehensive review of the Legal Practitioners Act (2004).
● First enactment of the Stamp and Seal Regulation. The Regulation which was suggested by a committee was first captured in the draft Legal Practitioners Act of 2004, but later enacted in the RPC of 2007; and
● Of course, a first comprehensive reform of the administration of the NBA Secretariat.
I personally know Dele and vouch for his integrity. The Bar needs a progressive President, a dedicated leader, a non-dictator, a democrat, a result-oriented leader, and a compassionate and strongly experienced Bar leader.
Dele Adesina is the man. He will bring total turn around for the Bar and the Legal profession.
I endorse Dele for NBA President without any hesitation whatsoever.
