Romance / Re: LET’S TALK!! Have You Ever Advise Someone & Regret Doing So? (share Your Experie by rexesq(m): 3:05pm On Jul 28, 2021 |
A girl I knew then (cuz I no care ifor she still deh exist) who was dating my friend and colleague for some years approached me to complain that her guy was not proposing or making moves towards that. I tried advising her on possibilities of getting proposals from him as soon as she expected and made her see reasons why she should give him more time, pray for him and stand by him. In the course of our discussion she intended to know how well I knew him. I stressed further on one or two things which he did in the far past, while he was in school ,like including smoking, which the girl was aware of. I reminded her of a sister who troubled her guy so much and they got mmarried and barely a couple of weeks the girl sought for divorce. She offered her thanks and I accepted. Brothers and sisters in the Lord, partners in crime and dear public critics, this girl called her guy-my friend to inform him that I said he is a smoker and that he had dated someone before her. And that the divorce seeking girl had such intention because she preferred her guy (my friend). I received the greatest insult of my life. Till date my friend has failed to believe me. I stress not on it. He called me a betrayer and wondered why I should have told her anything at all. That bros is happily married today. Sister nkor, she still deh fast and pray... I wish them well. But I missed my friend till date. |

Celebrities / Re: Obi Cubana Flouted Laws At His Mother's Burial, May Be Jailed For 6 Months by rexesq(m): 4:28pm On Jul 17, 2021 |
I appreciate the article as published by the sun online news publication below. This was a direct answer to that unenforceable law. https://www.sunnewsonline.com/the-bill-to-curtail-burial-spending-in-anambra/ By Solomon A. Ikongshul I read with awe the move by lawmakers in Anambra State to curb spending at burials. It is pertinent to consider the legality or otherwise of such moves by the Anambra State House of Assembly so as to praise or condemn such in our legal system. Let us first consider the intention of the Bill initiated by Charles Ezeani representing Anaocha 2 Constituency of the state. According to the story in Daily Post of April 16, Charles said “burial rites constitute 60 to 70 per cent of socio-cultural activities in the state, where the wealthy showcase their economic might.” Thus, the Bill “seeks to curtail outrageous demands on families of the deceased by traditions and customs enforced by elders, without any consideration for financial capacity”. Moreover, “the trend also created room for unhealthy competition among families and friends, each trying by every means to outshine the other.” He concluded by saying that “this unacceptable behaviour has informed the need for a law to control burial ceremonies and other related matters.” The aim is “…to encourage the celebration of people when they are alive.” The features of the future law in Anambra includes outlining cost cutting measures, revenue generation for the state, guidelines on duration, ways and manner burials should be organised. Furthermore, the argument in favour of this Bill which has passed its second reading as posited by the Speaker, Rita Maduagu, is that the bill will help people feel less pain when they are bereaved and not incur debts after the loss of their loved ones. Burial rights are funerary customs which comprise the complex of beliefs and practices used by a culture to remember and respect the dead. According to freedictionary, it is a ceremony or group of ceremonies held in connection with the burial or cremation of a dead person. It can also be referred to as death rites and comprises any of the acts or customs employed at the time of death and burial. In Nigeria, such rites differ across different cultures. As a matter of fact, Africa as a whole considers the burying of their dead an important tradition and in some parts of Nigeria, it may last for weeks while some may take just days, and others, that very day alone. It is also cultural in some areas to slaughter a good number of fattened oxen in honour of the dead. In the recent past, ‘mourners’ were hired to attend burials and render their services of gracing the burial grounds with their howls, yells and weeping, even to the extent of rolling on the ground; this did not go without pecuniary benefit such that, hilariously enough, they could abruptly suspend their action to negotiate their bargain. This practice is still in place in some parts of Nigeria. A careful perusal of the above consideration can lead us to one irresistible conclusion namely, to agree with Charles that such rites constitute 60 to 70 per cent of socio-cultural activities in the state; but to agree more that it is where the wealthy showcase their economic might begs more questioning. If the culture and tradition of honouring the dead is repugnant to natural justice, equity and good conscience, such can be expunged from the society. From this situation, what then is the yardstick? Can it be said that the act of expressing one’s feelings towards his deceased via elaborate spending in the best way he can, fails the repugnancy test? The answer is NO! The spending as we know in this context includes invitation of friends from far and near, provision of accommodation and other logistics where necessary, buying of drinks, food, hiring of live band if needed; this is according to the strength of family(ies) or chief mourner(s). What about those who purchase golden caskets? Or who dig expensive underground graves? Or who construct transparent graves to enable them see their deceased from time to time? What about those who have, categorically in their wills, put in place measures and burial expenses and description of the nature of burial and friends to invite. Will such laws vitiate the dead man’s last wish or testamentary depositions? There are more things to check in order to ‘ban’ the custom, culture or tradition of a given society than using economic means as justification. It is a lame excuse and an attempt to unjustly raise revenue for the government as earlier stated in the intent. This is more or less robbing Peter to pay Paul. Constitutionally, such attempts by the Bill offend S. 39 of the Constitution which spiritually and physically guarantees right of expression and S. 17(1) and (2) – THE SOCIAL OBJECTIVES OF the State towards her citizens. You can legislate on legal ways to source money but not how to judiciously spend it. Does the law consider the money ‘spent’ in brothels with sex workers too? There should be no wrong hiring undertakers, mourners or dancers or entertainers by those who can. Where, however, the proposed law entails protection of the destitute, or indigent or penniless from exploitation, then that will be welcomed with an acclamation; even the bankrupt and beggared can sing praises. I conclude by saying, that as the bill aims to reduce the pains and expenses of the bereaved, it should not in any way be inconsistent with the provisions of the constitution, lest it be null and void to the extent of its inconsistency.

BadBradley: No point abusing her. I minus the abuses and adopt your message. Good point. There's no time for distraction in these young marriages. Couples need to understand this. Build your home. Support your spouses morally and physically. Let go of some folks, never hate them. There is no point for the young woman who should be there now for her husband to have such huge distraction checking up often for a male friend who tries to distance himself away. I have been and am still close to some of my old female friends back then on school, however, we are not just an arms length away, but world apart. Calling when necessary. We use to act in admirable way to the chagrin of the public back then. We support, argue for, assist academically, spiritually and financially but no sex.

Crime / Re: EFCC Distances Self From Dismissed Staff, Peter Akpanke by rexesq(m): 8:57am On May 11, 2021 |
This story is having an undertone. I see 2023 politics staring in earnest but in an evil way. Once, it was reported as can be seen hereunder with links attached: /en/index.php/news/9-news/34-impersonation "Mr. Peter Akpanke who has been arrested by men of the State Security Services in Calabar, Cross River State for allegedly impersonating as an official of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) alongside two Cross River State Government officials. The state government officials whose names were given as Rufus Awu and Charles Ikpeme are on board appointments of the State Commercial Transport Regulatory Agency (CTRA). They two alongside with Peter Akpanke were arrested on Saturday in a hotel in Calabar while perfecting plans to extort over N10 million through a phantom fraud petition against an official of the Cross River State Government. Impeccable sources disclosed that Rufus and Charles, the alleged masterminds of the petition recruited Peter who was a subject of disclaimer by the authority of the EFCC into the plan to rubbish the state official and to make him part with some money for allegedly refusing to share government revenue with them. The suspects were said to have engaged the unsuspecting state official with phone calls and a promise to get his boss in Abuja to throw away the petition only if the official will play ball with the sum of N10 million and was said to have made spurious efforts to hoodwink the official to part with the said sum. However the lid on the scam blew when the hatchet men gathered at the hotel in Calabar to finalize their plans, since the state official decided to play along, this led Peter to invite him to come over with the cash but according to sources, unknown to the trio men of the SSS acting on a tip off surrounded the hotel premises and arrested them. Eyewitness account has it that the suspects are currently cooling their heels at the SSS office in Calabar, while investigation has commenced into the matter." Surprisingly, it was published on their (EFCC) WEBSITE with picture attached. To shock us, even Nigerian though electric no fit shock us let alone this, the said Peter Akpanke on an exclusive interview with cross river watch claimed he was not dismissed. I believe he had even challenged anything of such to be shown. I suppose he must have said he is proceeding to court. See details of the interview on cross river watch below in the link provided. https://crossriverwatch.com/2021/04/i-wasnt-dismissed-from-efcc-peter-akpanke/ Make I end here as I watch things unfold.

He has not paid the protesting magistrates. He rather looked for a way to remove them not only from the protest ground but courts with a promise to see what he can do. The other time I read that one of his aides resigned for receiving salary without work. Now this one is threatening to take his life. When we have legislators that are doing yes sir yes sir for the governor ... Ayade will pay for these! He claims he has tested poverty before. So he sees how it is to have money? State funds that are misplaced. Apart from political appointments what employment, pensionable, has the short man made since his inception as governor. In fact, since he joined politics? 5 Likes |

I remember this has been a lingering post. It was once posted here as follows: 29 Magistrates In Cross River State Remain Unpaid For Over 18 Months; by rexesq(m): 6:50am On Jul 25, 2020 The viral news of an unnamed Magistrate in Cross River State who was arraigned before his colleague for non-payment of house rent had not gone to bed as more details are spunning up in the state. Cross River Watch had taken steps to look into pending issues and such has revealed that 29 Magistrates duly recruited in the State have not been paid their 18 months salaries, despite been subjected to training at various courts and at the National Judicial Instititute, Abuja. It may not have been unconnected with the tussle between the State Governor Ben Ayade and the Judiciary as per who heads the Courts as the substantive CJ. Believe me, this has caused undue hardship to those duly recruited and currently manning their various courts. They dispense justice, they have given judgments, convicted culprits, and do all what other Magistrates can do. They are however exposed to corruption as lawyers seem to take advantage of thier unpaid status and thereby entice them with envelops to obtain judgements in thier favours. Read details on Cross River Judiciary: 29 Magistrates Cries Over 18 Month Salary As Governor Ayade Copes With CJ Crisis, Two Suits By 22 State Counsels This is coming at a time the Cross River State Government has been in locked-in battle over its modus operandi and vivendi in the judiciary.

I recommend a thesis by Solomon Ayangkong Ikongshul (2020), "THE DEFENDANT’S CONFRONTATIONAL RIGHT AND THE INTEREST OF THE ALLEGED VICTIM UNDER INTERNATIONAL LAW" It is a research work that covers that field. Even though it focuses on International law, it also delves into the national and regional jurisprudence on that issue. |
