A leading aspirant for the position of Nigerian Bar Associaiton (NBA), Port Harcourt chairman, Mrs. Cordelia Eke has finally thrown her hat into the ring by picking nomination form for the forthcoming election.

In a statement obtained by CITY LAWYER, the ranking Director in the Rivers State Ministry of Justice wrote: “I have now picked up Electoral nomination forms for the office of Chairman of the NBA Port Harcourt Branch, and have thus ceased all consultations on my intention.”

The Bar Leader also disowned any campaigns on her behalf until the ban is lifted, saying: “In the light of the above, no sticker with my photograph or other publication on my intention should be posted on any social media platform or regular print media.”

Below is the full text of the statement.

DISCLAIMER

Distinguished Colleagues, I would like to express my profound appreciation and gratitude to you all for your kind words, prayers, advice, and other feedback during my consultations in the past few months. kindly take notice that at the end of the consultations, I have now picked up Electoral nomination forms for the office of Chairman of the NBA Port Harcourt Branch, and have thus ceased all consultations on my intention.

In the light of the above, no sticker with my photograph or other publication on my intention should be posted on any social media platform or regular print media. I, therefore, withdraw my consent on any such publication in this regard. I shall not be held liable for any publication or enlightenment purportedly done on my behalf, as anyone who does so would be doing that on his or her own accord.

I remain grateful to all my well wishers and team members for their encouragement and support and pledge to abide by directives from the ELECO in line with the Uniform Bye-Laws. Thank you, and God bless.

Dated this 5th Day of April 2024.
