AGF lacks the power to order postponement of NBA elections.

The Nigerian Bar Association is a professional association registered under the relevant laws and the Bola Tinubu regime cannot make blanket directions towards the postponement of the election.

We will resist!

[AFAM OSIGWE @afamosigwe]

ONLY THE NATIONAL EXECUTIVE COUNCIL OF THE NBA CAN DIRECT THE POSTPONEMENT OF THE 2026 NBA NATIONAL OFFICERS’ ELECTION

Our attention has been drawn to a document which purports to be a Report of a Sub-Committee and the comments of the Honourable Attorney General which, amongst other things allegedly ordered:

(a) the disbandment of the Electoral Committee of the Nigerian Bar Association and postponement of the election of National Officers,

(b) the termination of the appointment of the current service provider because he is a sole proprietor and the appointment of a new service provider,

(c) the setting up of a caretaker committee to conduct the elections of national officers,

(d) the incorporation of NIN in the data of voters in the conduct of the NBA Election.

(e) the “recalibration” of the NBA Constitution to take away universal suffrage etc.

The Nigerian Bar Association believes that the Honourable Attorney General of the Federation could not issue the said directive as it is entirely unconstitutional, ultra vires the powers of the Honourable Attorney General of the Federation, and an attempt to bring the Nigerian Bar Association under the control of the office of the Honourable Attorney General.

For the record, the Nigerian Bar Association is an independent body not under the control of the Honourable Attorney General of the Federation. By the provisions of section 10(2) of the Legal Practitioners Act, the only time a body distinct from the Nigerian Bar Association is empowered to interfere in the activities of the Nigerian Bar Association is stated clearly therein and none of the events have occurred as to entitle the Honourable Attorney General to take the position stated in the purported directive.

We are strengthened in our belief that the Honourable Attorney General could not have given the purported directives when in fact the purported directives are no different from the reliefs sought in the two Egbe Amofin Cases pending at the High Court of Oyo State. Indeed, the Honourable Attorney General cannot grant reliefs sought in the two Egbe Amofin suits in his capacity as a convener of a mediation meeting or even as the Chief Law Officer of the Federation. The Honourable Attorney General is at best a party/mediator, and it is settled that a mediator does not give directives to the parties in a matter in which he is a party.

All Past Presidents of the Nigerian Bar Association in attendance, to the exclusion of Chief Wole Olanipekun, were of the view that the cases initiated by Egbe Amofin are frivolous and should be withdrawn. It was therefore the decision of the attendees of the meeting that the Sub-Committee set up is to ONLY liaise with the contending parties for the purpose of overseeing the withdrawal of the actions. The Sub-Committee was never empowered to make any inquest as to the conduct of the President of the Nigerian Bar Association to the extent of making far-reaching condemnations against him when he is not a candidate in the election. Their reliance on the memos submitted by some candidates as the basis for those findings violates the constitutional safeguard of fair hearing as the President was never served with those memos to enable him make a response before such condemnations were made, assuming he was a necessary person to appear before the Sub-Committee.

The resolution of the meeting of 11 June 2026 is that the Sub-Committee is to report to the entire body at a reconvened meeting. From the face of the purported report, it is clear that none of those who attended the 11 June 2026 meeting were availed a copy of the purported report or made any input to it. Assuming without conceding that they have received the report, the meeting cannot give the directions as it violates the Legal Practitioners Act and the Nigerian Bar Association Constitution.

We will resist attempts to handover the Nigeria Bar Association to Bola Ahmed Tinubu through his AGF.

[Riri💕 @Quo_Riri]

He served in the Military hospital in Port Harcourt.

His fellow Medical Doctor officers and probably the Admin officer, refused him exit. They watched his health deteriorate and they couldn’t do the least thing as refer him to a better hospital, if they didn’t want him out of the State.

I wish he damm the exit permission and left or his parents were crazy enough to drive down from Calabar and picked him up earlier.

[Riri💕 @Quo_Riri]

No blog wants to mention that he served in a Military hospital ?

"President Tinubu is tired, he needs to go back home and rest. When he came into power, 87 million Nigerians were living in poverty. Today it's 140 million. There is insecurity everywhere. Which hope are they going to renew again? You can't renew fåilure. Kwankwaso is one politician I can tell you has the interest of Nigerians at heart."

-NDC presidential candidate, Mr. Peter Obi.

I like the fact that he’s talking now , folks think he’s having it so easy , they don’t know the demons we’re facing .

He should keep talking everytime.

"With the way this government is going, I may not even be alive to contest the 2027 election. Every single thing I do for a living, this government is deliberately frustrating. I face frustration every day. They recently locked my car at the airport."

A Wife’s Tears, A Nation’s Conscience: Let Justice Have a Heart.

I woke this morning in America and was deeply moved by an emotional viral video of Hajiya Asiya El-Rufai, prompting deep reflection on our nation’s future.

Regardless of the allegations against Mallam Nasir El-Rufai or any other citizen, justice must be transparent and fair, with reasonable bail conditions that should not be seen as punitive before trial. In a democracy governed by the rule of law, institutions exist to protect every citizen's rights, regardless of their background.

We must resist any hint of selective justice that erodes public trust and threatens national unity. Those tasked with enforcing our laws must act professionally and strictly follow due process.

Let us strive for a Nigeria where the law is paramount, and where every citizen is guaranteed dignity and justice. This is the foundation of the New Nigeria we envisage. -PO

The agency was created to siphon cash from the budget and distribute it to politicians.

You know it
I know it
The Press knows it

All this English they are blowing online is to buy time so Nigerians forget it and move on.

If the opposition parties had a shadow economic desk, they would feast on this.

This is a system-side corruption scandal.

Egypt's disallowed goal was completely against how this tournament has been refereed.

You can't have a light touch where you don't give fouls for minimal contact and then rule out a goal through VAR for a very minimal hold of the shirt.

The racist, dehumanising remarks against @KMbappe by Paraguayan Sen. Celeste Amarilla are despicable, regrettably not isolated.

States & sports organisations must prevent acts of racism & discrimination, and ensure independent and effective accountability. Social media must also prevent and address racial discrimination on their platforms.

My activities are still very limited at the moment. I have been doing some writing, however–thank God.

I'm so relieved to be once again doing something creative and useful.

I have also been watching Professor Paul Kengor's The Dark Side of Marxism from @petersonacademy.  

It does not feature the Marx portrayed by the woke university socialist acolytes (to put it mildly).

I interviewed @DrPaulKengor a year ago or so ago on my podcast. He's a truly engaging, creative and witty storyteller and lecturer.

It turns out that Old Karl was quite the satanic soul.

He was a parasite economically all his life, extorting continual support from his long-suffering relatives.

He wrote (and admired) purposefully demonic poetry and drama.

Most disturbing, however, was his choice of favorite quote. From Goethe's Faust, it's a line I have quoted many times, in consequence of its sheer existential horror.

It's Mephistopheles presenting his identity and central credo:

“I am the Spirit that endlessly denies!
And rightly, too; for all that comes to birth
Is fit for overthrow, as nothing worth;
Wherefore the world were better sterilized;
Thus all that's here as Evil recognized
Is gain to me, and downfall, ruin, sin.
The very element I prosper in.”

I wonder if Zohran Mamdani @NYCMayor knows of the inclination of his apparent intellectual hero?

[DC_Draino @DC_Draino]

People forget that Gov DeSantis beat this guy in 2018 by less than 0.5%.

He would’ve been our Governor during Covid, kept us locked down, and the country would’ve never been the same.

The reason he almost won was b/c deep blue Broward County kept “finding” votes weeks after the election.

The vote fraud was stopped, DeSantis cleaned up our elections, and he won by almost 20% in 2022.

It’s amazing what happens when election fraud is cleaned up.
