A renowed lawyer and activitist, Femi Falana, has said that Governor Nasir El-Rufai of Kaduna State lacks the moral right to speak at the 60th Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) conference.
Falana said El-Rufai has a penchant of disobeying court orders right from when he was a Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).
He explained that El-Rufai’s action was inconsistent with the rules of NBA.
The Senior Advocate of Nigeria stated this in a letter to the NBA’s Technical Committee, conference planning committee.
Galena’s letter reads partly: “You will agree with us that Mallam El-Rufai’s penchant for disobeying court orders is inconsistent with the aims and objects of the Nigerian Bar Association which includes promotion of rule of law.”
El-Rufai was billed to be one of the speakers at the NBA Conference scheduled for August 26 – 29, 2020
