@itaisher This should not even be in question.
The only way you can have a period inside a quotation, is if it ends with one. And, matter of factly, it does not take the role of the period expected to be after the quotation, if the quotation ends the sentence. THIS IS COMMON KNOWLEDGE.
@Heis_Mentor@Sly_Orkuma@tukz0a@sirjay2305 You're arguing beautifully. But, it would have been more beautiful if you were correct. Simply put, the word 'draw' is alien to a knockout match. It's a game where a winner must come out. And you cannot achieve that, if you can have a draw.
Are there people actually buying properties from some of these real estates?
You read some offer letters or estate terms or whatever sometimes and you're provoked to contempt.
Clauses and terms that are directly against settled constitutional provisions and case law.
"If a subscriber intends to get a refund, 20% administrative fee shall be deducted, but he shall he entitled to a full refund where the estate initiates the refund".
"Xyz may revoke your title or interest in the property without notice if you breach any estate rule"
"You agree to be bound by all rules and regulations that the management may come up with for the smooth running of the estate"
A client was given an offer for a piece of land early 2025. When we reviewed the offer and did a detailed letter to the real estate firm on why some clauses cannot stand, they couldn't reply on the substance. They only replied that they were no longer selling to our client and that our letter to them was defamatory.
If real estate companies are bent on killing people because they (people) want to own their own houses, we (lawyers) will also not get our knees off the necks of real estate firms o.
Federal Government has called for a fundamental overhaul of Nigeria’s transportation system, with greater integration of road, rail, waterways, ports, and other modes to reduce logistics costs and unlock the country’s economic potential.

The Federal Government has introduced a new interest regime for late tax payments, linking the cost of delayed payments more closely to prevailing market rates and tightening the financial consequences for taxpayers who delay paying public revenue.

The SC in Noble Drilling (Nig.) Ltd. v. NIMASA (2026) 14 NWLR, held that the requirement under sections 97 and 98 of the Sheriffs and Civil Process Act for leave and endorsement of processes for service outside jurisdiction applies to the High Court of a State and the High Court of the FCT, but not to the Federal High Court. This is because the Federal High Court has nationwide territorial jurisdiction; its judicial divisions are merely administrative. Therefore, for purposes of the Federal High Court, a process served anywhere within Nigeria is served within jurisdiction and no leave is required. It is only when the process is to be served outside Nigeria that it is served outside the jurisdiction of the Federal High Court. Consequently, the earlier decision of the SC in Arabella v. N.A.I.C. (2008) 11 NWLR, which held otherwise, was held to be per incuriam and has been overruled to that extent.
Dream On, Football.
I still dream of playing football.
That might surprise you, coming from someone who plays it for a living.
But it’s true.
I still dream of playing with my friends.
Playing until sunset. Until dinner.
Playing just because it was a game, long before it could become a career.
I have followed this dream for as long as I can remember.
Once again it has led me to one of the biggest changes in my life.
Now, I find myself surrounded by innovators who dream of the same things I do.
Of bringing foot as close as possible to ball.
Of bringing the people as close as possible to the game.
Of bringing the world as close as possible to play.
I guess that’s the thing about dreams that refuse to change.
They’re usually the ones that change everything.
Dream On.
Nigerians have the legal right, unmistakably, to record not just the police but law enforcement officers generally while they discharge their statutory responsibilities.
