FIERY RIGHTS ACTIVIST, MONDAY UBANI APPOINTED CHAIR OF NBA ELECTORAL REFORM C’TE
- CO-OPTED AS NBA NEC MEMBER
Dr. Monday Onyekachi Ubani, SAN has been appointed by the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) President, Mr. Afam Osigwe, SAN as chairman of the Electoral Reform Committee (NBA-ERC).
Promotion of democratic norms is one of the core objectives of the NBA. The committee is therefore charged with the task of improving the responsiveness of electoral processes to public expectations and democratic ideals.
In addition, Ubani has been co-opted into the NBA National Executive Council (NBA-NEC) to contribute to the growth and development of NBA. NEC meetings bring together Bar leaders to tackle the most pressing issues facing the legal profession.
The appointment of the fiery human rights advocate to carry out these key functions is seen by many NBA watchers as both timely and well-deserved. It also validates his consistent effort to impact the future of the legal profession in Nigeria and globally.
Ubani is the Principal Partner of the full-service law firm of Ubani & Co., established in 1992. He was a former Chairman of NBA Ikeja Branch between 2012 and 2014. He was subsequently elected as NBA 2nd National Vice President from 2016 to 2018. As the Chairman of NBA Section on Public Interest and Development Law (NBA-SPIDEL) from 2021 to 2023, he again left indelible marks by way of achievements.
