MANTRA Dailies-- lnt'l Women's Day: Together, we can build a Gender Equal NBA--JOYCE ODUAH, FICMC.
Int’l Women’s Day: Together, We Can Build A Gender Equal NBA– Joyce Oduah, FICMC
Today, I join other women globally, especially members of our noble profession across our great country, as we celebrate the International Women’s Day today, the 8th Day of March, 2020.
This year’s celebration with the theme , “I am Generation Equality: Realizing Women’s Rights”, is striking as it is aimed at bringing together ”people of every gender, age, ethnicity, race, religion and country, to drive actions that will create the gender-equal world we all deserve.”
It is very apt at a time like this, when the world has witnessed a high rise in cases of violence against women, descrimination at places of work, political and religious offices based on gender and sexual and reproductive health abuses.
Our noble association, the Nigerian Bar Association, NBA can be a shining light in galvanizing members to stop the acts of violence against women, work place descrimination, sexual abuse targeted at women and promote the rights of women in our society and association. Together, we can also build a gender equal NBA.
While celebrating the International Women’s Day, I urge us to retain the ideals behind the adoption of this day, twenty five years ago in Beijing, China today and always.
Happy Women’s Day!

THE MANTRA Dailies
I can attest to the validity of the fact that during the tenure of Chief Okey Wali, SAN and before me, Joyce introduced the coding of NBA Branches as it stands today when she was the NBA treasurer.
The President could not implement any major project during his tenure without consulting Joyce for her input. It’s important we know this fact and more that will flow in later.
She is indeed a major material for the office of the General Secretary because her innovations when introduced will be seriously appreciated by all. We worked together for two years and I know her worth.
I stand with Joyce.
Good evening all.
My name is U. F. O Nnaemeka, Esq. and I’m of Awka Branch
