At the end of conference which was held at Eko Hotel and Suites Victoria Island, Lagos, TheNigerialawyer (TNL) took its time to interview conferees to get their opinion on how this year’s conference went.
Recall that before the conference, the President, Paul Usoro, SAN, the Chairman of Technical Committee on Conference Planning (TCCP), Gbenga Oyebode, MFR and some members of the TCCP, like Sylvester Udemezue had said that the 2019 NBA-AGC will be a world-class event in the history of the Association.
The responses TNL gathered from the interviewer is not far from what was earlier speculated by the President and the TCCP Team.
The testimonies are below:
I have attended more than fifty (50) Annual General Conferences of the NBA. I have never seen any AGM as great and as well organized and orderly as this one.
I have attended very many international conferences and seen how they’re organized. With what I witnessed today at this AGM of the NBA, I can safely and proudly say, now, that Nigeria has arrived. This AGM is most wonderful. ~Pa M. A. Ajomale, SAN, Life Bencher
Paul Usoro’s administration is the best since 1981 when he started attending NBA conferences in terms of integrity, accountability and in fact, Prudential management of NBA funds. I was so delighted to hear from the learned silk, the approval of the current government’s credibility. You guys rock. ~Chief Mike Ozehkome SAN
This year’s conference was super excellent, especially the quick response of the medical services. ~Daffe Emuma, Lagos Island Branch
This has been the best conference of the NBA so far. My concern was the different venues they introduced and the removal of tea break. ~Joy Gbanigo, Immediate Past Secretary Enugu Branch.
The program has been very successful and they accommodated as much lawyers as possible. The only concerns I have are: No provision to provide sufficient of power sockets for delegates to charge their mobile devices, no internet at harbour point, finally, people were not aware there was a sales stand at Harbour Point. ~ Abiola Ladipo, Lagos Branch
This year’s event, in my own opinion was average. ~Unanimous, Abuja Branch
The conference was fine, they did well. My only concern is the 2 venue arrangement which was a disadvantage. ~ Jummai Musa, Secretary, Kaduna Branch
This conference should be rated the best so far in terms of organization, Administration and Management. He gives the credit to the president. This year’s financial report is the best so. The President will be tested more in the next AGM meeting— Chimezie Robinson, Enugu Branch
This year’s conference has been super quality of resource persons, in fact in everything. The only areas of concern are, no tea break this year, which is needed, also the conference fees for post-call lawyers 10 years and above was really high.
Above all, the President is a wonderful man and he will leave a very big shoe for whoever will be coming in. ~ Kingsley Ehujuo, Fin. Secretary Owerri Branch.
