Dear Esteemed Members of the Nigerian Bar Association,
As we usher in the New Year, it is with unwavering hope that I extend my warmest greetings to you all. The past year was undoubtedly trying for the legal profession and saw many members of the public questioning the integrity of the legal profession and its commitment to justice, the rule of law, and the betterment of our society.
As legal practitioners in Nigeria, we have faced and continue to face challenges that have tested our resolve, but it is our dedication and perseverance that will continue to see us through. Our collective efforts have contributed significantly to the shaping of our legal system and the safeguarding of the rights and freedoms of our fellow citizens.
As we embark on this new year, let us continue to strive for excellence in all our endeavours. Let us be guided by the principles of fairness, integrity, and professional ethics, as we work not only for the advancement of our profession but also for the progress of our beloved nation.
May this year bring new opportunities for growth and success. May we continue to be inspired by the values that bind us as members of the Nigerian Bar Association.
I wish you all a prosperous and fulfilling New Year.
CHUKWUKA IKWUAZOM, SAN
Chairman, Nigerian Bar Association Security Agencies Relations Committee (NBA-SARC)
