Oga, if you smell you smell. Embrace the message don't attack the messenger
LawWithEbele: Her Name Was on the Land Documents... But the Court Declared Her Husband The owner of The Land
She had the Certificate of Occupancy in her name.She believed the land in Abuja was hers.But when the marriage ended, the court said, “No, it belongs to him.”
This is not fiction. It happened in the real case of Madu v. Madu [2002] 13 NWLR (Pt. 783) 231.
Here’s what you should know:
Grace Madu and her husband had a customary marriage. She applied for land, and the allocation was made in her name. But when things fell apart and she took the matter to court, claiming the land as hers...
She lost. Why? Because the court discovered:
The husband paid for the land.
He processed the allocation.
He collected the certificate.
He developed the property and rented it out.
She couldn’t prove any financial contribution.
The court applied the principle of resulting trust (A resulting trust happens when one person pays for a property but puts it in another person’s name, and the law assumes it wasn’t a gift. So, the person holding the title is just keeping it in trust for the real owner.), saying the name on the Certificate of Occupancy doesn’t automatically mean ownership, especially when someone else bore the financial burden.
What You Must Learn from This:
1. Your name on the document doesn’t guarantee ownership.Equity may favor the person who paid, not the person named.
2. Always document your contributions.If you helped pay for a property, protect your interest legally. Don’t rely on love or promises.
3. Understand resulting trust.If you’re only the ‘name’ on the land, and not the person who paid, you may be holding it in trust.
Too many women lose everything when marriages fail. Not because they did anything wrong, but because they didn’t understand the legal consequences of ownership and documentation.
Don’t wait for heartbreak before protecting your rights.
I am Ebelechukwu Aroh-Nwoka, your family and property lawyer. I help you use the law to protect what matters most.
Friends, have you ever contributed to a property that wasn’t in your name? What happened? Share your experience, someone needs to learn from it.

Great100000: Super Eagles striker, Victor Osimhen has been crowned the Golden Boot winner in the Turkish Super Lig.
He scored 26 goals this season as Galatasaray claimed their 25th league title. He was also named the Player of the Season in the Turkish league.
Osimhen registered 37 goals and eight assists in all competitions and helped his side to a domestic double, winning both the league and the Turkish Cup.
The Nigerian forward is widely rated as one of Europe’s finest strikers this season, with top clubs like Al Hilal, Juventus, and Manchester United reportedly eyeing him.
Galatasaray, however, are keen on retaining his services, aiming to build their team around him.
What makes Osimhen’s season particularly remarkable is that it has put him in contention for a second CAF Men’s Player of the Year award.
However, he faces stiff competition from other African stars who also had exceptional campaigns—and some might be slightly ahead of him in the race.
Achraf Hakimi is one of those players. The Moroccan fullback finished second to Ademola Lookman in last year’s CAF awards, but this season he looks like a clear favorite.
He played a vital role in Paris Saint-Germain’s quadruple-winning campaign, including scoring in the UEFA Champions League final.
With nine goals and 14 assists, Hakimi’s attacking output is phenomenal for a right-back.
Beyond the stats, his stamina, tactical intelligence, and ability to transition from defense to attack were crucial for PSG all season.
Mohamed Salah is also in the conversation—and deservedly so. He had yet another outstanding season, winning the Premier League, Golden Boot, and Playmaker Award.
The Egyptian scored 29 goals and provided 18 assists in the league, and finished the season with a staggering 34 goals and 23 assists in all competitions. At 32, Salah’s consistency remains unmatched.
He also became the fifth-highest goal scorer in Premier League history, with 186 goals.
Additionally, he was named Premier League Player of the Season and FWA Footballer of the Year.
Serhou Guirassy is perhaps the most underrated name among the contenders. The Guinean striker had an incredible season and was instrumental for Borussia Dortmund.
He ended the Champions League campaign as the joint-top scorer, with 13 goals—sharing the Golden Boot with Raphinha.
In the Bundesliga, Guirassy scored 21 goals and had 10 assists across all competitions.
Despite Dortmund’s poor overall form, Guirassy’s contributions helped the club finish strong, going unbeaten in their last eight matches to secure Champions League qualification.
His hat-trick against Barcelona in the knockout stage was a career-defining performance.
All four players had phenomenal seasons, and while they all deserve recognition, the CAF Men’s Player of the Year award will ultimately come down to votes—which may be influenced by individual biases.
Frontrunners for the CAF Men’s Award:
1. Achraf Hakimi – Outstanding contribution from right-back in a historic PSG season. Often overlooked because of his position, but his impact was immense.
2. Serhou Guirassy – Delivered big moments in a struggling team. If he had better service or media hype, his achievements would be even more celebrated.
3. Mohamed Salah – A phenomenal season again, but his underwhelming displays against PSG in the Champions League, the FA Cup loss to Plymouth, and the Carabao Cup final hurt his case.
4. Victor Osimhen – Had a superb campaign, but the Turkish league’s relatively lower profile may affect his chances.
DevLaive: I stumbled upon my late Uncle's University of Calabar second semester past questions in the Department of Educational Foundations and Administration. That's over 37 years ago.
What's your take? Are the standards still the same today?
justwise: It’s not illegal not to pay TV licence (not sure you know much about the UK system)
Yes you can renegotiate some bills and if you’re income is not enough to pay your bills then reconsider your location, reduce your outgoing or look for another job.
lolz
Ki lomode e mo
Once you watch live program on Youtube as little as Pastor Jerry Eze...you have to pay.
Negotiate what?
Council tax or road tax..even the least insurance you can get will be close to £100
preciouswoman66: Don't be childish. The bolded is stupid!! Why try rubbish the identity "Nigerians"?
Since time immemorial, that has always been the case regardless of race, gender, country of origin, religious belief or what so ever categories
People go into something because of someone or group of people. Haven't you heard of the word "founder", "inventor", "creator", and others related to them
Anywhere belle face even if you don't have what it takes...na them zombies
Mindlog: That £1500 monthly is for one who is on minimum wage, paying for bills for services being rendered......so what is the recurrent expenditure of a Nigerian worker in Nigeria earning the minimum wage of N70,000 and how much is him/her saving monthly?
How many people are paid above that?
Ave worker in the uk earn between £1500 to £2000
Very few are in the higher bracket
You don't get it, the Nigerians in the UK didn't earn 70k while they were in Nigeria
They lived in 2-3 bedroom, have one or two cars while they were in Nigeria...only to get to UK n be living in cubicle or non standard 2 bedrooms with one toilet.
Can't afford to use more than one car cos of the expenses that comes with it
justwise: Again..council tax pays for services rendered to you by the council and keep the city running, you are basically paying for services you enjoy.
You don’t have to pay for TV licence, thousands don’t pay it.
If you are struggling with monthly payments then how can you afford to pay yearly?
How about moving back to Nigeria where things are almost free?
While living in Nigeria we complain about the system not working even when we pay for services, you moved to the UK where the system works and you enjoy what you paid for and you are still complaining?
It's illegal, you can go to jail for it
Council tax is already high, yet you pay water bill separately. These bills come monthly without enough inflow to settle them. These bills are not in your control. They are non negotiable
Living pay check to pay check isn't life. How can you be earning £1500 and your recurrent expenditure is £1200 . That's a rat race
