While Rivers State&#8217;s Sole Administrator, Rear Admiral Ibok-Ete Ibas (retd), suggested that unmet financial commitments played a role in the venue change, Adeyanju, a member of the NBA&#8217;s Citizens\u2019 Liberties Committee, vehemently refuted the claims.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">However, Adeyanju&#8217;s efforts to dismiss the issue have backfired, particularly after he acknowledged that the NBA did receive N300m from the Rivers State Government, then led by Governor Siminalayi Fubara, now suspended.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Sources told our correspondent in confidence that the amount was specifically earmarked to secure hosting rights for the 2025 AGC, directly contradicting Adeyanju&#8217;s assertion that &#8220;the concept of hosting rights&#8230;has no basis in NBA tradition.&#8221;<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">While Adeyanju insists the venue change was solely due to factors like infrastructure, logistics, security, and overall suitability, his admission of the N300m contribution has ignited serious questions about transparency and potential undue influence. His subsequent justification that the NBA would not &#8220;lend legitimacy&#8221; to the current &#8220;unconstitutional&#8221; governance in Rivers State by hosting the AGC there has further fueled suspicion that the previously accepted funds became problematic under the new political climate.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Critics are now questioning the ethical implications of initially accepting such a large sum if no binding agreement for hosting rights existed, as Adeyanju claims. The revelation directly contradicts his statement that &#8220;There is no bidding or contractual process that grants any state the right to host the AGC.&#8221;<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">The comparison Adeyanju drew with the 2023 AGC in Abuja, stating it received no funding from the Federal Capital Territory, is also facing scrutiny. This has raised concerns about potential double standards and the true nature of financial dealings between the NBA and potential host states.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">The unfolding scandal threatens to severely damage the NBA&#8217;s reputation as an impartial institution, with accusations of financial impropriety and politically motivated decisions gaining traction.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">The legal community and the wider public are demanding a clear explanation regarding the purpose and handling of the N300m, and whether it played any role, directly or indirectly, in the contentious relocation of the 2025 AGC. This messy affair has cast a significant shadow over the NBA&#8217;s integrity and its commitment to its stated principles.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Nigerians have taken to social media, particularly under Adeyanju&#8217;s Facebook posts, to express their anger and demand answers.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">#Sylva Dannana questioned Adeyanju&#8217;s authority and the NBA&#8217;s transparency, writing: \u201cOga abeg rest, did NBA collect or dem no collect? The last time I checked, Deji Adeyanju is a baby lawyer who was called to the bar less than two years ago, that does not qualify you to be a stakeholder. Besides, you are not the NBA President, so what are you defending? Let the president come out to defend the NBA.\u201d<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">#Oguche A Oguche called for accountability, stating: \u201cThe money neither belongs to Fubara nor Ibok so, they should endeavour to refund it. If Nigerians believe that judiciary is corrupt, NBA shouldn\u2019t be left out.\u201d<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">#Idara Aniedi mocked Adeyanju&#8217;s perceived influence, commenting: \u201cSomeone that&#8217;s barely two years as a lawyer is a stakeholder in NBA, chai NBA is finish kpatakpata.\u201d<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">#Samad Orijeminiyi emphasized the need for the NBA to return the funds if the conference was moved, stating: \u201cI think what\u2019s important is whether Rivers State\u2019s N300m meant to support the NBA for the holding of the Conference in Port Harcourt is still with the NBA or not. If the NBA has changed the venue for any reason whatsoever; it is not justifiable to hold on to the money and not return it, to Rivers. Simple as ABC. NBA cannot spend or hold on to the money under any guise, then pretend to have integrity.\u201d<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Deji Adeyanju is a lawyer, social critic, and human rights activist known for his vocal stance on governance issues and advocacy for change.<\/div>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Lizzy Chirkpi A firestorm of criticism has engulfed the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) following allegations of a contentious N300m payment by the Rivers State government for hosting the 2025&hellip;<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":117444,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-117443","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.8 -
