Lawyers Kick As Court Breaks Monopoly Of Nigeria Bar Association by Abujaexpress(op): 2:38pm On Jan 24, 2024
A Federal High Court sitting in Abuja has ordered the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC) to approve the registration of the Nigerian Law Society (NLS).

The order for the approval of registration for NLS gives Lawyers in the country a new professional body.

NLS is a rival association to the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) which has existed as the sole law association since 1933.

The order allows for the registration of “The Nigerian Law Society,” “Nigerian Bar Society,” “Nigerian Lawyers’ Society” and “The Association of Legal Practitioners of Nigeria.”

Not bad. Freedom of association is a constitutionally guaranteed right.

No mind the idiots. They go to Courts over the decades to defend freedom of association, now they went to Court to oppose freedom of association.
