The second day of the ongoing Nigerian Bar Association annual conference in Enugu was on Monday disrupted by protests demanding the release of a Labour Party lawmaker in the Enugu State House of Assembly, Bright Ngene.
Ngene, who represents Enugu South Urban Constituency, is currently serving a seven-year prison sentence handed down by a magistrate’s court in connection with a community dispute.
His supporters, however, insist the conviction was politically motivated.
Protesters, carrying placards with inscriptions such as “Release Bar. Bright Ngene Now, a Political Prisoner of Conscience” and “NBA, Please Save Our Democracy”, accused the state judiciary of stalling his appeal.
They claimed that at least two judges had recused themselves while the case remained unassigned at the state High Court.
Speaking to journalists, the protest leader, Benedict Kachukwu, described Ngene’s incarceration since July 2024 as unjust.
“Due process was not followed in his trial. We appeal to the NBA and senior lawyers at this conference to intervene and ensure justice is done,” he said.
Security operatives, however, barred the demonstrators from entering the International Conference Centre, venue of the NBA conference.
Despite this, they staged a peaceful protest around the premises before dispersing.
My programmer is trying to persuade me to move to .net from PHP.
I have always disliked the idea because of the costs. But he’s tryiong none the less.
I’ve been using Movable-type on a number of websites for about a year and am anxious about switching
to another platform. I have heard great things about blogengine.net.
Is there a way I can transfer all my wordpress posts into it?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Hello just wanted to give you a quick heads up. The words in your post seem
to be running off the screen in Safari. I’m not sure if this
is a format issue or something to do with internet browser compatibility but I thought
I’d post to let you know. The design and style look great though!
Hope you get the problem solved soon. Thanks
This is such a valuable article! 👏 I really like how you’ve managed to explain the topic in a clear and practical way—it feels authentic and easy to relate to. Reading it gave me some new perspectives that I can actually apply. I’m especially interested in content like this because at meinestadtkleinanzeigen.de we’re running a classifieds and directory platform in Germany that connects people with services, businesses, and opportunities across many categories. Insights like yours remind me how powerful it is when knowledge and connections come together. Thanks for sharing—looking forward to more of your work! 🚀
