The Gadzama-led NBA-SARC constituted by the NBA President, Mr. Olumide Akpata at the National Executive Council meeting of Thursday, December 16th, 2021 and inaugurated on Friday, January 7th, 2022, has hit the ground running.
Recall that the NBA-SARC was born as a child of necessity due to the recurring trend of maltreatments of legal practitioners by security operatives whilst discharging official duties and obligations to clients. The NBA-SARC will be an interface comprised of Legal Practitioners with a rich background and prime networking within Security Agencies to work in close liaison with all Security Agencies across the country.
The Committee has since hit the ground running intervening in the several cases amongst which is the case of one Mr. Israel Lagbamue of the NBA Badagry Branch, Lagos State, who sometime in March, 2021, allegedly stood surety for a client in respect of a probate matter which is presently pending in Court.
It was gathered that while Mr. Lagbame’s client refused to return to the police station for the continuation of investigation, Mr. Lagbame traveled to Abuja for another matter at the Nigerian Police Force headquarters where he ran into the Investigating Police Officers (IPO) in his client’s investigation, who immediately arrested and brought Mr. Lagbame to the Force Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department (FCIID) Area 10, Garki Abuja, where he was detained.
The Committee promptly interfaced with the Nigerian Police Force and through the efforts of the NBA-SARC, Mr. Israel Lagbamue Esq who had since been released has sent a message of appreciation to the Committee.
Dated January 25, 2022.
SIGNED:
J-K Gadzama
Chairman,
NBA-SARC.
