 And a group of Niger Delta legal practitioners from Nimbusay, Bialsa State, have underscored the need to promote excellence among lawyers through capacity-building, networking, public interests, protection and meaningful participation in the value chain of the profession. This includes professional transactional advisory and dispute resolution services for government, communities, private and public corporations, among others. Lawyers of the Nimbusay Lawyers Forum said this in Port Hackett, the river state capital, during a one-day special session to enlighten the group on nutrients in law practice. The Yamadabo of Spieftan in Tuanbrass, Bialsa State, David Serena Dokubo, said the time is now for legal practitioners to focus on the way forward for the profession. Chairman of the Nimbusay Lawyers Forum, Ayebesen Berdugo, said the body is an association of lawyers from member ethnic nationality with about 200 members. For there to be development, we must have peace. Do we have peace today in our homeland? No, we don't. Let us go back. And on that issue, the lawyer plays a powerful role. Part of our mandate is to promote professionalism and practice among the Nimbusay Lawyers Forum. In this era of having changes, lawyers are constantly in the care of the people, with modern trends and practical meaning, and adapt to cope with the challenges thrown up by these changes. Speaker of the event George Atomi advised lawyers to carve a niche for themselves. Chief Judge of Bialsa State, Justice Kate Abirile, commented that the honour and respect the legal practitioners used to enjoy is fast disappearing. It rests on a lot of these lawyers to change the narrative because it is peace that guarantees businesses. Businesses, investment funds are attracted to where there is peace and harmony. So if you, who is a custodian of law and the profession, you are not in the forefront of guaranteeing the rule of law, then you are missing the point. We just want excellence in this profession. It has come to the point now where no lawyers believe to doubt a bit of the law of the lawyers that are very important to them. And if we follow and regard and respect this very global profession, but we're free now, when I was, when I became a lawyer, it seemed to be a routine. The forum said it is commuter to seven as a practical advocate for unity and brotherhood. And don't forget to hit the notification button so you get notified about fresh news updates.
