FOUR CHAIRMEN (PAST AND SERVING) OF NBA-SBL ENDORSE TOBENNA EROJIKWE

In a remarkable display of unity and confidence, four chairmen of the Nigerian Bar Association Section on Business Law (NBA-SBL), spanning both past and present leadership, have thrown their collective weight behind Tobenna Erojikwe’s bid for the NBA presidency. This unprecedented show of support from leaders of the NBA’s most prestigious section signals a potential game-changer in the upcoming election.

The endorsements come from a distinguished lineup of legal luminaries:

1. Dr. Adeoye Adefulu – Incumbent Chairman

2. Olumide Akpata – Chairman from August 2016 to August 2018

3. Seni Adio, SAN – Chairman from August 2018 to August 2020

4. Ayuli Jemide – Chairman from August 2020 to August 2022

 

The NBA-SBL, widely recognised as the association’s most dynamic and well-organised section, holds significant sway among in-house counsel, business lawyers, and commercially-oriented legal practitioners. As such, these endorsements carry substantial weight within the legal community, potentially influencing a large segment of the voting membership.

A recurring theme across all four endorsements is the portrayal of Erojikwe as an “uncommon reformer” and a “vanguard for progressive change.” The chairmen consistently highlight Erojikwe’s deep commitment to investing in people through capacity-building and similar initiatives, painting a picture of a candidate poised to drive meaningful transformation within the NBA.

The collective endorsement from these esteemed leaders is likely to resonate deeply within the legal community, particularly among members of the NBA-SBL, in-house counsel, and lawyers specialising in business law. It not only underscores Erojikwe’s credibility and capability but also suggests a strong consensus among key influencers about the direction the NBA should take.

As the election approaches, this unprecedented show of support from four consecutive NBA-SBL chairmen may well prove to be a pivotal moment in Erojikwe’s campaign. It sets a new benchmark for endorsements in NBA elections and could potentially sway undecided voters, especially those who value the opinion of these respected legal leaders.

The upcoming NBA election is poised to be a defining moment for the association, with the chosen leader expected to navigate the complex challenges facing the legal profession in Nigeria. These endorsements suggest that many see Erojikwe as uniquely qualified to lead this charge, potentially setting the stage for a transformative period in the NBA’s history.
