Held fruitful talks with PM Jonas Gahr Støre in Oslo. One of the key highlights was the upgrading of our bilateral partnership to a Green Strategic Partnership, which will deepen synergy in clean energy, sustainable growth, the blue economy, green shipping and more. We also talked about boosting linkages in innovation, research, education, healthcare, skill development and more. It is gladdening to see Norway join the Indo-Pacific Oceans Initiative.

NBA INTRODUCES DIGITAL SIGNATURE STUDIO ON THE DIGITAL SEAL PORTAL
Legal practice is increasingly digital. Many lawyers today review, approve, and transmit documents directly from their phones and laptops without the need to print, sign, and scan physical copies. In response to this evolving mode of practice, the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) has introduced the Digital Signature Studio on the NBA Digital Seal Portal, providing a seamless way for lawyers to sign documents electronically within the platform.
With this feature, lawyers can now create, store, and affix secure digital signatures directly from their Digital Seal dashboard, allowing documents to be signed instantly while maintaining the highest standards of security, authenticity, and professional integrity.
The Digital Signature Studio enables practitioners to sign documents digitally and combine their signature with the NBA Digital Seal where required, making virtual legal work faster, more efficient, and fully verifiable.

Lawyers can generate their personal digital signatures through the Signature Studio in just a few simple steps:
1. ACCESS THE SIGNATURE STUDIO

2. CHOOSE YOUR PREFERRED CREATION METHOD

Draw your signature directly using your mouse or laptop trackpad.
• Camera Capture
Write your signature on a clean white sheet of paper, capture it with your camera, click Preview, and the system will automatically clean and convert it into a digital signature.

3. SAVE YOUR SIGNATURE
Once satisfied, click Save.

Wetlands may often be overlooked, but they are essential to life.
They are among nature’s most powerful systems. Wetlands store water during droughts, absorb floods, and filter pollution, helping provide clean drinking water and support crops and livelihoods.
This #WorldWetlandsDay, let us honour the traditional knowledge and cultural heritage that have protected wetlands for generations.
