Welcome Message
Dear Esteemed Colleagues,
It is with a deep sense of purpose and pride that I welcome you all to Ilorin, the serene capital of Kwara State, for the National Executive Council Meeting of the Nigerian Bar Association.
This gathering of the Bar’s leadership is more than a statutory convergence — it is a reaffirmation of our shared responsibility to uphold the dignity of our profession and confront, with clarity and courage, the evolving challenges of justice delivery in Nigeria. The task before us demands introspection, foresight, and unity of purpose.

“The future of the Bar depends not on structures, but on the strength of our shared resolve.”
Ilorin, with its rich heritage and spirit of hospitality, provides the perfect backdrop for these crucial conversations. I urge us all to approach our deliberations with openness, resolve, and an unwavering commitment to the ideals that bind us as learned men and women.
As we engage, let us think beyond today. Let us plant seeds for a more responsive, respected, and reformed Bar — one that is truly reflective of the nobility of our calling.
I wish you safe travels, meaningful dialogue, and a memorable stay.
Respectfully,
Aare Olumuyiwa Akinboro, SAN
