Nairaland GeneralCourt Bars FRSC From Arresting Vehicles With Faded Number Plate by akhis(op): 11:20pm On Jan 17, 2025
A Federal High Court, in Lagos on Friday, restrained the Federal Road Safety Corps from arresting vehicles with faded number plates.

The court also ordered the restriction of the FRSC from imposing any fine or punishment on any driver for driving with a faded vehicle number plate.

Justice Aluko made the orders while delivering judgment in a suit marked FHC/L/CS/253/2024, filed by Chinwike Chamberlain Ezebube against FRSC.

The applicant, Ezebube, in an Originating Summons dated January 12, 2024 and filed on February 13, 2024, by his lawyer, U.G.Nwokedi, had asked the court to determine the following: “Whether the defendant, pursuant to Section 5 (g) and Section 10 (3)(f) of the Federal Road Safety Commission Act 2007 being the sole designer and producer of Vehicle Number Plates in Nigeria, is not absolutely responsible for the quality and durability of the vehicle number plates as are produced by it?


“Whether the defendant, pursuant to Section 5(g) and Section 10(3)(f) of the Federal Road Safety Commission Act, 2007, being the sole designer and producer of Vehicle Number Plates in Nigeria, and responsible for the quality and durability of the vehicle plate numbers as are produced by it not liable for any defect or poor quality and durability.

“Whether the defendant can, pursuant to Section 5(g) and Section 10(3)(f) of the Federal Road Safety Commission Act, 2007 vehicle number plates? Being the sole designer and Producer of Vehicle Number Plates in Nigeria, and absolutely responsible for the quality and durability of the vehicle plate numbers as are produced by it, penalise or threaten to penalise the plaintiff and or other Nigerians for the depreciating quality, durability, fading or peeling off of the colours and characters of the Vehicle Number Plates designed and produced by the defendant?

“Whether the defendant can make it an offence and impose a penalty against the plaintiff and or other Nigerians for driving a vehicle with faded vehicle number plates due to poor quality production as designed and produced by the defendant? Whether the defendant is not obligated to replace at no cost to the plaintiff and or other Nigerians, the vehicle number plates when same is faded due to poor quality manufacturing by the defendant?”


The plaintiff said should the above questions be determined in his favour, urged the court to make the following orders, “An order of the honourable court restricting the Federal Road Safety Commission, from declaring it an offence for the plaintiff to drive with a faded vehicle number plate. An order of the Honourable Court restricting the Federal Road Safety Commission, from imposing any fine or punishment on the plaintiff for driving with a faded vehicle number plate.
“An order of the honourable court mandating the Federal Road Safety Commission, to replace at no extra cost, Vehicle Licence Number Plate LSD905EQ or any faded vehicle plate numbers of the plaintiff’s vehicle or vehicles upon the payment of the initial vehicle plate number issuance cost.

“And for such other declaration(s), and/or order(s) or modifications of any or all of the foregoing reliefs already claimed hereof as the Court may deem fit to exercise its Inherent Jurisdiction to grant and/or make in the circumstances of this case.

However, FRSC through its lawyer, B. O. Nnamani, filed a counter affidavit, urging the court to dismiss the plaintiff’s suit with punitive cost.

In his judgment, Justice Aluko held, “While the defendant cannot criminalize the use of faded vehicle number plates, the plaintiff has a duty to approach the defendant for a replacement of his faded vehicle number plate upon payment of the
requisite fees for that purpose.

“By way of conclusion, I hold the view that the defendant cannot criminalize the use of a faded vehicle number Plate and has no power to impose a fine on the plaintiff for using a faded vehicle number plate or impound the plaintiff’s vehicle on such grounds without the order of a court of competent jurisdiction.

“Having examined the affidavit evidence before the court and determined the above questions, judgment is entered as follows: “An order of the Honourable Court restricting the Federal Road Safety Commission, from declaring it an offence to drive with a faded vehicle number plate is granted.


“An order of the honourable court restricting the Federal Road Safety Commission, from imposing any fine or punishment on the plaintiff for driving with a faded vehicle number plate is granted. An order directing the plaintiff to approach the defendant for the replacement of his faded vehicle number plate LSD905EQ and that the defendant shall replace the same upon payment of the reasonable and requisite fee is granted.”

Nairaland GeneralCourt Bars VIO From Impounding Vehicles by akhis(op): 6:43am On Oct 04, 2024
Justice Evelyn Maha of the Federal High Court in Abuja has issued an order restraining the Directorate of the Road Traffic Services, commonly known as the Vehicle Inspection Office, from stopping, impounding, or confiscating vehicles on the road.

The court also barred the Road Traffic Services from imposing fines on motorists.

The judgment, delivered on October 2 by Justice Maha, stemmed from a fundamental rights enforcement suit filed by human rights activist and public interest attorney, Abubakar Marshal.

Justice Maha, in the judgment, agreed with the applicant’s contentions that there is no legal basis for the VIO and its officials to stop, impound, or confiscate vehicles or to levy fines against motorists.


The applicant, in a suit marked FHC/ABJ/CS/1695/2023, sued the Directorate of Road Traffic Services, the Director, Directorate of Road Traffic Services, Mr. Leo, the Area Commander, Directorate of Road Traffic Services (as of December 12, 2023), Onoja Solomon, the Team Leader, Directorate of Road Traffic Services, Jabi Area Command, and the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory as the 1st to 5th respondents, respectively.

In his originating motion, Marshal sought, among others, a declaration that the “1st to 4th respondents under the control of the 5th respondent are not empowered by any law or statute to stop, impound, or confiscate the vehicles of motorists or impose fines on motorists, and that doing so is wrongful, oppressive, and unlawful, as it violates the fundamental human rights of such motorists to fair hearing, freedom of movement, and presumption of innocence, and is therefore unlawful by virtue of Sections 6(6)(B), 35(1), 35(cool, and 41 and 42 of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999 (as amended), as well as Articles 2(7)(b), 12, and 14 of the African Charter on Human and Peoples’ Rights.”

The court, in its judgment, issued a restraining order against the respondents, preventing them and their agents from impounding or confiscating vehicles or imposing fines, labeling such actions as wrongful, oppressive, and unlawful.


Justice Maha further granted a perpetual injunction to protect the rights of Nigerians, ensuring their freedom of movement, presumption of innocence, and right to own property without lawful justification.

The court, in its judgment, held that “The 1st (Directorate of Road Traffic Services) to 4th Respondents under the control of the 5th Respondent (Minister of the Federal Capital Territory) are not empowered by any law or statute to stop, impound, or confiscate the vehicles of motorists and/or impose fines on motorists.”

The court also issued “an order restraining the 1st to 4th respondents, either through their agents, servants, or assigns, from impounding or confiscating the vehicles of motorists and/or imposing fines on any motorist, as doing so is wrongful, oppressive, and unlawful.”

The court further issued “an order of perpetual injunction restraining the respondents, whether by themselves, agents, privies, allies, or anybody acting on behalf of the 1st respondent, from further violating the rights of Nigerians to freedom of movement, presumption of innocence, and the right to own property without lawful

There is dignity in whatever you choose to find dignity. Cleaner job is cool.and if you know yourself, it's a way to get out of poverty. First let to learn trust and let people trust you. Take the cleaning serious and start cleaning for your ogas even if it's free for the beginning in their homes. Get referrals. Look at it, when you get home cleaning and have six customers, you are sure of getting more money in a month and less time spent on the job. But customers can come only by referral and referral comes when they trust you. You need your present job to gather the experience and connection.

#Poverty will drastically reduce if the following are done.

1. Change our mindset
2. Increase Minimum Wage.
3.Cut down public officers' salaries and allowances.
4. Gain 21st Century skills.
5. Provision of well paying jobs
6. Smart solutions for electricity and Water problem
7. Stop being greedy, selfish and self-centered.
8. Minding one's business

What other ways can we reduce poverty for ourselves and others? Any suggestions?
These are aolutioms to the micro problem but the problem is macro in nature so it needs macro solution. Sorry your outlines are not solutions but outcome of solutions

PoliticsGroup, Obiano Trade Words Over N1.3bn Xmas Decoration by akhis(op): 10:52pm On Dec 16, 2019
A rights group, The Human Rights, Liberty Access and Peace Defenders Foundation, on Monday chided the Anambra State governor, Willie Obiano, for allegedly spending N1.35bn on beautification of major cities in the state for the Yuletide.

In a statement, the leader of the group, Uzor Dede, accused governors of the South-East geopolitical zone of profligacy, calling on the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission to beam its searchlight on them.

It lamented what it called “the abysmal performance” of the governors, stressing that their states were facing huge infrastructural decay.


The nongovernmental HURIDE queried the rationale behind spending N1.35bn for Christmas decorations, whereas only N181m was allocated to the rehabilitation of bad roads in the 2019 budget.

It said the action showed “the insensitivity and callousness of the government,” wondering what benefits the Christmas and New Year decorations are to the economy and welfare of the citizens.

The Anambra State Government has denied the claim.

Speaking about the decoration, HURIDE said, “The sane thing to do was to channel the entire money to rehabilitation of damaged roads in various parts of the state, particularly in Onitsha, the commercial nerve centre of the state where virtually all the roads are in deplorable conditions.


“It’s pathetic because, throughout the year, the Anambra people have been crying for roads rehabilitation, but the government allocated a paltry sum of N181m to it.

“No wonder all the roads in Onitsha still remain unattended, in spite of promises by the governor and his aides to rehabilitate them before Christmas.

“We are, therefore, calling on the EFCC to beam their searchlight on the finances of South-East and South-South states, to restrain the excesses of the governors in using their funds for frivolous things such as Christmas decorations, when roads, education and health sector are suffering,” Uzor stated.


Reacting, the Anambra State Commissioner for Information and Public Enlightenment, C-Don Adinuba, described the allegation as “unfounded.”

Christianity EtcRe: Parable Of The Rich Man And Lazarus: What Was The Sin Of The Rich Man? by akhis: 10:29am On Jan 07, 2018
Emmanystone:
Good sermon, thank you very much. BUT, your sermon seem to dwell on monetary wealth only.

Wealth is not necessarily the cash one has or poverty the lack of it. They are very wealthy people who are not as rich monetarily and they are very wealth men who do not have cash.

In the Kingdom of God, things are not the way they are in the secular world.

If you ask me, i'd say, the Rich man didn't end up in hell or Hades because he didn't feed Lazarus, Yes, he should have, but that was not his only fault. What was his motive for not doing it? Motive is what YHWH will primarily use to judge us. Why did you do it?

I'd say, he didn't do it because of his PRIDE OR HAUGHTINESS.

When you consider yourself better than the next person, then you have a problem with YHWH. If it were just a matter of giving, am sure if a man or woman of his status showed up in his house while at table, he'll insist that the person joins him. But, Pride was his undoing.

The Issue is Pride. His condescending attitude did not allow him consider that Lazarus was human just as he was.

And, Listen, when you stand preaching the Gospel but take a position to condemn another preacher, you invalidate your position. because, you are not called into that ministry by the master. Anyone who stands on others to be seen, will eventually fall.

If you take time to listen to the so called Prosperity preachers, you'd understand that, they try to go beyond 'the life of Jesus' which was offered as a propitiation for us, to the PRINCIPLES OF JESUS which he taught us what to do and how to do it to occupy this earth until his return.

If you decides to end at 'the Life of Jesus' without applying 'the Principles of Jesus', then be okay with that, instead of criticizing those who goes further.

The Rich man didn't go to hell because he was Rich and Lazarus didn't end up in the Bossom of Abraham because he was poor. All of them had attitudes which propelled their actions while alive, and that determined where they both ended.

As much as Jesus said 'The Poor shall not cease in our midst', we as Christians are also enjoined to work with our own hands. The Bible says 'A lazy man should not be given food. He that does no work, shd not eat.

Why was Lazarus poor? Was he sick hence, could not work with his hands or just lazy? I believe in Lazarus's case he was sick, so can be excused. But if not, he had no right to go to the rich man's house to beg.

Bottomline, poverty is not a mark of Holiness, for poverty is a spirit and it is evil. Jesus said, 'Let the poor say i am rich'. Why is that?

Again, Riches or wealth is not a mark of Sin. Anyone who workd hard will be wealthy. A believer or an unbeliever. Sowing and reaping happens to both.

There's no father of faith who was poor and a begger. Is it Abraham, or Jacob? ot Joseph, or who?

Stop preaching a wrong gospel pls.

If we work hard, especially if you are rightly planted and in a good soil, doing what pleases God, He'll prosper you and you'd leave substance for your offspring.

Poverty is sin.

Shalom.
Nice write up. Very well detailed but little contradictions. Poverty is not sin. As said there will always be some poor among us its left for us to work and pray not to be poor. Work alone may not make you reach, hence pray as you work. For He gives them both same time and chance, meaning but the poor and the rich have same life and opportunity while some will have it some may not
