Federal Government persistently assaulted the rule of law in 2019 – Nigerian Bar Association

The Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) has accused the federal government of persistently undermining the rule of law in 2019 through what it describes as "executive misbehaviour and high-handedness.” Paul Usoro, NBA president, in his New Year’s message, emphasized that without a genuine commitment to the rule of law, peace and justice cannot prevail in the country.
