Why are you the candidate the Bar must vote for? The Nigerian Bar Association is passing through a very crucial and challenging phase. In order for the Bar to make its required impact, it must re-assert and re-position itself, and it can only do so if it is united. There is polarisation along zonal lines, along ideological lines, between Seniors and Juniors, between radicals, progressives and conservatives; between the privileged and the less privileged; we need a unifying factor; we need a bridge-builder, we need a person whose acceptance cuts across ethnic lines, cuts across the board; not an ethnic warlord nor a regional champion but a national rallying point. I have my spread across the entire nation as an active practitioner who has criss-crossed courts in all parts of the Federation and as a committed Bar man who has established genuine friendship over the years with lawyers from all parts of the country for the sake of friendship not for the sake of elections.
