Which day I go Abuja, somebody from Niger republic dae challenge me, u won't believe the side my fellow country men from the other side choose to support.

They choose a Nigerien over me coz he speaks hausa

Brother I feel your pain seriously and that shows you what this country is. I just wish people would call a spade a spade. We will never be anything more than a mere geographical expression.

egopersonified:
Hope you guys can see that it is very easy to divide this country. Just two weeks they have formed another NBA. If the north wants to break up this country, it won't take them one month.

Yes ooo

They have the numbers

As the rest are divided - one section is dangerously plain and ambitious - while the other is dangerously diplomatic and banal

Toscarel:
To think that the northern lawyers passed through the same school as others.
Educating people from that part is like pouring water on a rock. They would always go back to factory settings.

Haaaaaa

North first agitated for Arewa republic in 1963 because Nnamdi Azikiwe was the leader, on conference to give them the independent a British ambassador Mr. Mathins advise them not to pull out because British is going to use them against other Nigerians which will benefit them by holding on power.

But when other want to seceed it become taboo.

They have done it today and no one see it as evil but when south East lawyers will do the same the NBA will request for their head.

Are Lawyers from Plateau, Benue, Kogi part of the northern NBA?

Las Las, it will still be NBA but this time, Northern Bar Association.

JidennaJason:
Another clear example to tell you that the northerners are always in a "REVERSE MODE"

They see Akpata as a threat to their "Shari'a" type of law.

It would be difficult for us to move forward as a nation when we have this backward thinking people at the helms of affair.

Akpata wasn't NBA President when the decision was taken to invite El-Rufai as a speaker. He also wasn't President when that decision was reversed. Akpata is trying to calm a storm left for him by his predecessor.

Don't make comments like "northerners are always in REVERSE MODE" or refer to northerners as "backward thinking people" else you are no better than or different from the people you speak against. They have their religion and culture as much as you have yours.

A lot of northern lawyers supported the move to disinvite El-Rufai. Even those that did not support the move, understood and accepted the decision. Only a tiny fragment of northern lawyers are part of the move to set up a new bar association.

It isn't right to make sweeping statements about an entire ethnic group.

Coldie:

If there was a third world country that succeeded through diverse ethnic groups of strangers u won't know that such a thing could have been possible.

Most developed countries were once underdeveloped.

Infact the best way to develop a country is through diverse ethnic groups full of strangers. If there's just one people that's the majority. It would be that one ethnic group that's the majority vs the rest of the strangers

it's 2020 Africa is yet to show that there is some form of intelligent life in the continent. Everything we know, we were taught by Europeans. Our educational curriculum, our medical system, everything about technology, from cars to the phones you are using. Even if in the future we learn how to make phones or anything at all, it will be because we went abroad to learn or they came to teach us. What more can I say. Do you have any proof or reason to believe the AVERAGE African man is not naturally backward and unintelligent? It's cool to be optimistic but sometimes realism is a better diagnosis.

And Akpata's predecessor was a Muslim? IT'S VERY HARD FOR NUT-HEADED BEING TO THINK

The !diots want to divide NBA like they divided Kaduna. It's a matter of time, Nigeria will follow suit.

This issue should have been managed from inception .politics,Religions and Ethnic bigot has polarized everything in Nigeria . where was the conscience of NBA members before El_ Rufais name was pen down before publication and invitation extended to him? But they later withdrew it publicly and you expect people that come from his region to keep quiet. Majority of people supported Buhari simply not because of his competency but he is their person . some support Tinubu because is their person not because he is a saint ,some celebrating convicted Kalu,Alamehisia, and the rest Ibori because is their Tribe person even KANU who has nothing sensible to offer than Hate and division has his celebrated supporters simply because he is their tribe man . why are they now blaming another bigots lawyers that formed parallel group while we all Nigerians celebrating the same things these lawyers are celebrating? WE MAY NOT HAVE CONTROL OVER WHAT HAPPEN TO US BUT WE CAN HAVE CONTROL OF OUR ATTITUDES. CHANGE IS POSSIBLE WHEN WE ALL READY TO CHANGE.

Kenn55:
This is why Nigeria will never make progress as a nation. There is never a national interest, it is all ethnic and tribal interest

This is even better for the south. If they can extend this division to other things, it makes disintegration of this unworkable entity called Nigeria is easier

National interest died a long long time ago that is if it ever existed at all. Today National interest must =Northern interest.

If some Northern lawyer thinks foolishly that they can break away from what is on ground, then I see no justifiable reason why Biafra should be forced to stay. Those mumu lawyers should be called to order by the NBA and not this petting statement they are making. stern measure needs to be taken

We are gradually moving to the promised Land. Biafra and Oduduwa kingdom.

So, have you been able to define the relationship between Wike and Akpata?

Make we kukuma divide this country,the north should go their way

AnanseK:


You should just welcome the division and carry on with you Southern Nigeria And Christian Bar Association ( SNCBA).
Unless you are also myopic. You may even have your Southern Nigeria Republic sooner than you expect.

I guess that is the ultimate objective of all the hate and all the hostility and venom of the South, isn’t it?

Who is mentioning hostility here? Same people that kill their neighbors at random ? Abeg just go check yourself .. after all I dont see any meaningful contribution from any lawyer from your end.. or is there any? I just wonder if they really passed through law school. Or I forgot. SHARIA and QUOTA SYSTEM LAWYERS

Creation of "ANAN" in our sister profession NBA loading.

For more details about ANAN creation, contact an ICAN member that qualified in its early days for the details as you may not find the true reason for its creation on the internet.

Note : reason not exactly same as in the case of proposed NNBA and NBA.

They don't want the country to divide because of oil in the south. And they have succeeded in destroying our refineries.

According to you, the northerners who are protesting against attempt to base invitations of the association to it conferences on religion and regional biases are the ones in reverse mode. What about those people that started sabotaging the process of the whole country immediately it got independence to ensure it pakistanization and who have never relented on accomplishing their mission up to date. They are walking the country in the forward mode!
Just go back and read what that lawyer from the pigs Republic has said; then judge your self on which people are looking for opportunities to move in reverse mode in the country.
By the way, Shari'ah Law has been there before Akpaka great grandparents were created and it's going to outlive the lives of his millions times generations to come. Who cares if you people create your own Christian or cultists law.

I hope this is a step towards the breakup of this country. Gradually we will get there. New country or back to regional government. The way things are now is not working.

Esseite:
Nigeria has never been fixated on religion or tribe this bad..Something obviously triggered this, something changed..

Buhari

Gradually, everyone goes their own way.

You are a bigot

Yes, just as much a bigot as those Northern lawyers you abuse.

Honestly , some of you people need to leave your villages .

And before you start, I have seen a lot of evil from Northerner. I have seen a lot of bigotry, but I have also seen a lot of good.

Honestly, this site called Nairaland is home to a lot of bigots from the North and the South who use this site's annonimity to pour more kerosene on an already burning fire.

Modified...and before anyone starts, I happen to agree with the NBA ban of el rufai, and also think the new organisation is an over reaction to something that can be solved peacefully

you hv no point.

You are all the same.
He who lives by the sword dies by the sword

Codes151:

You are all the same.
He who lives by the sword dies by the sword

Yeah, sure, especially as I am not into swords or using them.

But if someone abuses your religion and tribe, I'll also call him a bigot as well

It's the kind of person I am. I'll stand against anti Muslim and anti Christian and anti pagan and anti atheist bigotry. As well as bigotry based on any tribe and race. I can do that because it is the right thing and even if it means I am the only one there so be it.

I must have no hate or bitterness towards anyone

Good morning

Mike Ezekome should relax and not lose sleep over this. The calabash has shown naturally where the rope must be tied. These worthless northern people with no brains thinks they are the next thing that make Nigeria tick. Their anahilation is at hand for all the atrocities they have done since 1914 to date. God is given them to misbehave for this to happen. Their time is definitely up and their will be no mercy for these evil people. If the south can only see that Nigeria is not compulsory among the anals of nations and sesseed sharp sharp, the better. These people are unrepentant malaise to everywhere the go and everything they touch. South must unit if at all for anything but for this reason.
