I’ve started appreciating days where nothing dramatic happens. no bad news, no stressful interactions, no overwhelming thoughts. just a normal, quiet day where everything is calm. those are the days that actually feel like rest.
Bola Ahmed Tinubu-led administration, posterity will bear witness that while several families across Nigeria placed in your care were thrown into agony, pain, and despair daily, you stood by and did nothing.
You cannot rehabilitate a person that beheads a person.
You cannot rehabilitate someone that offs people for sport.
You cannot rehabilitate someone that kidnaps and rapes children.
My favorite topic in law school was charges, mehn—across all courses.
Which year of past questions on charges did I not draft? 2010–2025. I loved that topic and drafted it a lot because it was very tricky.
There was a snap test we did in Lagos. Almost everyone chose manslaughter, but I stood my ground on murder—and I was correct.
In charges, you should know the difference between robbery, armed robbery, and stealing.
Also know when it is murder or manslaughter. Know the definitions.
Also know who a principal offender is—Sections 7 & 8 of the Criminal Code.
Also know that you don’t charge with the definition section—you charge with the punishment section.
Also know when a transaction has started and when they have ended it and gone their separate ways.
Know that two people cannot be charged for rape on the same count—it’s always different counts.
You can’t charge a dead man or someone who has not been arrested.
You should know how to charge outside jurisdiction.
Know the principle behind conspiracy.
Know when to draft another charge sheet.
A lot of things to learn in charges, mehn.
You mean “Goodbye” came from the word “God Be With You” ?!
So “goodbye” is a contraction from the 16th century phrase “God be with ye” and was says so often till it became “Good-b’wye” then “goodbwye “ then finally “goodbye”.
My Christian mind… Blown.
