Joke of the day!  I decided to share this for laughs. Some of these lawyers are just making a ridicule of their profession. Thank God we don't need lawyers to stand for us before we can make heaven. |
Politics › Ebun-Olu Adegboruwa Files Suit Against Buhari Over Delay In Appointing Ministers by midolian(op): 1:41pm On Jun 22, 2015 |
Controversial Lagos Lawyer and Activist, Ebun-Olu Adegboruwa, Esq., of ‘Kogun Chambers, has filed a fresh suit against the government of President Muhammadu Buhari over what he tagged extreme delay in the formation of his cabinet and for running the affairs of Nigeria as lone ranger as well as in a dictatorial manner.
In a suit he filed today at the Federal High Court, Lagos, a copy of which was made available to DAILY POST, the lawyer said the continued stay of action of President Buhari on the appointment of his Ministers was contrary to the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
The lawyer therefore requested for the determination of the following questions:
That : 1. Whether under and by virtue of section 147(1) and (2) of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999, the 1st Respondent is not obliged and under a duty to appoint qualified persons into offices to function as the Ministers of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, upon his swearing in and oath of office since May 29, 2015.
2. Whether the failure, omission or neglect by the 1st Respondent to appoint qualified persons into offices to function as the Ministers of The Federal Republic of Nigeria is not illegal and a contravention of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999, such as to disqualify the 1st Respondent from continuing to function in office as the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
3. Whether the 1st Respondent is entitled to run and administer the affairs of the Federal Republic of Nigeria as his personal family empire or as a lone ranger and in a dictatorial manner, without appointing qualified persons to run the affairs of the country with him in the Federal Executive Council in contravention of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999.
4. Whether under and by virtue of Section 148(1) and (2) of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999, the 1st Respondent is not under a duty to hold regular meetings with Ministers of The Federal Republic of Nigeria, duly appointed by him, to formulate policies for and plan the affairs of the Federal Republic of Nigeria and not to be running and operating same as a private family empire or as a lone ranger or as a dictator.
5. Whether the 1st Respondent, upon his swearing in and oath of office since May 29, 2015, is entitled to abandon, discard or jettison the office and residence of the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, otherwise known as Aso Rock Villa, Federal Capital Territory, Abuja and to be running the affairs of the Federal Republic of Nigeria from some illegal and unknown location or premises other than the said Aso Rock Villa.
6. Whether under and by virtue of Section 150 CFRN 1999, the 1st Respondent being a commissioned officer of the Nigeria Army (now retired) trained strictly in warfare and garrison affairs is so qualified, fit and proper to run the affairs of the Federal Republic of Nigeria alone and without a qualified person appointed into the office of Attorney General of The Federation.
Ebun-Olu however sought the following reliefs against the Presidents:
1. A DECLARATION, that the 1st Respondent having declared his assets and subscribed the oath of office of The President of The Federal Republic of Nigeria, is deemed to be performing the functions of the office of the president and as such has a duty to perform the functions of the office as provided for in the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
2. A DECLARATION, that under and by virtue of Section 147(1) and (2) of the 1999 Constitution, the 1st Respondent is obliged and has a duty to appoint qualified persons into offices to function as the Ministers of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
3. A DECLARATION, that the failure, neglect or omission by the 1st Respondent to appoint qualified persons to function in the offices of Ministers of the Federal Republic of Nigeria to run and administer the affairs of this Federal Republic of Nigeria through the Federal Executive Council, is illegal, unconstitutional and null and void.
4. A DECLARATION that the 1st Respondent is not entitled to run and administer the affairs of the Federal Republic of Nigeria as his private empire or as a lone ranger, or in a dictatorial manner without ministers appointed by him in compliance with the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999.
5. A DECLARATION, that under and by virtue of Section 148 (1) and (2) of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999, the 1st Respondent is under a duty to hold regular meetings with Ministers of the government of the Federation of Nigeria and not to be operating the affairs of Nigeria as his private family empire or as a lone ranger or as a dictator.
6. A DECLARATION that under and by virtue of Section 147 of The Constitution of The Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999, the 1st respondent has a duty to appoint at least one Minister from each State of the Federation of Nigeria and who shall be an indigene of such State, if he is to continue to function in office as President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
7. A DECLARATION that the 1st Respondent being a commissioned officer of the Nigeria Army (now retired) trained strictly and only in warfare and garrison alone, is not a qualified, suitable, fit and proper person to run the affairs of The Federal Republic of Nigeria alone, without appointing qualified persons into the office of Attorney General of the Federation in compliance with Section 150 of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
8. AN ORDER DIRECTING the 1stRespondent to forthwith appoint qualified persons to function in the offices of Ministers of The Federal Republic of Nigeria, in compliance with Section 147 and 14(3) of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999.

10. AN ORDER directing the 1st Respondent to forthwith move to, occupy and possess the Aso Rock Villa, Federal Capital Territory, Abuja, as his designated office and residence, for all the period he is to function in office as President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999.
11. INJUNCTION, restraining the 1stRespondent, from functioning or from continuing to function or further functioning in office as or from performing or continuing to perform the duties of office of the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, without Ministers duly appointed or the Federal Executive Council duly constituted.

Politics › Ben Bruce Ridicules His Critics, Says He Can’t respond during Ramadan by midolian(op): 10:36pm On Jun 18, 2015 |
Ben Bruce, the Senator who is representing the Bayelsa East Senatorial District, has been under Twitter attack all week, most recently in retaliation to his making light of the Osun State Workers salary crisis. Senator Bruce became the target of many Twitter followers and Governor Rauf Aregbesola for saying that he would be 2-As a first step, I am immediately donating my wardrobe allowance to unpaid workers in Osun state and widows in my Constituency. — Ben Murray-Bruce (@benmurraybruce) June 17, 2015 As Twitter responded, one of his followers Tweeted to him: But why is Sen Ben Bruce not donating his wardrobe allowance to Bayelsa state workers? I see his intent to Osun state as political — #BringBackOurGirls (@iam_olutayo) June 18, 2015 Another also responded: That said, Sen. Ben Bruce's comment on Osun workers predicament is despicable. It sounded more like a joke & hungry pple don't joke sir. 2 — Tolulope (@Counsel_TAO) June 18, 2015 The Governor of Osun State, Rauf Aregbesola, responded to Bruce through a statement issued by his Director, Bureau of Communication and Strategy, Mr. Semiu Okanlawon, saying that Senator Bruce has “turned the plight of Nigerian workers to a thing of an entertainment” and that he was “trivialising the salary issue affecting more than half of the States of the Federation in this ridiculous manner.” “Of all the States in the federation who are battling to pay salaries as a result of the precarious economic situation his Party the PDP threw Nigeria into why is it that it is Osun he wants to take his pay to?” he added. Senator Bruce exacerbated the outrage toward his nonchalant attitude by Tweeting that I may not be a Muslim, but I respect Islam and I believe that it is wrong for me to respond to any attack during the Holy month of Ramadan.— Ben Murray-Bruce (@benmurraybruce) June 18, 2015 The Senator attracted widespread attention and criticism earlier this week after the release of the National Assembly Budget. The budget included several expensive allowances for Nigerian legislators including a N8.4 billion-wardrobe allowance. http://saharareporters.com/2015/06/18/ben-bruce-ridicules-his-critics-over-osun-worker-controversy-says-he-can%E2%80%99t-respond-during |
