This was the outcome of the most recent NEC quarterly meeting, which took place in Jos.
The caretaker committee comprises of Ben Oji of the Warri Branch, Funke Aderemi of the Ilorin Branch, Yakubu Philemon, SAN of the Abuja Branch, and Eva Amadi of the Port Harcourt Branch.

The committee was also mandated to withdraw all court cases filed by the removed SPIDEL leaders.
The NBA NEC further proscribed the Forum of Body of vice chairmen and any other forum or body unknown to the NBA constitution.
Additionally, the NEC passed a vote of confidence on the NBA executive committee led by President Yakubu Chonoko Maikyau (SAN).

Maikyau had accused SPIDEL chairman, John Aikpokpo-Martins of taking unauthorised actions beyond the section’s mandate.
He consequently ordered officials to halt activities pending a meeting on February 1st.
Meanwhile, the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) has scheduled its 2024 national officers’ elections to take place on July 20.
