IKEAZOR AKARAIWE, SAN ENDORSES DR. RAPULU NDUKA FOR THE OFFICE OF GENERAL SECRETARY

Over the years, I have come to know Dr. Rapulu Nduka as a committed Bar man, a diligent legal practitioner and a dependable colleague. It is therefore with great pleasure that I endorse him for the office of General Secretary of the Nigerian Bar Association.

My confidence in Dr. Nduka is borne out of experience. As National Publicity Secretary of the NBA, he was outstanding. He was accessible, responsive and proactive, and he discharged the responsibilities of that office with dedication and admirable professionalism. He demonstrated that he understands what it means to serve lawyers and to keep the Association connected with its members.

I also know Dr. Nduka in legal practice. I have watched him in court and have seen firsthand his preparation, industry and professionalism. He is an accomplished lawyer whose commitment to excellence extends beyond the courtroom into service to the Bar.

The office of General Secretary demands experience, administrative competence, responsiveness and a genuine commitment to members. From what I know of Dr. Rapulu Nduka, I have no doubt that he possesses these qualities. I am convinced that the NBA Secretariat will be better organised, more efficient and more responsive under his leadership.

For these reasons, Dr. Rapulu Nduka is my preferred candidate for the office of General Secretary of the Nigerian Bar Association. I wholeheartedly endorse his candidacy and respectfully urge members of our great Association across all branches to vote for him.

I am confident that he will justify the confidence reposed in him and serve the Nigerian Bar Association with integrity, competence and distinction.
