NOTIFICATION OF TEST EMAIL AND SMS MESSAGES FOR NBA ELECTIONS

TEST EMAIL AND SMS MESSAGES FOR NBA ELECTIONS

Distinguished Colleagues,

The Electoral Committee of the Nigerian Bar Association (ECNBA) has published on its website ECNBA Notice 10, disclosing that it shall send a test and SMS message to the individual contact information on the Voters Register, which was earlier published on March 28, 2024. This exercise ensures that a verified voter can successfully receive his/her voting credentials.

To this end, the ECNBA advises, “To ensure you can receive your SMS, please ensure Do-Not-Disturb (DND) is turned off for your phone number. Check the DND Quick Guide on go.ecnba.org to learn how to turn off DND.” You are also encouraged to check your Promotion, Social, Spam, or Junk folders if you do not receive the test email in your primary inbox.

The ECNBA has also indicated that at the end of its voter verification exercise, only 1181 of the 9123 entries requesting correction of their details on the voter’s list were successfully filtered, validated, and certified by the ECNBA for correction.

The ECNBA Notice 10 has further details for your guidance, and you are urged to read it.

Thank you,

Akorede Habeeb Lawal
National Publicity Secretary

BREAKING: NBA REVIVES STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIP WITH UNICEF, SECURES ₦120 MILLION JUSTICE FOR CHILDREN PROJECT The Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) has secured a major institutional partnership with the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) for the implementation of a nationwide Justice for Children and Young People programme valued at ₦120 million, in a landmark achievement that underscores the Association’s renewed institutional credibility and growing influence under the leadership of NBA President, Mazi Afam Osigwe, SAN. The institutional contract, which runs from 9 July 2026 to 30 March 2027, marks the return of a significant international development partnership with the NBA after years of limited donor-funded institutional engagement. The partnership represents a defining milestone for the current administration, reflecting its success in rebuilding the confidence of international development partners in the NBA. Following the conclusion of the Association’s long-standing support from the MacArthur Foundation, many believed that restoring large-scale institutional collaborations would be a significant challenge. The new partnership with UNICEF signals a strong vote of confidence in the NBA’s capacity to deliver impactful national programmes and reinforces the Association’s position as a trusted stakeholder in justice sector reform. Under the agreement, the NBA will spearhead a comprehensive national programme aimed at strengthening access to justice for children and young people through policy engagement, nationwide capacity building for lawyers, expansion of pro bono legal representation, quality assurance and mentoring, community awareness campaigns, and initiatives that amplify children’s participation in justice processes. The programme also provides for the establishment of structured legal aid mechanisms, advocacy for child-friendly justice reforms, diversion programmes, monitoring and evaluation systems, and the training and certification of more than 7,000 lawyers across the country. Expected outcomes of the initiative include improved access to timely legal representation for children and young persons, increased adoption of diversion and non-custodial measures, reduced detention of children, stronger legal aid systems nationwide, and the development of sustainable policy frameworks that promote child rights and child-sensitive justice administration in Nigeria. Beyond its financial value, the partnership represents a significant institutional milestone for the NBA. It reflects an administration committed not only to defending the rule of law but also to building strategic alliances that deliver measurable social impact. By restoring the confidence of international development partners and attracting substantial programme funding, the NBA has reaffirmed its position as a leading voice for justice, human rights, and sustainable legal reform in Nigeria.If you’d like, I can also make it read like a premium front-page news report suitable for publication on LegalLinkz or a national newspaper.
