The Nigerian Bar Association, NBA, on Thursday withdrawn its invitation to Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai.
The NBA made this known in a tweet on Thursday via its Twitter handle @NigBarAssoc.

Some lawyers in a petition had faulted the NBA for inviting el-Rufai to speak at the 2020 Annual General Conference of the NBA.
They cited his alleged poor human rights record and his inability to stop the killings, particularly in southern Kaduna.
