The Chairman, Technical Committee on Conference Planning (TCCP) of the 2018 NBA-AGC, Mr. George Etomi has paid an August visit to the Lagos Branch of the Nigerian Bar Association to sensitize members of the branch with respect to the Annual General Conference scheduled to be held at ICC, Abuja. The sensitization exercise was made at the 2018 annual general meeting of the Lagos Branch, which was held at the foyer of the Lagos State High at Igbosere.
