Melezenawii:
The article is well written , but is misleading because of some errors or willfull ommissions. You need to update the article on :
1. Number of cases
2. Number of Recoveries
3. Number of Deaths
4. Number of Governors infected
5. Government of Lagos efforts on stimulus packages for the Poor
6. Buhari Government Social Investment Programs activated .
7. Free movement of foods and essential items and ability for those to open
8. COVID Loan by CBN
9. Directive of the President for Ministers to cater for the needs of the poorest of states affected
10. Needs of other states to take initiatives like Lagos

is it not more sensible to the plight of Nigerians in this restive period to pay money into the valid BVN account of each citizen to give succour both to the poor n average families out there.you forgot there are those on daily incomes in Nigeria, how do u expect them to survive the stay at home epidermic. Provide a more better palliative for the masses. This is common reasoning

Is that all you have to say?

OgbeniOja1:
Na to buy fuel in bulk stock up

let's not have stupid foolish survival methods.we need the govt to help the public and get their priorities rights.u people should pressure your government to give people income through their BVN. Get it

NaijaRoyalty:
Dear husbands, Stay home and enjoy your wives.

Everything is not money

Buhari has done well on this I must say .

that's wrong.what about singles who eke out a living on daily income. This lockdown should just end instantly

Carfreak966:
But why park into a compound and you know the rent or electricity bill will be heavy for you to pay. Personally I can’t rent a house I will not be able to raise the rent between 2-3 months.

He has the right to disconnect the water. It was as a result of she not paying the light was cut off.

consult a lawyer and go to court.don't be stupid by always thinking of self help. In sane climes, they follow the procedures of law

idealogical:
The constitution does.

The judiciary or any other arm of government can not overrule the Nigeran constitution because the constitution is the bedrock and safety valve in any democracy. The judiciary's job is to defend and interpret the constitution, not to throw out the constitution or amend the constitution based on their own reasonings.

You can not in one breath champion and defend democracy while in another breath blame the president for doing exactly what the constitution asked him to do.

Any act that the constitution sanctions can not be illicit, you are not making any sense.

you haven't made a relevant rejoinder here,my unassailable fortiori still remains that with conceding to the fact that the judiciary interprets laws.it is a flurry of expose to note that the powers of the judiciary is unlimited in affairs in our democratic corpus juris whether the proprietary or impropriety of the executive/presidency actions is unambiguous. Look at section 6 (6) of the 1999 constition. The court still has the inherent, innate powers to determine the validity or necessary steps a government can make even before the presidency can make that step in relation to sacrosanct issues on human rights. I place reliance on this proviso of s.6 (b) of the 1999 Constitution
6) The judicial powers vested in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this section-

(a) shall extend, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Constitution, to all inherent powers and sanctions of a court of law;

(b) shall extend to all matters between persons. or between government or authority and to any person in Nigeria, and to all actions and proceedings relating thereto, for the detennination of any question as to the civil rights and obligations of that person
Nigeria is a member states of the African union who adopted a grundnorm of African charter on human rights which is binding, vivid, incontrovertible and rooted like the rock of gilbatrar in Nigeria. You can like a military dictator oust the valid jurisdiction of the court compass to determine if your order is legal or illegal.that's ouster clauses which is not justifiable in a democratic setting.I say this with respect even to our laws I.e quarantine act of 1920 and public health safety act.it is hornbook law that where a law contradicts the en fons origo that is to say our constitution. That law shall be invalid to the extent of its contradiction

Israel and American don cast already for this Corona viruse matter

Assuming they remain in Nigeria their chances of getting the viruse is slim and even if they get it our fuckkking government will give them preferential treatment!

naptu2:
1) Does the president have the power to lock down the FCT, Lagos and Ogun states?

Yes he does. (Bear with me, I'm going to tell you the full story).

A friend of mine told me something around a month ago. He joked that these flu pandemics seem to appear every 100 years. There was a similar pandemic in 1720, 1820 and in 1920.

Now, I remember my mother telling me a bit about this and I did my own research. The 1920 pandemic also affected Lagos. There was a quarantine, but some people were negligent in their duty and some people aboard one of the infected ships were able to come ashore. This enabled the Spanish Flu to spread in Lagos and people were taken to the Infectious Diseases Hospital in Ikoyi (I can't remember for sure, but I think she said that the IDH was at the location that Creek Hospital [Military Hospital now occupies on Awolowo Road in Ikoyi).

The Bubonic Plague also affected Lagos later in the 1920s.

These diseases led to the enactment of the Quarantine Act in 1926 (it has been amended a few times).

The Quarantine Act gives the president the power to declare any place within Nigeria or outside Nigeria as an infected place and it gives him the power to take all measures necessary to ensure that dangerous infectious diseases do not spread from that place to any other place in Nigeria.

Here's a link to the Quarantine Act. http://lawsofnigeria.placng.org/laws/Q2.pdf




Some people ask if state governors have the power to lock down their states. The act gives them that power if the president has not yet acted




Furthermore, some people say that the president can not lock down these places because the constitution gives people the right to freedom of movement.


They say that the only way that the president can lock down these places is by declaring a state of emergency. That's not true. Read section 45 (1a) of the constitution:


Here's a link to the constitution: http://www.nigeria-law.org/ConstitutionOfTheFederalRepublicOfNigeria.htm

who declares which law is reasonable justifiable in our society if not the judiciary and our court of law and justice. So a law that is justiciable in a democratic society is not one which without tenets of democracy ,checks and balances now gives a whimsical power to the presidency to issue out a analogous illicit fiats to close down borders without first obtaining such orders from the court that their actions are legal and that the quarantine act is on the merits justifiable in a democratic society

cruxgemmata:
Not about the social distancing.

Believe me if an infected person is among all these distancing done here, people will be affected.
People will touch same thing he or she touched, (u cant escape that)

Stay at home and avoid social gathering, so easy to comprehend even the holy books say in situations like this, obey the laws of the land. Howz that so hard to understand.

where did the bible say that in situation like this ,u obey the law of the land

zainabicy:
I lowkey believe that many of this companies in Nigeria get away with a lot of sh*t because we Nigerians don't trust the speed and honesty of our legal suing processes.

I should have sued my bank, Nepa, DStv and even my car's AC repair man for illegal deductions and poor service.

I am a lawyer the legal system may not be speedy as wanted but it is highly rewarding especially after u get a judgment in your Favour against this foolish companies and parastatal

lefulefu:
did the bible mention all the types of animals that where on earth at the time? its only in africa that we believe jesus is white cos of the religious movies we have watched on the life of jesus but in actual fact jesus is not white but the average nigerian would be aurguing that jesus is a white man because of the movie Jesus of nazareth or mel gibson"s passion of christ .

have you even read the bible before

Buliwyf:
Ignorance. The bible is the least reliable of them all.

u are wrong, the Bible had been the origin and the first source to all knowledge about our world before science came to existence

ProWalker:
Lagos is tired of taking off the burden of 35 other states and the governors

Only 700,000 people out of 4.5m taxable adults pay taxes in Lagos state. 2% of the population carrying the burden of 20m people. You want roads, healthcare, housing, rail then again Lagos must create alternatives which includes shelter and employment for people who troop in daily

what about the levies agberos all over Lagos collect from drivers in almost all public buses in Lagos, is it accounted for in the reservoir of Lagos council

[quote author= post=86299372]Thanks for posting this!
Thanks for coming out to talk.
We believe something will be done before 48 hours ,
and for those that do not want to live just like some refused to leave SA when the movement came for them, we wish them the best.

For those of you that are ready to come back home to our darling country.
Prepare your bags and boxes guys.
Keep yourself safe and sound for few hours more.
This is a proactive government, to most extent.
God bless Nigeria.



So it was your Cownu and his rented bouncers that went to SOUTH AFRICA to evacuate Nigerians few months ago?!

Una wailers go just open mouth anyhow they talk rubbish sha.
Hatred for your country will not kill you guys one day, our prayers are with you.

Blasphemy against the word of God to compare a ordinary creation to Jesus who is the only Messiah and Saviour of a the world

pocohantas:
98.1251% of people that have commented and would comment, do not understand the news.

Neither do they know what is a Garnishee order absolute.

In simple terms- Garnishee order arises when a court instructs a third party (the bank) to pay a creditor a certain sum on behalf of the debtor. In this case, CBN is to pay a team of lawyers on behalf of FG (debtor).

GTB has a similar case with Innoson.

Failure to do so will attract consequences.

What I don't understand is why Emefiele would go to jail. What happened to entity concept?

Emefiele is different from CBN. It is just like Segun Agbaje going to jail for failure to pay Innoson a sum.

Abi, somebody epp me out.

u shouldn't be explaining legal terms to people who do not pay consultation fees nor have it as a field of expertise, this you do is very unethical

Justcome:
I will make this as short as possible

There is this tenant that we gave quit notice since 2018 because of inability to pay the house rent. Up till now he has not moved out, we handled the case legally and its still in court till now.

This is the 3rd year that the man and his family have stayed without paying 1 naira because of our poor judicial system, we are still hoping the court will eject them this year.

Now there is another tenant that is very close to the man's wife, she did not pay 2019 rent and she was given quit notice 6 months ago to leave before December 31st, up till now, nothing has happened, we think she wants us to open a legal case so that she can stay for some more years free of charge like her friend.

Please what can we do concerning the two tenant situations?

The house is situated in Lagos. Ayobo area to be specific

are you sure the lawyer knows what he is doing? Inbox me asap
