So why is English still compulsory for university admission if Maths is not in some courses? Something is definitely wrong with JAMB.

I couldn't care less about Mamman or his sentencing it's true because we all know the elites evade justice in this country, but isn't it funny how Malami's case was quickly handled whereas that of Emefiele and Bello are being dragged for months. Let the govt keep deceiving.

Many young lawyers are sleeping on the law firm of FRA Williams. It is a great place to work. But I guess everyone wants "top tier" experience.

@_fefas If gifts from a party to a judge are proven during an active trial, the issue goes beyond ethics , it strikes at the heart of fair hearing and judicial integrity. The credibility of the judgment immediately comes under serious scrutiny.

A lawyer discovers after judgment that the judge privately accepted gifts from the opposing party during trial. Question: Should the entire judgment automatically be set aside?

E don tey wey I do prove of practice. So here you go. 😝

Court: "Mr. Akano, please ask your questions in ways that the witness will understand, he is not a lawyer." Me: "Your Worship, I have been a lawyer for awhile now and I barely know how laymen speak again." The whole court erupts with laughter 😂😂😂

@Pereowei_ Lol why though ??

I don’t trust lawyers that introduce themselves as ‘Barrister xyz….’

NBA NEC OBJECTS TO MANDATORY ROBING OF CIVILIAN LAWYERS BEFORE COURTS MARTIAL The National Executive Council (NEC) of the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA), at its meeting held on Thursday, 7 May 2026 in Awka, Anambra State, unanimously objected to the requirement that civilian legal practitioners appearing before Courts Martial must appear robed. The Council considered the letter dated 27 April 2026 addressed by the NBA President @afamosigwe to the Chief of Army Staff concerning the directive contained in a recent Convening Order establishing a Court Martial to try officers and men accused of plotting a coup against the Federal Government. NEC noted the position that the requirement compelling civilian lawyers appearing before Courts Martial to wear robes lacks legal foundation under existing Nigerian law and constitutes an unwarranted extension of the Rules of Professional Conduct for Legal Practitioners. The Council observed that Rule 79 of the Rules of Procedure (Army) 1972 merely addresses the categories of persons qualified to appear before a Court Martial and is silent on the mode of appearance or dress code of counsel appearing before such tribunals. NEC further noted that the regulation of the professional conduct and appearance of legal practitioners in Nigeria falls exclusively within the purview of the General Council of the Bar pursuant to the Legal Practitioners Act and the Rules of Professional Conduct for Legal Practitioners. The Council emphasized that Rule 45 of the Rules of Professional Conduct specifically prescribes the courts before which legal practitioners are required to appear robed, namely the High Courts, the Court of Appeal, and the Supreme Court, and that the deliberate mention of these courts necessarily excludes other tribunals and bodies not expressly listed. NEC therefore agreed that there is no legal basis for extending mandatory robing requirements to appearances before Courts Martial, particularly when legal practitioners do not appear robed before several constitutionally recognised tribunals and quasi-judicial bodies. The Council reaffirmed the position that while Courts Martial remain recognised courts established under the Armed Forces Act, such recognition does not automatically import the procedural and ceremonial requirements applicable to superior courts of record under the Constitution where the governing rules of professional conduct provide otherwise. In adopting the position, NEC called on the Nigerian Army to immediately review and withdraw the aspect of the Convening Order mandating civilian lawyers appearing before Courts Martial to be robed.

If a Court starts reading a ruling/and its findings are aligning with your arguments and submissions, be sure you have lost the case. Just wait for ‘However’ 😭

When you want to engage a lawyer, certain details and information should be disclosed, but information like: "My wife is also a lawyer", "My baby sister studied law", "I have a lawyer, I just thought to try another lawyer", "My lawyer friend insisted on taking this brief, but I know he won't let me pay", and similar comments are both unsolicited and irrelevant. They serve no utilitarian value, and you should stop playing that card for "that" purpose.
