Big congrats to Ola of Lagos on the new car outlet! However, this outlet is under probably a 132kv/330kv power line. The law prohibits building under 132kv/330kv power lines for up to 30-50 metres safety reasons. If any mishap occurs, the electricity company won’t be held liable.

Ola of Lagos now has a car dealer shop- OOL motors

Congratulations to him 🎉❤️

@UthmanTochukwu He's not talking about the turnout percentage. He's talking about the voting percentages for each of the candidate. The percentage has been consistent since the commencement of voting.

I want to talk about something this campaign has not discussed enough.

The Nigerian Bar Association raises funds from some of the very institutions it is supposed to hold accountable. Government agencies. Regulatory bodies. Parastatal organisations. And every time it does, it creates a relationship that makes fearless criticism harder, even when fearless criticism is exactly what the moment requires.

This is not a conspiracy. It is a structural problem. And structural problems require structural solutions.

My financial agenda for the NBA is built on one clear principle: we must cut our coat according to our cloth.

That means spending only on what adds real, demonstrable value to the careers of members. It means reviewing the Association's assets and optimising them for revenue generation. It means restructuring our Sections, Fora, and Institutes so they can access credible international multilateral donor funding without compromising the independence of the Association. And it means committing a minimum of thirty per cent of annual revenue to the NBA Fund every single year — not as an aspiration, but as a budget line.

At the branch level, it means the ten per cent BPF allocation reaches branches on time. Not late. Not after follow-up. On time. And it means the Secretariat's relationship with branches is one of genuine partnership, not hierarchy.

An NBA that cannot fund itself independently cannot speak freely. And an NBA that cannot speak freely cannot be the institutional conscience this country needs it to be.

Financial independence is not an accounting matter. It is a question of whether this Association can be trusted to say the difficult thing when the difficult thing needs to be said.

Under my presidency, it will be.

@OmoyemiAkangbe An all-inclusive administration.

[Lateef Omoyemi Akangbe, SAN @OmoyemiAkangbe]

A Bar that claims to stand for justice and equality in the public sphere must practice both within its own house.

The LOA welfare and inclusion agenda addresses every segment of the membership that has historically been underserved by the national body:

For female lawyers: Advocacy for a national six-month paid maternity leave for all female lawyers in paid employment. A free re-entry course for women returning to practice after a career break. A creche with CCTV at all NBA events including the Annual General Conference. Proportionate representation of women in all appointments.

For law officers and government lawyers: Removal of existing barriers to law officers holding elective office within the Association. Elimination of the Red Stamp policy, which amounts to professional discrimination, and its replacement with a dual stamp system for government and private practice. Creation of a Section for Government Legal Advisers. Advocacy for Grade Level 12 as the entry point for government lawyers in the Federal Civil Service.

For lawyers with disabilities: A statutory slot for the Lawyers with Disabilities Forum on the National Executive Committee. Engagement with heads of courts and Attorneys General to ease physical access to court premises. Investment in assistive technology for professional work.

For legal and research assistants to the judiciary: Advocacy with Judicial Service Commissions for their inclusion in appointments to the Magistracy. Advocacy for retirement at sixty-five years or thirty-five years of service, whichever comes first.

For aged and incapacitated members: A maintained and updated database of aged members. A retirement and pension framework developed with relevant authorities. Recognition programmes for past national officers and those who have served the Association.

No lawyer should be left behind. Young or senior. Private practice or public service. Male or female. Able-bodied or living with a disability.

This is what one Bar means.

@ImpactLegal007 @mrfestusogun @Akin_Agunbiade The blueprint has always been there in the Remuneration Report but the political will to implement is what has been absent.

[Lawyer Agboola @bodmas94]

@Abbahtemper 😂
My leader has spoken.
Lateef Omoyemi Akangbe, SAN all the way!

[Lawyer Agboola @bodmas94]

@OlalowoTomiwa Yes oo.
We are winning.

[Lawyer Agboola @bodmas94]

@Frizzyfash Lateef Omoyemi Akangbe, SAN all the way!

[Lawyer Agboola @bodmas94]

@ataweweattorney No, I will vote Lateef Omoyemi Akangbe, SAN instead.

[Lateef Omoyemi Akangbe, SAN @OmoyemiAkangbe]

Your dues are in one place. Your CPD is somewhere else. Your practice licence is on a third platform. Your directory profile is on a fourth.

To get a letter of good standing, you visit two portals and wait three days. For a document that should take five minutes.

The NBA already has all the pieces. An app. A portal. An ICLE platform. A stamp and seal ecosystem. A Find a Lawyer directory.

None of them talk to each other.

NBA One changes that. One login. One dashboard. Every NBA service in one place, tied to your Supreme Court Number. Delivered in 18 months.

This is what a modern Bar looks like.

Saturday 18 July 2026. Vote LOA.
