The Body Of Benchers and the organization of commotion – By Dr. Ugoji Egbujo
Nigeria has a way of making special occasions ordinary. Graduates of the Nigerian Law School were called to the bar a few days ago. The venue was the International Conference Center Abuja. Invited guests lined up under a bitter sun. At some point the queue was two kilometer long. The motor traffic around the center was utter chaos. The elderly and the young, parents and friends, languished in hopeless queue and questioned the point of attending. Disappointment was visible on all faces. There was no one to minister happiness.
