Members of the Nigeria Bar Association (NBA) today denied access to agents of the Directorate of State Security (DSS) who tried to gatecrash into their meeting.
Here is the recorded conversation between the NBA Chairman, Mr Adesina Ogunlana, and a lady who led the DSS to the venue of the emergency meeting meant to discuss matters arising on the vexed issue of Land Use Charge in Lagos:
Chairman : Good morning madam, you from the DSS?
DSS LADY : Yes sir , we understand you want to hold a meeting today on this LAND USE CHARGE MATTER.
CHAIRMAN: Whats wrong with that?
DSS LADY : Nothing sir , only we want to know whether the meeting will hold and what you want to say.
CHAIRMAN. So you want to attend the meeting?
DSS LADY: Yes sir , after all it’s not a secret meeting.
CHAIRMAN: But are you a lawyer? Are you a member of the Branch?
DSS LADY . Iam not but I will like to be a lawyer!
CHAIRMAN : Until then!
