Generally law school Bar finals is known to be one of the hardest professional exams in the whole world. That being said, a situation where 4000 students fail out of 6000 is simply unacceptable. infact it is an indictment of the lecturers who taught the students and the law school system as a whole. It begs the questions whether the lecturers really impacted anything in a majority of the students if 70% of those who took the exams can fail. The DG has to take a good look at himself. When he was taking over from Tahir Mamman last year, I told my friends just going into law school that they were lucky because he would want the first set under him to do well and the result would consequently generally be very good. Subsequent events however proved me wrong. The DG reduced the time of MCQ from 60 minutes to 50 minutes without properly informing all the campuses and the students. MCQ that when I was doing mine few years ago, I was hardly able to finish within 60 mins, not to talk of now removing ten minutes from the time. God also knows where and how the DG set the questions. I have a friend who graduated from the university with a 2.1 and who I know to be very intelligent, but he told me that during civil litigation exam, he was basically lost and was counting the ceiling. The problem is that the new DG is trying at all cost to prove that he is different from the old one and he did this at the expense of the students. To all those who failed, next year will be your year IJN. To those who passed and scaled the tsunami, congrats and welcome to the bar. God bless! 10 Likes |

this mass failure on the part of the law graduate is an indication that the lecturers have also failed. After charging exhorbitantly to take the exams this is totally unacceptable. 5 Likes |

my dad, who is s federal high court judge told me that the judges are complaining over increasing number of unemployed barristers on the street, that it is making the noble profession looks ordinary and with time, people will start disrespecting the profession by the time barristers start settling for meager jobs to make ends meet. they blamed the universities and particularly the law school for graduating barristers higher than the law stipulated for them. may be this mass failure is connected to this. ..just saying sha 5 Likes |

Leopantro: First of all, did you read this article? Its the law school that's failed them, not a single University or Faculty. Secondly, if 2/3 of an entire set is failing the problem is not with the students, its with the school. 3 Likes |

Gone are the days when i respected the law profession so much. It was a respected discipline back in the university as we see them all as intelligent and brave, but as of today I can't say any more. That's not to say we still don't have intelligent once. Young peeps nowadays wanna go for the law profession coz of the way the world see it than what they need to contribute in the society. God help our graduates of these age... 2 Likes |

hardbody: Oga, "tweeting n doing all sorts of social media" does not stop one from reading... My subscription was on throughout the exams I was always on NL plus I was always updating one down four to go BBM.. You know what? I passed. The mass failure is from the system . Drastically changing marking scheme when they told us it will start from next set, reducing exam time without prior notice and marking down students was the cause. 7 Likes |

It calls to question the credibility of the exam and the integrity of the other lawyers degree. Could it be that it is only this set that performed poorly or the other sets were equally bad but enjoyed leniency in the marking system. A serious probe into what went wrong should be made. More so, which kind of examiner would take pride in deliberately failing candidates so massively? #Issorai 3 Likes |

This guys should be ashamed of themselves. What will they tell their kids who come back from school, failed an examination and begin to tell the parents that he failed because the principal wants him to fail. Will you not scold that child? The question these lazy 'lawyers' must answer is, what does the DG stands to gain by failing them? Nothing. They should go and resit for the examination jor and stop complaining. |

This is rubbish. I read at the Nigerian Law School Lagos in 2008/2009, when Onadeko was the Deputy-Director General. I also served as the Students Representative Council Chairman and had a good relationship with Onadeko whom I had hitherto been warned about regarding his hauteur nature. My relationship with Onadeko revealed him to be a man of strict academic and behavioral disciple and it inspired me to work hard both in academic and professional excellence. It is on record at the Law school among my colleagues that I wrote my exams from the sick bay and yet earned a 2'2, it is also on record that many older students with years of working experience all passed as against the fresh school leavers duing my time. You cannot beat hard work. Most Law Students are lazy and have no idea what they are at the Law School for. My first cousin just wrote this same exam and graduated with a 2'1. I shall be at her call to bar, but I hasten to add that I marveled at the way she read; my God she read and always asked me questions. Nonsense! If the Law School decides to go against the Council of Legal Education ethics and publish some of the results, Nigerians would be so shocked that giving young lawyers briefs would be herculean! My advice, they should go and prepare for re-sit! 4 Likes |
