Distinguished NEC Members,
As we depart from our various locations for the National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting in Enugu, Enugu State, I wish you all journey mercies. This NEC meeting is the first of the present administration under our President, Mazi Afam Osigwe, SAN. I also warmly welcome you to the last quarter NEC meeting of our association, set to take place in the ever-vibrant Coal City.
Our NEC meetings serve as a platform for making significant policy decisions that impact our members and the association as a whole, in line with our Constitution. I pray for God’s guidance, wisdom, and direction to lead us through the plenary session, enabling us to arrive at decisions that will strengthen our association.
The NEC also offers us a valuable opportunity to network and interact with our colleagues from other branches across the country. I encourage everyone to make the most of this gathering and to appreciate the beauty of Enugu, a city full of history and energy.

The choice of Enugu as the venue for this NEC meeting is a well-thought-out decision. I encourage all of us to explore the sights and sounds of this capital city of the South-East. Enugu is safe, and the Organising Committee has taken necessary steps to ensure a memorable meeting. Please adhere to all security advisories from the Organising Committee.
To Mr. President, I say congratulations. You have made an excellent choice of venue. With your experience as a committed bar leader, I am confident that this meeting will mark the beginning of a revitalized, proactive era for our association.
Once again, I welcome you to the serene and welcoming city of Enugu for the NBA NEC. I wish us all fruitful deliberations and, upon conclusion, safe travels back to our respective destinations.
Thank you, and may God bless us all.
