— ECNBA delays voting

By Henry Ojelu

The Electoral Committee of the Nigerian Bar Association, ECNBA, has announced an indefinite delay in the commencement of voting for the 2026 NBA National Elections following what it described as a coordinated cyberattack on its electronic voting platform.

Voting was scheduled to commence at 12:00 a.m. on Saturday, July 18, 2026, but failed to start as planned after the electoral body said external actors targeted the platform in an apparent attempt to compromise the integrity of the election.
