Nigerian Law School shifts venue of call to bar due to Bomb scare !!

For the First time I n recent history , The call to bar ceremony will not be taking place at the Nigerian Law School headquarters in Bwari due to Bomb threats by Boko Haram.

This year call to Bar programme has been shifted to the International Conference Centre (ICC). The Call to Bar ceremony will take place on October 5 2011 at the International Conference Centre , Abuja FCT.

Mr Chinedu Ukekwe , the head of Information, Nigerian Law School , confirmed that the venue of the Call to bar ceremony had been shifted from the school to ICC in an Interview on Monday.

“ The change in venue was initiated by the school management to ensure the safety of lives as there are many porous gardens within the premises of the school and such gardens can deter security, the call to bar ceremony has always been in Bwari but the issue of insecurity in Nigeria has changed the Location. The Head of Information further stated that the level of Insecurity in the country had been alarming.

It appears the school had gotten an anonymous call that there was going to be an attack on the school during the ceremony, however the DPO of Bwari police station was not available to comment on the issue.
