The Nigerian Bar Association, NBA has unequivocally condemned the recent attack on Mubi and Yola towns in Adamawa State by insurgents.
Upon receiving information, the NBA leadership independently confirmed the sad incident.
According to the statement issued by the National Publicity secretary, Mr Olakunle Edun, the NBA President Paul Usoro, SAN put in a call to the Chairman of NBA Yola branch, Mr Aji Kamale, to express his condolences and prayers on behalf of NBA members—over the loss of lives and destruction of properties by the terrorists—particularly the destructive effects of such attacks on colleagues practising in Yola and Mubi.
“The NBA President reiterates his call for the Federal Government of Nigeria to consider the protection of lives and properties of citizens and residents as it’s primary responsibility.
“He expressed grave concerns about the increasing spate of insecurity in many parts of Nigeria and calls for a more proactive and integrated action by the security agencies.
“The NBA President, while commending the Nigerian military for it’s onslaught against terrorist activities in the North East, he also urged the Nigerian military and security agencies to be more proactive instead of being reactionary, and thereby causing avoidable loss of lives and properties.” The statement said.
