Notice To All NBA Branch Chairmen

The Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) Administration of
Criminal Justice Conference (#NBA2017ACJAC) will hold on the 9th of
November, 2017 in the FCT – Abuja, Nigeria.

As you are aware, the ACJA Project with sole support from the
John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation seeks to improve the
state-level adoption rates of the Administration of Criminal
Justice Act 2015 (ACJA), a Federal Legislation currently
domesticated in less than 10 of the 36 states of the Federation and
the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) of Nigeria, and only applicable
to states that opt to domesticate same as part of their compendium
of laws. The ACJA Project which seeks to ensure that the
innovations introduced in the ACJA are uniformly and independently
adopted by all states of the Federation, shall be executed across
the 6 geo-political zones of Nigeria, viz, the North-Central,
North-West, North-East, South-South, South-East and SouthWest.

This high-level consultative forum between key Stakeholders and
Representatives of Agencies and organs of Governments, would
essentially be a dialogue on the domestication and implementation
of the ACJA, achieving its goals and ensuring that relevant
Agencies and personnel carry out their roles/obligations as
required under the Act.

The #NBA2017ACJAC Planning Committee having already sent out
requisite notices, hereby advises the respective Branch Chairmen
that are yet to confirm attendance to kindly do so or to confirm
the details of their representatives, where they elect to send one
on or before Friday 3rd November, 2017; as attendance at the
#NBA2017ACJAC is strictly by invitation. The receipt of this
information is urgent and important to enable the #NBA2017ACJAC
Planning Committee make adequate preparations as well as print the
requisite name tags.

We look forward to welcoming all the participants at the
Conference.

Welcome to #ABraveNewBar.
