supercase1: Why do lawywers/judges wear wigs on their heads in court.it's quite funny must they wear wigs on their head, can't they do without wigs caps? pls explain!!! ! WHY DO NIGERIAN LAWYERS WEAR WIGS AND BLACK GOWNS?Ever wondered why Nigerian lawyers wear those black robes/gowns and white wigs when they appear in court? Well wonder no more, this blog is going to explain the strange history behind the practice. After the British colonized Nigeria, we adopted the same legal system and by extension all the paraphernalia that came with it. One of which was the costume of the British barrister. The Wig The culture of lawyers wearing wigs in court actually has its roots in, believe it or not, fashion! Charles II returned to England from France and brought with him the trend of the ‘periwig‘ from Louis XIV’s court. English society adopted the trend, as did barristers, it became the ‘in-thing’ for people, especially wealthy people, to wear wigs. The practice of wearing wigs fell into 2 camps: Those who wore wigs in order to hide the fact that they were getting bald Those who wore wigs because they had shaved their hair in order to prevent infestations (lice infestations was a big worry back then). So, it was fashionable to see everyday people (obviously only the wealthy people could afford it) wearing wigs. That is how the wearing of wigs got into the courts. However, over the years, the wearing of wigs began to get less and less fashionable and eventually people stopped wearing them, however by this time, lawyers and judges felt it sufficiently differentiated them from others and so they kept on the practice…and now more than 300 years down the line, that is why you would go to Igbosere (or any of our many courts round the country) and find a room full of Nigerian men and women all wearing wigs. https://lawpadi.com/why-do-nigerian-lawyers-wear-wigs-and-black-gowns |

generationz: How have you been feeding and funding your businesses that went down?
You keep counting your woes, why not count your blessings.
You say you are an OND holder so that means you finished your two-year degree.
So, tell me how everything your hand touches has near success syndrome.
There are people in this country who have written jamb over six times trying to get into an higher institution.
Do you know that Akin Alabi failed severally before he started Nairabet in his late 30's. He even failed lost his first election.
Go and read about the story of Jack ma and see how failure was his middle name before creating Chinas biggest e-commerce website Alibaba.
When you fail at somethings, you don't start thinking of suicide, you will first consider what you did wrong and what you should so better.
As Africans we must learn to do self analysis from time to time.
The road to success isn't paved with gold.
You need to surround yourselves with bright minds and know that for every successful entrepreneur there are about 100 who lost their business in the first five years. Will they attribute to spiritual problems? No.
If I start selling bags on Instagram today and no one buys a bag in 6 months will I start blaming village people? No
I'll consider the industry im in, my chances to break ou.t, my advertisement strategy, how I display my goods, my customer service etc.
You didn't fail as a student oya start counting your blessings from there. Today is Sunday. Go to church and thank God for even the smallest blessing.
Please, try as much as possible to speak only positive words of affirmations to yourself. Make it an habit everyday. You'll see your dream pattern will change, your entire life will change.
Even Jesus Christ when people didn't believe he was Gods son he kept referring to God as "My father." It was a strange thing for anybody to call God father then. Even his disciples and mother didn't understand or believe him yet he won't stop speaking positive words and calling God his father. There is power in "The word" Jesus, and in "the word" your tongue. Wow, decent and polished ladies are hard to find esp on NL! BUT YOU ARE DEFINITELY DECENT & POLISHED ***in my deepest baritone voice*** " hello sexy"  |
