1.0 Preamble As we gradually approach the NBA National Officers elections slated for July 29, 2020, we deem it imperative that we keep our esteemed members informed and clarified on salient issues that may impact on the electoral process.

1.0    LIST OF PROPERLY NOMINATED CANDIDATES In accordance with the provisions of the Nigerian Bar Association Constitution 2015 (as Amended) and upon the conclusion of nominations, screening and appeals processes, the ECNBA presents the full list of properly nominated candidates cleared to contest the NBA National Officers Elections for the year 2020.

 The compilation of the Voters Register for the NBA 2020 National elections commenced from the publication of the ECNBA Election Guidelines on the 21st day of April 2020. The said publication gave notice to all Branch Chairmen to submit the names of their members who had paid their Bar Practice fees and Branch Dues as at 31st March 2020 and to submit proof of the payments.

The attention of the ECNBA has been drawn to certain information making the round that the ECNBA and or the NBA commissioned a survey of members of the Association as to who their choice of the President of the Association is or should be. This, 

The attention of the ECNBA has been drawn to certain statements to the effect that the names of members of the Abuja branch of the NBA were being maliciously excluded and or omitted from the voters register by the ECNBA. Nothing can be farther from the truth.
