Alegeh, in a congratulatory message, commended Adesina, a past general secretary, and Ajibade, who contested for the office of president, for their maturity and candour, urging them, as true leaders of the Bar, to work with Akpata in his efforts to make the association better.
Alegeh said the elections were over; hence the need for all to come together as a family to offer their support, advice and encouragement to the newly elected national officers to enable them succeed in the task of delivering on the core mandate of the Bar. “We must appreciate the fact that without electronic voting, it would not have been possible for us to hold this election during this COVID-19 pandemic. We must keep improving our electronic voting system.”
Akpata, a former chairman of NBA Section on Business Law, was declared winner by Chairman of the Electoral Committee, Tawo Tawo , around 12:52 am yesterday, having scored the highest number of votes cast and satisfied the provisions of the NBA constitution.
