NBA Finally Reacts To Buhari’s Comment On Rule Of Law by speedyGonzales: 2:03pm On Sep 01, 2018 |
The Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) on Friday rejected President Muhammadu Buhari’s comment that national security was superior to rule of law. The President had made the comment while declaring open the 58th Annual General Conference of the NBA. The conference ended on Friday, with the inauguration of NBA new President, Mr. Paul Usoro, Senior Advocate of Nigeria, and other newly elected national officers of the association. He took over from the 29th President of the association Mr. Abubakar Mahmoud (SAN). In a communiqué, signed by its immediate past President and the General Secretary, Mr. Abubakar Mahmoud (SAN), and Mr. Abiola Olagunju, respectively, NBA demanded that the government and the citizenry must always obey court order. The communique read in part, “The conference completely rejects the presidential statement subordinating the rule of law to national security. The NBA restates that the rule of law is central to a democracy and any national security concerns by the government must be managed within the perimeters and parameters of the rule of law. “As a corollary, conference frowns upon the present growing trend whereby government decides on which court orders to obey. “The court has exclusive duty under a democratic dispensation to interpret the Constitution and other laws, and government and the citizenry must comply with court orders at all times until set aside.” The communique also addressed various topical national issues bordering on the economy and the judiciary. It stated, “The conference emphatically objects to the issuance of the Executive Orders in respect to matters already in court and observes that any such order is a breach of the principle of separation of powers; and counsels that Executive Orders be issued for good governance and to manage operations of government, and not to encroach or usurp upon the constitutional powers of other arms of government, lest Executive Orders become attempts at decree-making.” The NBA called for adequate funding and improved welfare for police personnel, saying serious consideration should be given to calls for state police, but with safeguards to prevent abuse. It also enjoined government to ensure free and fair electoral processes. http://dailypost.ng/2018/09/01/nba-finally-reacts-buharis-comment-rule-law/ |

Shut up, eternal zombie. I can confidently speak on this one because my sister, uncle and all their office staff who are lawyers were at the conference. If you need proof that she was there, I will post it here. Did you go to the conference? No! Lawyers, judges and others who were present there and who are a gazillion times more educated than you have spoken but you're speaking showing your foolishness everywhere. I wanted to say "May God deliver you", but even God appears to have given up on you. My sister said Osibanjo, Sanusi, Ghana president and Feminism Falana spoke so reasonably and were well articulated except Buhari and the ever crazy Lai Mohammed who was almost booed offstage. sarrki: 2 Likes |

The rule of law is the foundation of a just and egalitarian society, everyone must rise to defend it. ...and Yes, National Security should not be toyed with. The problem is that a despot and tyrant could hide under this to clamp his detractors into the dungeon while willfully disregarding court orders. Nigerians have more than enough examples and may not want to tread that path again By the way, one would have expected Prof.Osinbajo to properly guide the president on matters relating to law. 2 Likes |

"The Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) on Friday rejected President Muhammadu Buhari’s comment that national security was superior to rule of law..." Dont worry that was narrative the satanic character-Napoleon in the famous George Orwell's classic ANIMAL FARM kept feeding his fellow animals who foolishly kicked out Snowball that have much earlier understood his antics & fought to prevent it but they joined Napoleon to chase away Snowball only to thereafter start their journey into a horrible slavery. Nothing is dangerous politically as absolute powers in the hand of a tyrannt with ignorant supporters. |
