Chairman of the Section, Prof. Paul Ananaba , stated this during an advocacy visit to the Oyo State governor, Seyi Makinde at the Government House, Agodi, Ibadan.
Ananaba commended the government for displaying public interest by relocating displaced traders instead of abandoning them.He noted the developmental strides of the administration, adding that the fact that a majority of the cabinet members are lawyers must have contributed positively to the governor’s success.
“We did not come in through any godfather. We did not come in because we had federal might. We did not even have local might when we were about to get elected. So, we can only run a government that is sensitive to the yearnings of our people. If we are hosting a conference of Nigeria Bar Association Section on Public Interest and Development Law, we think this is an appropriate place for that to happen.
