The Nigerian Bar Association (NBA),Lagos branch, on Wednesday, lauded the efforts of the state House of Assembly at promoting good governance, through the various laws it made.
Speaking during a visit to the Speaker, Honour-able Adeyemi Ikuforiji, the chairman, 2012 Law Week Committee, Mr Hannibal Uwaifo, said “we, as lawyers and members of the NBA Lagos branch, do not play to the gallery. We don’t just commend people until we know such people’s background. And we don’t just visit people anyhow.
“We are aware of the moves by some people to tarnish your image; but having studied you for long, and being fully aware of your antecedents as a very decent man, we are sure of your excellent background. We know you were not a pauper before you came into politics and we also know you will not leave a pauper.
“We, members of Lagos NBA, will continue to support you until there is a cogent reason for us not to do so.”
The NBA chairman, Mr Taiwo Taiwo, in his address, said “the Lagos State House of Assembly, which you lead, remains the most organised in the whole federation.”
Responding, Ikuforiji commended NBA for pursuing excellence at all times, adding that ‘this is my third term as Lagos State House of Assembly speaker. It is a delight for me to play host to such a vibrant association of yours.
The NBA remains one of the few highly responsible associations that I have a lot of respect for.”
