@Oluwanonso_Esq Congratulations sir

Her question is very valid, and the lower cut off requirement in JAMB for polys isn't the reason that the classism exists. Rather, it's a result of the classism. To understand how it came into existence, you need to go back to 1963 to the Morgan Commission of Enquiry....

[Lateef Omoyemi Akangbe, SAN @OmoyemiAkangbe]

Distinguished Colleagues,

For far too many members of this Association, the annual payment of the Bar Practising Fee has been an exercise in institutional obligation without a corresponding experience of institutional value. The question that too many lawyers ask but rarely say aloud is: what, precisely, does my BPF get me?

Under an LOA presidency, that question has twelve specific answers.

One: Free digital stamp and seal for all members on payment of the BPF, with permanent migration to a secure digital imprint stamp that eliminates the logistical failures of the current physical distribution system.

Two: Free access to Law Pavilion, the New Weekly Law Reports, and electronic law reports for all lawyers of zero to ten years at the Bar, removing a significant recurring cost of practice from the members who can least absorb it.

Three: Reactivation of the N1.5 billion single-digit interest rate loan scheme, with improved accessibility, clearer eligibility criteria, and an Islamic finance option for members who require non-interest arrangements.

Four: Increase in the NBA life insurance payout from N2 million to N4 million in the event of death or complete incapacitation, with corresponding upward reviews for terminal illness and partial incapacitation.

Five: Free qualitative training through the NBA-ICLE, with at least seven CPD hours available free to young lawyers every month.

Six: A comprehensive NBA member application, NBA One, modelled on the International Bar Association's member platform, through which every member can interface with the Secretariat and conduct all NBA activities.

Seven: Free NBA Journal for all financial members on payment of the BPF.

Eight: A health insurance scheme open to all members, with twenty members per branch covered at no cost each year and a minimum additional health fund investment of N20 million.

Nine: Free Annual General Conference attendance for members who are seventy years and above, excluding Senior Advocates of Nigeria.

Ten: A twenty per cent reduction in conference fees for young lawyers.

Eleven: A national mentorship scheme for young lawyers, structured across three tracks: one-to-one mentorship pairing, group and speed mentorship, and the Law Firm Mentorship Initiative providing institutional guidance between established firms and start-up practices.

Twelve: Five per cent of the NBA's annual income set aside for career development, scholarships, and sponsorships specifically targeting young lawyers.

Each of these commitments is drawn directly from the published LOA manifesto. Each has a delivery mechanism. Each has a funding basis. None of them are new ideas that appeared only in election season. They are the coherent welfare programme of a candidate who understands what NBA membership should feel like.

Membership in the NBA should not feel like a tax. Under LOA, it will feel like belonging to an institution that is genuinely working for you.

Vote LOA. 18 July 2026.

A lawyer friend mentioned this week that he was trying to perfect a ₦2 million ($1429) bail for a client whose offence was advertising on Instagram without the advertising regulator's approval.

I’d seen ad professionals complain about ARCON’s overreach before, but this was

[Ogundipe, Esq. @The_Ogundipe]

We all use "See the case of XYZ" in our written briefs. I believe that Judges are used to it. However, I am increasingly becoming conscious of it, because it appears kind of abrupt (arguable). So, other options that we can adopt or use alongside "See the case of..." are:

1. The Court may be guided by the decision in…
2. The Supreme Court affirmed this principle in...
3. The law was settled in…
4. The Supreme Court held in…
5. This position was clearly stated by the Court of Appeal in...
6. Our submission finds support in…
7. This position was reaffirmed in…
8. The authority of A v. B is instructive on this point.

Let me tell you about the picture in Frame 1.

In August 2017, as a litigation lawyer in Lagos, I had work to do that required me to be at the office during the weekend.

There was only one problem that weekend.

I had a 16 months old son, no nanny and no one to leave him with at home so I asked my boss if I could bring him with me and she was gracious enough to agree. While I was working, my son fell asleep and I had to lay him down on the floor beside my table.

In that moment, I took a picture of him sleeping and made a promise to myself that if I ever had my own firm, at some point in that journey, no woman working with me who had a caregiver emergency and needs to be at work will have to lay her baby on the floor.

That same day, I thought of my struggles as a breastfeeding mother in the workplace and promised again that no woman working with me who had a baby will ever have to struggle for a private space to use her breast pump at work, relieve her aching breast to focus and save some quality milk for her baby.

Frame 2
Today, we finished the renovation of our office building complete with a nursing room.

Litigation is tough for women.

The firm should not make it tougher.

Strichland LP has a nursing room and today, by the grace of God, I kept that promise.

❤️

Did You visit all the men at their workplace and they told you this rubbish you put up?

[Chisom Agbafor @ChisomAgbafor]

I want to tell married women who cook for their husbands to bring to work:

They don’t eat the food.
They order outside.
Most times, they give your food to colleagues in the office.

You just dey stress yourself.

But u no go still hear word!!!

[Mr Ohiorhenuan @OKristopha]

@Etaba_agbor The group also opposed Olumide Akpata's election. It's embarrassing.

[Mr Ohiorhenuan @OKristopha]

Curious, please what law says genocide can only be perpetrated against a minority group?

[Bọrọkini Rogers 🇳🇬 @Femi_OfMainland]

Since when we agreed it was fine to push an idea of Christian genocide in Nigeria.

Because, except government backed, genocide is perpetrated against only a minority group.

[Mr Ohiorhenuan @OKristopha]

@Jlsesugh EL BATo sounds more appropriate.

@Ibnwalee @gone_gyal Many congratulations SC.

Lol, not everyone will get into GTs. I got into GT on my second try and I know people who tried multiple times and didn’t get in. And there is the age factor also.

GTs can’t be alternatives to poor treatment of Lawyers. We need our system to be fixed.

[Mr Ohiorhenuan @OKristopha]

It will favour me and my family.

Nijerya, İslam İşbirliği Teşkilatı ve D-8 bünyesinde Filistin başta olmak üzere İslam dünyasını ilgilendiren birçok konuda yakın iş birliği halinde olduğumuz stratejik önemde bir ülkedir. 🇹🇷🇳🇬

[Mr Ohiorhenuan @OKristopha]

With utmost due respect, you are mad.

[Dr Penking™ @drpenking]

When would we stop deceiving ourselves ?

$50,000 per month.

❌ No World Cup qualification.
❌ CHAN group-stage exit.
❌ AFCON semi-final elimination.

All this with a squad that includes two of Africa’s best players.

Yet, a coach with no major trophies continues to be preferred over proven local coaches — simply because he is foreign.

For context, Finidi George in his short stint with the SE earned 14% of what Chelle collects.

Listen, I know our country is corrupt but if this brother who currently has one of the most brazen case of corruption with the Financial Crimes Commission is allowed to run for office then let’s just give up and go home

[Mr. Possible @Mrpossidez]

My brother @iamharrycarter_ came to pay me a visit in New York and followed me to the office. He made footages the whole time and ended up with this product and my voice over. Loved every bit of it; the journey changes you.
