[REGISTER] NBA Holds ‘State Of The Nation Dialogue’ Today
The Nigerian Bar Association will today January 30 host at its State of the Nation Dialogue.
Maikyau stated that the dialogue was necessary because the legal profession could not afford to fail to discharge its primary responsibility of providing leadership and guidance on matters that affect the socio-economic and political development of the country.
“In doing this, we must continue to demonstrate a high regard for professional and ethical standards to earn the respect of the government and the people.
“We are set to go to the polls in about five weeks, to elect our representatives who will run the affairs of government, executive and legislative, for the next four years. For this purpose, we have the responsibility to provide guidance and leadership to the Nigerian people, from the point of view of our privileged position as members of the legal profession,” he said.
Amina Mohammed, Deputy Secretary General, United Nations will deliver the keynote address at the event on Monday 30th January, 2023 at the Auditorium of the NBA, National Secretariat, Abuja.
