Don't do that. Focus your mind on the Bible and God and it will go away. A steady girlfriend or marriage will not stop it. Besides, if you have a girlfriend and you have sex with her, it's a sin and not different from the brothel visits. If sex with a girlfriend can stop it, married men will not be visiting brothels.

PoliticsIgp Makes Uturn Suspend Enforcement Cmr by TheAdvocate(op): 12:19pm On Jul 15, 2024
IG makes U-turn, suspends enforcement of E-motor Registry - BarristerNG.com
by Bridget Edokwe · Published July 15, 2024 · Updated July 15, 2024


The Inspector General of Police, Kayode Egbetokun, has suspended the enforcement of electronic central motor registry registration for vehicle owners in the country.

The Force Spokesperson, Muyiwa Adejobi, had on Saturday said the IG ordered that the enforcement of the e-CMR should commence on July 29.


The enforcement order sparked an outcry from Nigerians, who accused the police of creating an opportunity to extort vehicle owners.

Also, according to a Bar Leader and former Vice President of the Nigerian Bar Association, John Aikpokpo-Martins, the directive by Egbetokun to begin enforcing the digitised Central Motor Registry was a blatant disregard for the rule of law.

But in a statement on Sunday, Adejobi announced that the IG has suspended the enforcement of the e-CMR.

He added that there was the need to sensitise the citizens on the initiative, which he said was designed to secure vehicles.

He said, “Following the reconfiguration and commencement of the electronic central motor registry registration process the Police have deemed it necessary to highlight the benefits and effectiveness of the e-CMR initiative which is designed to ensure the safety and security of all types of vehicles including motorcycles by collating data imputed into the system by vehicle owners and acting on such to flag the vehicles if reported stolen.

“The e-CMR will provide a firsthand database to the Force for curbing vehicular crimes as dedicated officers can access real-time comprehensive data of every vehicle on their tablets.

“Similarly, the e-CMR will prevent multiple registrations of vehicles and serve as a database to collate biometric and other data of vehicle owners and individuals, adding value to the national database and incident report portal generated from other Ministries, Departments and Agencies towards general security.”

Adejobi denied that the e-CMR was a revenue-generating platform.

He said, “Furthermore, contrary to news making the rounds and insinuations about the e-CMR, the NPF wishes to state categorically that the e-CMR is not a revenue-generating platform but an initiative to digitalize policing for effectiveness and general safety of lives and property of Nigeria residents. “

Adejobi said the IG ordered the immediate suspension he had earlier given.

He stated, “The Inspector-General of Police, IGP Kayode Egbetokun has ordered an immediate suspension of the proposed enforcement of the e-CMR initially scheduled to commence on the 29th of July, 2024. This is to give ample opportunity for mass enlightenment and education of all citizens and residents on the process, benefits and effectiveness in solving the challenge of vehicle-related crimes, and protection of individual and corporate vehicle ownership.”

Adejobi sought the understanding of the citizens and key into the initiative.

He warned police officers to stop requesting the e-CMR certificate from vehicle owners, adding that anyone caught would be punished.

Adejobi added, “ In light of this, we seek the understanding and support of all well-meaning Nigerians and residents to key into the e-CMR system. In the same vein, the IGP charges all Police officers to desist from requesting e-CMR certificates as individuals found extorting or exploiting members of the public on the guise of not having e-CMR certificates will be sanctioned accordingly as the enforcement which will be done by only dedicated officers has been suspended till further notice. “

We all can see the excesses of this governors... this is one of the major reasons most peeps are against state police... with all this depose and undepose currently sweeping the nation, how do we trust this governors not to misuse their authorities when state police finally get approved?

If state police mistakenly get approved, then don't expect any opposition party to win any states in guber elections going forward.

Any chief is under the control of the Commissioner for Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs. The state governor appoints all chiefs & gives them staff of office. He can hire and fire them as he wants. A certain Sultan of Sokoto Maccido was sacked from office and the heavens didn't fall.

We don't need them because they are a heavy drain on the increasing cost of governance.

In a show of support and complete loyalty to Mr. President after the democracy day fall, former President Olusegun Obasanjo was captured rocking the Tinubu cap at a public function recently.

Make of this whatever you like but the fact remains, there is no permanent friend or permanent enemy in politics. It’s all about interest and nothing else.

Acknowledging receipt of a letter is not an endorsement of the capacity of the writer or the content of the document. Any letter served is acknowledged.
The declaration of the vacancy of a seat vacant by INEC is merely administrative. Even without the declaration, a vacant seat is vacant. A speaker can declare a seat vacant.

Considering the responses on this thread, it obvious most of those who commented didn't bother to read the news, they only reacted to the headline.

There is nothing known in law as forced eviction. The proper notices must be served and a court of law will determine the eviction. This is self-help.

The Truth about 'Michael' the Dadin Kowa, Jos suicide bomber arrested yesterday at UBA Dadin Kowa :
The young man joined the queue at the bank and wrote a note to the teller, telling him he is strapped with a bomb , he needs 100 million or he detonate the bomb.
The 'teller' calmly communicated to the bank authorities who professionally opened the exit door for customers. They told him they were making arrangement for the 100 million. The bank called security and on arrival, a warning shot was fired. The shot scared the boy and he ran outside showing security his strapped body or he detonate the bomb. At first, security and passer bys ran away but they later summoned courage and chased after him. That was when it was discovered it was a fake bomb ladened with cellotape and plastics.
On interrogation, he told the security he's from Edo and arrived Jos last year. He stays in staff college and a raid of his room showed machetes, plastics, cellotape and other items.
On arrival at the police station, Michael gave four different names and claim he's 17. He also refused to write any statement. The DSS, STF, NIA and NSA have shown interest in the case to unravel the circumstance surrounding the case.

In fact to the last Kobo. Plus cost of litigation which includes all appearance fees paid and professional fees. If your landlord doesn't want you, just move. A lawyer can only buy time for you. Remember I said "buy time" because you will pay your lawyer and pay your landlord's lawyer.
PropertiesRe: Notice To Quit by TheAdvocate(m): 10:00pm On May 07, 2024
The law is that the landlord MUST not give you the required 6 or 3 months' notice as the case may be if he has a good lawyer. He can wait until your rent expires then serve you with a 7-day notice to quit. He can also serve you with a letter asking you not to renew rent at the expiration of your current tenancy. Technically, it's not a quit notice but you and I know that it's a quit notice. The law is that a landlord can evict a tenant when he denies the landlord's title to the property, for renovations or personal use. With regards to renovations, the provision is that he should put the tenant back after renovations therefore lawyers tend to just say that the reason for the eviction is to put the property for personal use.
Take note that you are to pay your rent even if you overstay for 1 day. I know this because I am a lawyer and I advise you to just move once your landlord gives you a notice to quit.

At best, what the court can do in the circumstances is to order that status quo before hostilities be maintained.
