ALLEGED BREACH OF RULES OF PROFESSIONAL CONDUCT BY ANTHONY ERUAGA ESQ.

Dear Colleagues,

The attention of the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) was recently drawn to a 'Reversal Order' purportedly made by a certain Notary Public - Anthony Idanosi Eruaga Esq., directing a commercial bank to reverse funds allegedly erroneously paid into a customer's account.

By this act, the said Anthony Idanosi Eruaga, Esq seemed to assume judicial powers not ordinarily exercisable by Notaries Public.


The leadership of the NBA frowns at such conduct, and wishes to state that it will investigate same and keep members informed about the outcome and further actions to be taken. 

The NBA reiterates that it will continue to take every step to ensure that the Legal Profession is not brought to disrepute, and accordingly appeals to all lawyers to kindly desist from all actions that are likely to bring dishonour to the Legal Profession. 


Dr. Rapulu Nduka

Publicity Secretary,

Nigerian Bar Association.
