WALE ADEAGBO

Thank you @TheNationNews thenationonlineng.net/adeagbo-secure…

Behind me, they withdrew the FREP Suit, apologized to the Governor and threw me under the bus. When he got out, journalist organized an event to support Dapo Abiodun’s second term bid. The journalist said horrible things about my person, even to the media.

Form 48 for an Order that has automatically elapsed as provided by the Rules of Court? The decision of the court in Fagbola v Titilayo Plastic is still trite.

Senior Advocate of Nigeria: A Title for Excellence in Advocacy, Not Division The recurring controversy over whether the prestigious rank of Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN) should be conferred on lawyers in academia is, in my view, misplaced. The rank was conceived to honor excellence in advocacy, but advocacy itself is not confined to the courtroom. It is also found in the intellectual rigor of scholarship, in shaping jurisprudence, and in mentoring the next generation of lawyers. To insist that academics should be excluded from the rank is to misunderstand the breadth of advocacy. Many Nigerian lawyers have excelled both as academics and as advocates. Professors Kasumu, I.O. Smith, Amokaye, and the doyen of Maritime Law and Practice, Prof. Wale Olawoyin, are shining examples of scholars who also wore the toga of excellent advocates. They earned the Silk not by accident, but by demonstrating distinction in both spheres. The late Professor Ben Nwabueze, whose constitutional scholarship continues to guide courts and policymakers, is another towering figure who proved that intellectual advocacy is as vital as courtroom advocacy. The current Director-General of the Nigerian Law School, like her predecessors, is a fine academic who has also been conferred with the title. These examples show that the divide between academics and practitioners is artificial. The profession thrives when theory and practice reinforce each other, and the SAN rank should reflect that synergy. It is worth recalling that many years ago, the late Pa Gomez campaigned vigorously for the abolition of the SAN title. His argument was that it conferred undue advantage on some lawyers, and indeed, many supported him. The perception that politicians sponsored mediocre candidates for the title also fueled opposition. These criticisms are not without merit, but they should not detract from the original purpose of the rank: to honor excellence. The SAN rank is a privilege conferred at the discretion of the Legal Practitioners’ Privileges Committee of the Body of Benchers. That discretion must be exercised with integrity and fairness. The title should be strictly reserved for lawyers who have demonstrated excellence in advocacy whether in practice or in academia. To exclude academics would be to deny the profession the richness of intellectual advocacy, which often shapes the very arguments advanced in courtrooms. In conclusion, the controversy is unnecessary. The SAN rank should remain a symbol of distinction, conferred on lawyers who embody the highest standards of advocacy, whether they stand before the Bench or shape the law through scholarship. What matters is excellence, not the arena in which it is displayed.

@EmirSirdam How exactly did you and your Igbo brothers and sisters support her politically or in any meaningful way after Ojukwu’s death, before she suddenly got appointed as a minister by PBAT?

Thank you egbon segun sowumi for educating this young man and Nigerians >>>>>>🔥🔥👇

I’m going to police station now… 😩😆😩🤣

The suit filed by the alumnus against his former teacher is typical of American people. I have read about 5 similar cases from that jurisdiction. They can wake anytime and decide that the bullshit they got in 1658 deserves to be interrogated in court. Nothing is too small for them to challenge in court. They challenge the norms. That disposition has largely shaped the country through judicial pronouncement. If not for anything, I am particularly interested in what the judicial attitude would be to corporal punishments in our schools, quantum, and when it will be deemed excessive and degrading. I hope that the decision won't just scratch the surface. The Applicant has cleverly made the case about the gravity and manner of the punishment, arguing that it was debasing and excessive. The Respondent, clearly on the guidance of his lawyer, has argued that the punishment was moderate, typical, and expected in such settings. If he wins, many Nigerian schools will have to set up legal departments, because it is gonna rain cases.
