The Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) appears poised to proceed with its national elections, despite the legal hurdles and internal disputes that had threatened to derail the process.
As a mark of its preparedness, the Electoral Committee of the NBA (ECNBA), on June 18, released a detailed list of legal practitioners cleared to contest the poll scheduled for July 20.
The publication contained the curriculum vitae, manifestoes, and approved campaign materials of all candidates who submitted the requested documents before the deadline expired on June 6.
According to information made available by the ECNBA, a total of 35 candidates were cleared to contest various national offices in the association.
