As can be seen the duties of the National Welfare Secretary of the NBA are onerous. Considering the huge constitutional responsibilities, the National Welfare Secretary is expectedly one of the very important officers of the Association. Such high responsibilities require a person with a proven pedigree of consistent performance, passion for service and result-oriented, to deliver on the job. The National Welfare Secretary must be someone that understands very well the issues affecting the individual members of the bar. He must be ready to lead the battle against violations of their rights by law enforcement agents. He must be available 24/7 to work for you.

The office of the National Welfare Secretary is not a tea party or one only for social events. It is about the total wellbeing and practice of members of the bar. It must be about competence based on proven performance of the candidates.

It should not be about how small or how big the office is for the occupant. Passionate and result-oriented bar men don’t think that way. It should be about adding value to the system and what the aspirant can bring to the NBA to uplift the welfare of members.

Your welfare as a member of the NBA is important and paramount to Kunle Edun.
