WE WILL NOT EXTEND VOTER VERIFICATION – ECNBA

The Electoral Committee of the Nigerian Bar Association (ECNBA) has foreclosed reopening of the verification process for eligible voters in the forthcoming NBA Elections, CITY LAWYER can authoritatively report.

Some stakeholders including one of the leading candidates for the position of General Secretary, Mr. Desmond Yamah, had called on the committee to extend the exercise to enable some eligible voters who are having challenges to verify their data.

But an unimpeachable source told CITY LAWYER that the verification exercise has been foreclosed, adding that the committee has moved on to the next stage of the electoral process.

Said the source, “No extension. We are in another phase of (verifying) accuracy of phone numbers and emails.”

It is recalled that the committee had in its last notice urged eligible voters to verify their details on the database, saying, “As a matter of urgency and importance, we are enjoined to make out time to get verified to enable us cast our votes at the upcoming National Elections of the NBA. The deadline for the Verification is today 27/6/2022.”

The election of NBA National Officers and representatives to the General Council of he Bar is scheduled to hold on Saturday, July 16, 2022.

DESMOND YAMAH HAILS ECNBA, WANTS VOTER VERIFICATION EXTENDED

Desmond Yamah, candidate for the office of the General Secretary, has appealed to the Electoral Committee of the Nigerian Bar Association (ECNBA) to extend the date for verification of eligible voters.

Yamah observed that many of the eligible voters are still struggling to verify their data on the NBA website after several attempts.

His words: “We appreciate the enormous responsibilities and the challenges of the ECNBA but the verification exercise is a test of the level of preparedness for the elections.

“I sincerely thank the ECNBA for a great job thus far.”

Desmond Yamah Esq.

VERIFICATION: ECNBA EXTENDS DEADLINE, CITES MASSIVE LAWYERS’ INTEREST

The Electoral Committee of the Nigerian Bar Association (ECNBA) has extended the deadline for lawyers verify their profiles for the forthcoming NBA Elections.

In an ECNBA Statement No. 015 titled “Extension of verification exercise” and signed by the committee Secretary, Mrs. Cordelia Eke, the electoral body stated that the verification exercise will now end barely three days to the election on Sunday, July 26, 2020.

Though the electoral committee had initially extended the deadline to yesterday, it stated that the latest extension was informed by “a huge increase in the number of Lawyers seeking to carry out their verification on the NBA Portal.”

According to the ECNBA, “The deadline for verification of Voters is now extended to 6.00PM on Sunday 26th July 2020. Eligible Voters are advised to take advantage of this further extension to get verified. Previously verified voters are required to log in to their portals and update their information, especially their contact details to ensure they have smooth access to the portal and are able to receive important information pertaining to the Voting exercise.”

Though the NBA Constitution (as amended) mandates the ECNBA to publish the voters’ register and deliver same to branches latest 28 days to the election, the register has been beset by several challenges, even as some names were duplicated. This has necessitated a clean-up of the register alongside the verification exercise.

While the committee had earlier set a deadline to end the verification exercise, this became untenable due to several complaints regarding the cumbersome nature of the process.

Below is the full text of the ECNBA statement.

EXTENSION OF VERIFICATION EXERCISE

The ECNBA has observed that in the wake of the publication of its Statement No.14 extending the date of verification of Voters, there has been a huge increase in the number of Lawyers seeking to carry out their verification on the NBA Portal. The ECNBA has therefore decided to give a further extension of the date for verification of Voters.

The deadline for verification of Voters is now extended to 6.00PM on Sunday 26th July 2020. Eligible Voters are advised to take advantage of this further extension to get verified. Previously verified voters are required to log in to their portals and update their information, especially their contact details to ensure they have smooth access to the portal and are able to receive important information pertaining to the Voting exercise.

The NBA Help desks are still available to provide support for the verification exercise for those who require same.

Thank you all for your continued cooperation.

Dated this 20th day of July 2020.

Cordelia U. Eke (Mrs.)
Secretary, ECNBA
