The Nigerian Bar Association Section on Public Interest and Development Law(NBA-SPIDE) has announced that its 2023 conference will hold from 20th-23rd June, 2023, in Ikeja, Lagos State.
The Theme
The chosen theme of the Conference;” POST-ELECTION NIGERIA: THE JUDICIARY IN THE EYE OF THE STORM” is deliberate in the light of the present mood of our dear country, post National elections. As public interest advocates, ours is to constantly remind the judiciary of the daunting task ahead, need to do substantial justice and to help set the tone as watchdogs of justice delivery
“In order to encourage wider participation of lawyers of public interest affiliation and for a more enhanced public interest advocacy in Nigeria,” the organisers said, “we are happy to announce a hugely discounted Conference fees for this year’s Conference. This year’s conference registration fees represents a significant reduction (across all categories) from last year’s conference fees.”
