EDITOR’S SPARK

Hi friends,
For the umpteenth time, our cover story dwells on the NBA Ikeja branch. There is a reason for this continuous focus on that bar – it is the most important of all the bars in Lagos State and still remains under the threat of the malevolent dynamics of self-destruct.

Last week Monday (June 2) the Tiger Bar at her Annual General Meeting moved so dangerously close to the chasm of disintegration but rescued itself from hurtling down to certain doom, almost at the last moment.
Our cover story is a full account of what actually transpired at the AGM and showing clearly why a new Executives Committee has not yet emerged to replace the Niyi Idowu administration whose tenure under the Ikeja bar branch’s bye-laws expired on June 2 2008.

In our Bar & Bench News pages we publish the papers of Mr. Supo Sashore S.A.N, the Honourable Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice Lagos State, titled “New Roles and Responsibility for Agencies Involved in Criminal Justice – Administration, delivered at the MUSON Centre, Onikan Lagos on Tuesday 3rd June 2008 at an Interactive Workshop On Administration of Criminal Justice Law

All your Sweet Regulars save Diary and Book Excerpts are in the house. You are obviously in good company, dear readers.
Well, until when next the parliament opens, do not take it easy.
Do not take your music to the grave. Give life your best shots. The Heavens Will Not Fall!
