The Article About Nothing.

So, after so much dilly dallying on my part, I finally decided to travel on Sunday but then, I had to put up one last show of my genius; I had to confuse "Village People" by announcing that I'd travel on Saturday... My journey was largely uneventful majorly because I was travelling in a bus that had a more than fair share of nursing mothers strutting their respective breasts in a bid to feed their always hungry babies: this of course lacked the capability of interesting me. Well, things took a twist in my rather boring journey as men of the Nigerian Police Force stopped our bus to carry out a thorough check probably because we looked suspicious (I'm guessing this suspicion was stroked by the fact that my eyes were as red as whatever you can imagine as a result of my "highness" and because I wore a black face cap, a black top and a black trousers). I was searched and fortunately for me, I decided to leave my kitchen knife in school, and I had run out of su...

TRANSFORMING LAW INTO SOCIAL ORDER: SUSTAINING NATIONAL DEVELOPMENT BY RECALIBRATING NIGERIA’S FAILED APPROACH

Image
Man is a social creature but so are dogs and chimpanzees and in fact, we have biological predispositions like the other animals on earth. But, what is different about us humans is that we have linguistic abilities and are guided by reason. We are the only creatures capable of consciously and intentionally creating systems of rules and institutions to help order our lives by giving us reasons to behave in one way or the other. What is distinctive about law in this sense however, is that the creation and enforcement of legal rules is accomplished by the state, including its near monopoly on lawful enforcement.

Indeed, the mirror is a miraculous invention without which man will commit great sins against decorum. Despite the horizontal division of government, the toga of...

Not Too Young To Lead.

Image
One of the most important and contemporary legislations initiated by the current Nigerian National Assembly is the "Not too young to run" bill which essentially seeks to reduce the age qualification for elective offices in Nigeria and consequently give young persons a greater opportunity to seek elective positions. The bill is quite commendable and in tune with the realities, expectations and yearnings of the time. Clearly, this bill seeks to amend the following sections of the extant 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria: Section 131(b) which provides that the anyone who wishes to be President of Nigeria should be at least 40 years old. Section 177(b) which stipulates 35 years as the age that qualifies one to contest for the position of Governor. Section 65(1)(a)  which has 30 years as the age limit that anyone who wishes to be a member of the National Assembly must reach. Section 166(b) which also has 30 years as the qualifying age for anyone who wishes...
