Dear Members and Friends of NBA-SPIDEL,
It is with deep warmth and genuine admiration that I extend my goodwill to you as you convene in Uyo from 1st to 5th December 2025 for this year’s Annual Conference.
The theme, “A Banner Without Stain: Justice, Accountability and Development”, resonates profoundly with the ethos of SPIDEL and its unwavering commitment to public interest lawyering.
This gathering offers yet another opportunity for thoughtful engagement, a space where ideas can be exchanged boldly, collaborations strengthened, and collective resolve renewed. I trust that your conversations will enrich our pursuit of justice, strengthen governance frameworks, and reinforce the protection of human rights across our nation.

I commend the dedication of the Conference Planning Committee, the hospitality of the Uyo host community, and the unwavering commitment of every member who continues to uphold the values that give meaning to our profession: integrity, service, and responsibility.
May this conference inspire purposeful action, deepen our shared commitment, and ensure that the banner we raise for justice and accountability remains — now and always — without stain.
Prof. Foluke Dada-Lawanson
