Nigerian Bar Association President Oyinkansola Badejo-Okusanya has vowed to unite the Bar following complaints of regional polarization following the NBA presidential election. In an interview, Badejo-Okusanya revealed that she has already started working with elders in the Western Region to build a unified Bar, stating she wants to serve everyone, not just those who supported her.
Her administration's programs will focus on the 'Members First' theme, with a priority on improving lawyers' ability to earn, live, and practice better. Badejo-Okusanya also addressed reports about her recent meeting with the Inspector-General of Police, Olatunji Disu, regarding police officers wearing body cameras while on duty.
She clarified that her comments were not in response to Disu's position but emphasized that accountability can benefit both members of the public and police officers, as body cameras would encourage better behavior from police officers.
