According to a Harvard paper, dispute resolution is the process of resolving a dispute or a conflict by meeting at least some of each side’s needs and addressing their interests. Dispute resolution strategies include fostering a rapport, considering interests and values separately, appealing to overarching values, and indirect confrontation.
In the 2018 Justice Needs and Satisfaction Survey in Nigeria conducted by the Hiil, about 25 million disputes arise in Nigeria every year. Also men encounter legal problems more often than women, which they pegged at a 74% to 71% ration. Also, people in the highest income group encounter legal problems more often than others, particularly the lowest income group.

However, are all these legal problems resolved? What is the impression of the average Nigerian to the dispute resolution mechanisms available. Are the Courts adequate? What role is ADR playing in all this and how can we ensure more user friendly justice systems in Nigeria?
All these and much more will be discussed at a session of the Annual General Conference of the Nigeria Bar Association. The session promises to be quite engaging and participants are encouraged to actively take part in the session.

Following a wave of conflicting court orders in the country recently, the Chief Justice of Nigeria (CJN), Hon. Justice Tanko Muhammad, demanded the records of proceedings in the suits. The development is sequel to the recent ex-parte decisions delivered by High Courts in three different states (River, Kebbi and Cross River) all of which border on the suspension or otherwise of the Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Mr. Uche Secondus, which again brought to the fore the nuisance of conflicting judgments by courts of coordinate jurisdiction, particularly on pre-election, post-election and political party leadership crisis.
According to the Guardian Newspapers, the NJC, saddled with the responsibility of upholding decency and discipline by judicial officers, needs to act fast, starting with full investigation of the three judges being referred to it, in order to salvage the battered image of the Judiciary. This ugly trend negates all known and acceptable laid down judicial principles, one of which forbids the further litigation of a subject matter involving the same parties and of the same issues.

Legal practitioners, being officers of the court, should be reminded of the nobility associated with the profession and conduct themselves in a manner characterized by candour and fairness. They should be reminded that a client has no right to demand that his lawyer do or refrain from doing anything repugnant to his lawyer’s sense of honour or propriety; and he is obliged to decline the conduct of a civil cause or to make a defence when convinced that it is intended merely to harass or injure the opposite party or to occasion a miscarriage of justice.
No doubt this was a very embarrassing moment for the Judiciary, and that’s why its important Lawyers thrash it out at the upcoming conference which starts on the 25th of October, 2021. Most certainly eminent members of the Bar and Bench will be on hand to contribute to the discussions. Save the date and time and make sure you participate.

The government needs to declare a state of emergency on what has now become a destitute orientation/mentality of her citizens. The National Orientation Agency needs to be revitalized and gets her tooth re-sharpened, and be swung into full action. The draft/template that has been designed to shape our orientation needs to be revisited and perhaps redesigned.
“Sixty years of nationhood provides an opportunity to ask ourselves question on the extent to which we have sustained the aspirations of our founding fathers. Where did we do the right things? Are we on course? If not where did we stray and how can we remedy and retrace our steps?”
These were the candid words of President Muhammadu Buhari in his speech marking the nation’s 60th anniversary. These words obviously speak to our collective essence, a crucial concern, I believe, we need to consider and reconsider, in tandem with our burning desire to attain our deserved greatness.

Come the 25th of October, 2021, the aforementioned topic is going to be the discuss at the first plenary session of the NBA Conference, and this conversation could not have come at a better time. To become an effective Nation, there are some attributes in which we must imbibe, one of which is for every Nigerian to take leadership in whatever sphere they find themselves and channel the collective energy into nation building.
To achieve such, both Leaders and followers must have a clear vision of the collective goal if there has to be any success. This principle can also be applied to several areas of business and personal life in Nigeria. It is also interesting to note that some of our best and brightest in the world including world leaders, government officials, civil society and honourable members of the bar, will be on hand to engage and strengthen our collective efforts in seeing continuous and sustainable economic and political development in Nigeria.
As put by the President of the Nigerian Bar Association, Mr. Olumide Apkata, “The 61st edition of the conference represents a novel platform for knowledge exchange on the continent as we bring together world leaders, political icons, judges, leading lawyers, thought leaders, policy makers, business icons, and civil society to not just discuss but produce an implementation plan to foster the adoption of policies, standards and practices leading to socio-political stability, economic growth, sustainable and infrastructural development for accelerated regional and economic integration”.

Also in the TCCP Chairman’s address, Mr. Omubo Victor Frank – Briggs shared that “This special conference is about telling our story through thought leadership, and it is on this basis that I welcome you and ask that you immerse yourself in the celebration of 61 years of the NBA Annual General Conferences, 61 years of Nigeria’s nationhood, and 61 years of independence of a good number of African countries. This becomes important in this age that #BlackLivesMatter, and it is on that score that I ask that you prioritize TAKING THE LEAD in becoming brilliance; in taking hold of the future of work; and contributing, through this conference, to shaping the work of the future. Work which will sound in bits and not atoms – that is: work that speaks in the currency of data and not fossil fuels. The aim is to heal all that tends to divide us, to bring light into the darkness that pervades us, and reclaim the rule of law that we seem to evade.”
