The Abuja chapter of the Law Students Association of Nigeria has called on the Council of Legal Education to consider Law graduates of the National Open University of Nigeria for admission into the Bar Part II of the Nigerian Law School.

LAWSAN President, Mr. Moses Danladi Dairo, made the appeal during the Law Week of the association held in Abuja. Dairo also appealed to stakeholders, including the National Assembly, Body of Benchers, the Nigerian Bar Association as well as President Muhammadu Buhari, to intervene in the administrative conflict between CLE and NOUN/National Universities Commission over the non-recognition of the institution’s law graduates.

According to Punch News, he gave the authorities of the CLE the assurance that Law graduates of NOUN would not constitute a preponderance of students of the Nigerian Law School who would fail their Bar Part II Final Examination, if given the opportunity.

Dairo pointed out that the open university educational system had been all over the world, including the United Kingdom, India, China and South Africa. He noted that Nigeria could not shut itself out and refuse to be dynamic, especially in this era of change.

He said, “Nigeria should not remain an island in this emerging global best practices, especially given the resolve that with the Vision 2020 policy drive, the country is expected to eliminate all forms of illiteracy and provide education for all by 2020. Law programme, certainly, should not be the prerogative of a few privileged people.” - See more at: http://www.exlinklodge.com/2015/09/law-school-saga-students-make-case-for.html#sthash.n2SqbZyf.dpuf
