The Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) in Lagos on Monday expressed displeasure at the popular act dubbed `charge and bail’ as practised by some lawyers.
The Chairmen of the five branches in Lagos spoke with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in reaction to reported cases of lawyers fighting over legal representation of defendants in court.
They also described the act as “infamous” conducts.
According to them, the Rules of Professional Conduct (RPC) is a collection of rules specially drafted for Nigerian legal practitioners to help check and guard against unethical standards capable of demeaning the profession.
Speaking with NAN, Chair of Lagos branch of the NBA, Yemi Akangbe, described the legal profession as noble, with lawyers as upholders and protectors of the law.
