The ban on the registration portal for 2017 NBA Annual General
Conference has been lifted for lawyers to continue with their
registration. This was contained in the press release by the
president of the Association, AB Mahmoud after meeting with the
TCCP and LOC.Below reads the press release.
Dear Colleague,
I thank you all for the support you have shown towards the NBA
Annual General Conference 2017, which is intended to be a
face-changing programme for our Bar, the legal profession in
Nigeria, and indeed the entire continent.
The response from the Bar has been most encouraging and has
reinforced our justification for ensuring that the event for this
year remains memorable for our members.
I have been impressed by the level of interest demonstrated by
intended delegates for the Conference, which has indeed matched our
expectations.
However, some of our members have experienced some difficulties
in completing their registration process as a result of varying
glitches or limitations with the online registration process.
To ease these concerns, I have met with the TCCP and the LOC and
worked out modalities to ensure that these difficulties are
addressed. This will be to ensure that there is continued
registration by categories of delegates that have hitherto been
informed that the Conference was “sold out”.
Therefore, the registration portal is now open to all intended
delegates for the Conference, without restriction. This will be
done bearing in mind the utmost importance of our concerns for
health and safety, and the need to ensure that the available
infrastructure, facilities and other resources available at our
venues are not overstretched and are adequate for its capacity of
delegates. Registration for the Conference and indeed participation
cannot be limitless, and will be treated on a first-come,
first-served basis. We shall continue to monitor the registration
process to ensure a hitch-free experience.
I thank you for your support so far and urge all, lawyers,
senior and junior alike to complete their registration in good
time.
I look forward to seeing you in Lagos.
