Eastern Bar Forum (EBF) Press Release


Eastern Bar Forum (EBF) Press Release

Due to the recent disturbing developments in Anambra State due consultations was initiated with necessary stakeholders and feedbacks received. The problems in Anambra State appears to have become exacerbated by some intrigues connected to the upcoming elections in the state. The security of our members is, of course, our most important consideration. As it is, the security situation in Anambra State has become dangerous and unpredictable and the safety of delegates and guests can no longer be reasonably guaranteed. As a result, the EBF meeting scheduled to hold in Anaocha on 8th/9th October, 2021 is postponed. New dates will be communicated as soon as modalities are put in place after the said elections, probably early next year.

Thank you.

Uba Anene.
Chairman, EBF Governing Council.
