Rivers Demands ₦300m Refund from NBA Over Conference Relocation
Rivers State Sole Administrator, Vice Admiral Ibok-Etteh Ibas (rtd), has demanded a refund of ₦300 million from the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) following the relocation of its 2025 Annual General Conference from Port Harcourt to Enugu.
The NBA had cited the state of emergency and collapse of democratic structures in Rivers as reasons for the move. In response, Ibas criticized the association for failing to return the funds paid for hosting rights, urging the NBA to uphold its claimed principles by issuing a prompt refund.
