President Bola Tinubu on Wednesday declared a nationwide security emergency, unveiling sweeping measures aimed at tackling escalating attacks across several states and strengthening Nigeria’s overstretched security apparatus.

In a statement, the President ordered an unprecedented recruitment drive across the armed forces and security agencies, authorising the Nigeria Police Force to immediately add 20,000 new officers, bringing total new intakes under his administration to 50,000.

With nine months left in the tenure of this administration, the President of the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA), Mazi Afam Osigwe, SAN, has taken a major step toward the Association’s 2026 national elections by appointing members of the Electoral Committee of the Nigerian Bar Association (ECNBA). The appointments received the formal approval of the NBA National Executive Council (NEC) during its quarterly meeting held in Benin City, Edo State on 20th November 2025.
