NBA Warns President Tinubu Over Definition Of ‘Illegal Orders’

The Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) on Tuesday cautioned Bola Tinubu, the president, that the decision of what “constitutes ‘illegal orders’ still remains a matter within the exclusive preserve of the courts of law” and not the executive branch. THE GUARDIAN reports.

The NBA clarified the matter in a letter issued by its president, Yakubu Maikyau, SAN, in response to a statement made by the President during his address on Democracy Day, “that the unnecessary illegal orders used to truncate or abridge democracy will no longer be tolerated.”Information Guide Nigeria

“It is important to note that the determination of what constitutes ‘illegal orders’ still remains a matter within the exclusive preserve of the courts of law.

“The conditions under which Judges and Justices work is pitiable and shameful for a country that has exported legal knowledge and service to other parts of the continent and across the world. A complete overhaul in the justice sector is necessary,” the letter reads.

“There is the urgent need to put in place policies that will help cushion the effect of this otherwise laudable decision before its positive impact will begin to be felt or noticed within our socio-economic space,” Maikyau stated.NYSC Portal
