omiobo: It is a pity that it has to end after 7 months. Marriage is sweet for two "forgivers". There will always be irreconcilable differences in as much as the two parties involved find it very difficult to forgive each other. In every relationship,at a time one party must be a sheep.
it is not flesh and blood that revealed this to you, but my father in heaven.

The last picture is a picture of me conducting my choral group, The Abuja Choral Ensemble. We sang "I have a dream" and "nkosi sikeleli Africa." The crowd appreciation was very very encouraging. The south african ambassador has invited us to perform this week at their embassy during their own mandela tribute night. A few other offers came in. Pls feel free to contact us for all your top quality choral entertainment and performance, including, but not limited to Christmas concerts. Contact us via www.abujachoralensemble.com or mail us at abjensemble@gmail.com. Thanks OP for the pictures.
Family › Re: Do Prenuptial Agreements Work In Nigeria? by dom(m): 7:51am On Nov 21, 2013
Guess, prima facie, it is enforceable as an agreement between parties. But i've been on the lower bench for over 4 years now and superintended over tens of matrimonial proceedings and i'm yet to come across a pre-nup in the filed annexures to a petition. Even during my years at the high court as a Legal Assistant to a Judge, I never came across it too. Would luv to, really.

I've been thoroughly and sadly amused and entertained by the various encounters. Well, at the university of Ibadan where I resided in Tedder hall in the mid 90s and early 2000s I had no such experience. Cos I if I did I for piss for my pant before Operation Gbale people would come around.

I understand his situation perfectly. Last year my choral group was invited to participate at the World Choir Games in Cincinnati, Ohio. i cracked my head endlessly about how to deal with the issue of desertion, cos I had crazy guys and babes wey their eyes de tear and wey for even leave us for airport immediately we arrive. Anyway, the no nonsense american embassy solved the problem for me: out of about 45 choristers that attended their interview, they only gave visas to 5.
Politics › Re: Presidency ‘Halts Oil Exploration’ In Niger State by dom(m): 11:32am On Oct 10, 2013
my brothers and sisters, Lets stop deceiving ourselves. No be today oil prospecting start for north. The north ruled this country for donkey years. If it was possible to find oil in the north, they'd have found it.Abacha alone committed a lot of resources on this wild goose chase. As a matter of fact, at a point you wouldnt be given license to prospect in the south unless you agreed to prospect in the north too. What came of it? Nothing. Immediately he died the oil companies heaved a sigh of relief,put an end to the hitherto endless search and left the barren northern fields without as much as finding a cup of oil. Rather than continue in this foolhardiness of a prospecting i advise that the north seek, explore and exploit other economically beneficial minerals found in the north.

Education › Re: Most Annoying Common Grammatical Errors In English by dom(m): 6:26pm On Sep 17, 2013
1)The word "severally" does not mean mean several times. It means individually, one by one. As seen in " you all are jointly & severally responsible for the mishap". I find the misuse of this word to be very common. Even respected media houses arent left out,
both print&electronic.
2)It is wrong to say "can be able" or "can't be able". "Can" means "to be able".

Abeg wetin be my comment position?[/quote]my brother, it's matured and experienced comments such as yours that has made me to remain in nairaland since 2006 despite the increasing influx of juveniles and their ever puerile rejoinders. I'm sure many of them don't even know what P.E.F was all about. Nice submission you have there. But let's pray learned SAN is released unscathed. Because truth is that every accused person has a constitutionally guaranteed right to be defended by a lawyer.Otherwise any judgement arising therefrom would be upturned on appeal for lack of fairhearing. I really admire your line of reasoning. Happy Sunday.
Food › Re: 10 Intelligence Killing Foods You Need To Avoid by dom(m): 4:40pm On Aug 15, 2013
Thank you so much for this post. I'm a living casuality. The way alcohol makes me forget things these days is so scary. From my car keys to people's names to where i hid money away. I thank God I graduated 11years ago. Else i for no fit pass even Law 101 in U.I with the way things are now. I'm happy its reversible too. Problem now is how to go teetotal. A big problem considering my weekly liquor intake. My spirit is really bouyed by the reversibility of this selective amnesia. That should serve as the required impetus to cut down to 5 bottles a week for a start. Keep up the good Work, OP.

ehen.where are all those unlettered people that were making noise about a phantom "parliamentary immunity" that would insulate Lloyd from prosecution. Take notice that as it is now, only a political intervention via the Attorney General's "Nolle prosequi" can save this guy from gaol in the face of overwhelming evidence which has - as it were - established his culpability beyond reasonable doubt.

Family › Re: Unlawfully Arrested & Detained By Nigerian Police by dom(m): 10:00am On Jul 19, 2013
first of all i'd like to empathise and say sorry for the embarrasment your dad suffered. I imagine you would have preferred if he hadnt been subjected to that opprobrium. now, about suing. Equity will not suffer a wrong to be without a remedy. So I think you can sue, not for enforcement of fundamental human rights, but for damages. You could proceed by first getting your lawyer to write the state commissioner of police and copy the I.G. In the letter he should narrate your experiences and then ask for a written apology and 50 million naira damages to be paid within 14 days failure of which you'll proceed to court. The letter will compel them to invite your lawyer for settlement out of court. When they pay you the reduced amount don't forget to inform me so i can send my legal bill to you.

atlwireles: Doesn't work that way. Under the OBJ criteria used to retire a lot political exposed officer after he came onboard 1999. Mustapha would have been retired. His course entry mates are either colonels or Brig general as long as they were able to meet army standards and promotion criteria. Mustapha has not met most of those standards, promotion is not automatic in the army..He also due for retirement 2017. The good news here for mustapha is his pension and back pay. What a windfall.
obj retired all military persons who had held political appointments previously. mustapha was a Chief Security Officer to Abacha . so its not likely he'll be retired on that ground. But he'll be retired nonetheless. Probably with the rank of a colonel.

Politics › Re: Michael Chinda Remains Unconscious After Surgery by dom(m): 10:47am On Jul 13, 2013
dolphinife: Some people are so naïve and obsolete in thinking. For some idiots that doesn't know anything about lawmakers affairs, let me enlighten you people a little.

During patricia Etteh's era as the speaker of house of representative, she was enmeshed in a battle of over-bloated corruption. Some lawmakers attempted impeaching her. In the course of the impeachment process, fight broke out and it was free for all. A federal lawmaker who happens to be a medical doctor representing Oyo state was struck with some physical and diabolical objects. He fainted and before he got to the hospital, he died.

The incidence was shown life and direct on the various TV stations, but I know some of us are very shallow minded to remember things. The same incident repeated itself again during Bankole's era as the speaker of the house of representatives, where lawmakers experienced the highest form of street fighting in the hallow chamber. Some many lawmakers were hospitalised, but do they remove or impeach the speaker?


Final Note: whatever happen in the house, remains in the house. Nobody can sue or charge anybody to court. That's the constitution
you've spoken like a layman. Now let me enlighten you a bit. The so called Parliamentary immunity only relates to what is said on the floor of the house. It does not in away extend to criminal acts of attempted murder, which are ipso facto offences against the state . i wish you could cite the relevant section of the constitution you referred to. There's a world of difference between a civil matter and a criminal matter. God forbid, but if anything happens to Chinda, it'll take the special grace of God for Lloyd not to be convicted and hanged for culpable homicide punishable with death a.k.a murder. Those talking about self defence obviously do not know that the trial court will evaluate if the retaliatory act of sustained bludgeoning with a club is commensurate with the knocks and slaps Lloyd was alleged to have received. Someone also mentioned involuntary manslaughter, but successfully wielding that as a defence would be an uphill task in the face of overwhelming damning evidence such as we have seen which has proven Lloyd's culpability beyond reasonable doubt .
Politics › Re: Michael Chinda Remains Unconscious After Surgery by dom(m): 9:49am On Jul 13, 2013
Prof Corruption: The whole case can be trashed in a second by invoking the principle of parliamentary immunity making the so called evidence inadmissible. Besides, the authenticity of the so called video can be contested or even questioned even though we all know actuality of the assault was unmistakable. Who would actually tender the video as exhibit-the police that's clearly a participant in the melee or the one that defence counsel would paint as incompetent? Who's the director of public prosecution in the state?

If he dies, it's in vain. He's one of the collateral damage Okupe talked about.
parliamentary immunityhuh? Thats a new one o. In what section is it contained. Or is it subsumed under diplomatic immunity and gubernatorial immunity. Kindly enlighten me. On who would tender the video in evidence, i suggest you read the amended evidence Act. You should also note that the Attorney General of the Federation has the constitutional power and right to take over the prosecution of any criminal case. the Dpp is a nobody when faced with the immense powers of the AG. Wherefore rejoice?
Education › Re: July 10 Cult Attack In OAU, Ile-Ife by dom(m): 8:52am On Jul 11, 2013
was in U.I then. But the gory news reverberated up to Ibadan with all its graphic details. I recall visiting OAU shortly after and was shown a spot on the floor which they said was one of the deceased's grey matter. It was indeed a very strange occurrence, considering that Ife had been hitherto totally free of cult related activities. I wonder if that case was fully investigated. May they continue resting in peace.
