BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA: ANY LESSON FOR NBA ELECTION?

Be that as it may, can the prophesy of the founding fathers of Nigeria nay NBA said to be fulfilled? Re-reading CAMA after numerous bouncing of an IT name by a CAC verifying officer, it downed on me that NBA is expected to recommend a member to the membership of CAC-See Section 2(c) CAMA. Has this member being representing the interest of lawyers who CAC is making their daily bread expensive and in some cases are daily denied daily bread? The RG despite being a lawyer is  politically appointed and may not cross the minister, but this NBA nominee’s presence has not been felt with regards to the welfare of lawyers; the harsh working conditions in CAC and the secrete cult like secrecy about when CAC is moving to Maitama. I will stage a city wide protest should CAC sneak to Maitama without one month notice to her customers. Forget the rumours making rounds that the movement to Maitam is put on hold because the “brand new computers and other office equipment in Maitama have refused to respond to stimulus. CAC must do the test run the RG promised at Sheraton Hotel during the Customers Forum reported in September Edition of CAC News Magazine. That there has been silence of the drums of inefficiency in CAC does not mean anything has improved. I just took a poverty induced fasting and it may last two weeks, during which I will try siddon look at the hydra headed incompetency masquerading as the ruling class not only in CAC but the whole Nigeria.   In fact Nigeria is as sick as CAC. Since Monday the 20^th of October 2008, those Mongo Pack HP computers are behaving like a worn out colonial master’s typewriter. It takes CAC staff over 4 days to dispatch a notice of denial from the RG’s office to the customer service. IT availability comes out as regular as an irregular woman’s monthly visitor yet the administrators of CAC are less concerned. Same can be said about the dilapidated state of infrastructures in Nigeria. A country so blessed by God and who while resting on the seventh day after delivering us from Abacha, dosed off and the devil in the image of PDP sowed a seed of bad leadership.

Meanwhile, can the upcoming Unity Bar election be said to be run on issues and the content of the character of the candidates or is there a PDP like egg waiting to hatch and impose a lame chairman/Exco?  As I write, a good number of the names of those contesting for various posts are shrouded like a whore in pudah. Any good fish starts decaying from the head hence I have been sniffing about those whose names were echoed as running for the Chairmanship of Unity Bar.

Marginalised Juniors at the Bar (MJB) overwhelmingly endorses the candidature of one Abdul Ibrahim Esq. as against H.E.Shekaru.Esq. MJB’s overwhelming voice vote against H.E.Shekaru’s was not based on the bush telegram report about her inability to produce the required number of practicing fees receipts but on a concrete petition made available to MJB by a junior (now a senior) that worked in her office in 2002, to the effect that she is owing him for 6 months at the slavery sum of 5,000 per month. We use this opportunity to call on all juniors to document all evils any senior is meting out to them, for the day of reckoning is coming.  Like Martain Luther Jr. I have a dream that the day the written opinion of juniors in the chambers of any SAN aspirant will count heavily in the award of SAN is coming; a day your client’s recommendation will weigh against you, after all most seniors will not think twice before refusing to give a junior a reference letter. Clients know those lawyers who do not give transport to their juniors; encourage their juniors to collect bribe for the “judge” which only ends in the senior’s ill bloated stomach. Also MJB wants a manifesto night done for all the contestants so that lawyers can sip down and sieve the rhetoric of rabble rousers and separate Paul from Barnabas.
