Nigerian Bar Association: A Body in Dire Need of Corporate Governance

By Peter Akinnusi At this year’s National Executive Council, NEC meeting of the Nigerian Bar Association, NBA in Ilorin, Kwara State, the President of the NBA, Abubakar Balarabe Mahmoud (SAN), seemed hard-pressed to stress the need to introduce corporate governance and efficient structural management at the Bar.This much has been apparent for quite a while now. He had previously engaged leading consulting firm, KPMG, to carry out an audit, and the report which was presented at the very same NEC meeting did not make for palatable reading. It highlighted the apparent lack of corporate governance culture in the NBA, and how much the NBA was riddled with structural defects ranging from blurred hierarchical lines to less-than-ideal financial and revenue management, as well as anaemic standards for staff job descriptions, evaluation, and training.In other words, the need to inject corporate governance into the NBA has been long overdue.

By Nwokocha Chidinma Grace Lagos, Nigeria. Laura paced up and down the well- furnished room that served as her office.

Of Love, Betrayal And Breach Of The Law.

 By Ayuk Kure, Lagos Nigeria. Mbanefo turned 28 on January 3rd 2017. The birthday which he marked on the Buguma Beach in Port Harcourt, Rivers State had in attendance men of different pocket sizes and colour. The rich, the very rich and the super rich were all there.  The Mongoloid, the Caucasoid, the white and the black were the colours represented at the event. Love filtered in the air, music played mildly in the background and enticing dishes saluted one on entry to the venue. It was such a beautiful night. The activities of the night commenced in earnest with MC Mango anchoring the show. He was astonishingly funny and all the ladies laughed and laughed till their tears began to wash off their make ups. The guys on the other hand could not contain their laughter as they laughed heartily holding their bellies like pregnant women about to deliver. It was such a beautiful night in deed. When MC Mango noticed that his jokes were beginning to tell on his listeners’ ribs, he
