Counsel, @egi_nupe My understanding is that your view is likely anchored on the provision of Section 1(1)(c) of the Violence Against Persons (Prohibition) Act, 2015, which states that a person commits the offence of rape where the purported consent is obtained through false or fraudulent representation.

The false or fraudulent representation contemplated under that provision must be understood within the context of “the nature of the act.” In other words, it constitutes rape only where the consent was obtained through false or fraudulent representation “as to the nature of the act itself”.

The expression “false or fraudulent representation as to the nature of the act” used in Section 1(1)(c) of the Violence Against Persons (Prohibition) Act, 2015 does not refer to a situation where a person agrees to pay a prostitute for sex and later refuses to pay. A refusal to pay or a false promise of payment does not amount to a false representation as to the nature of the act, because both parties clearly understood that the act being consented to was sexual intercourse. The deceit in that situation relates to a collateral matter, that is payment and not to the nature of the act itself.

The phrase “as to the nature of the act” has a much narrower and more specific meaning. It refers to cases where a person is deceived about what the act truly is, such that they do not realise they are engaging in a sexual act. In other words, it covers situations where the supposed consent is obtained through deceit as to the character of the act itself, not the terms surrounding it.

For example, if someone is made to believe that the act being performed on them is a medical procedure or some other non-sexual act, when in fact it is sexual intercourse, the consent in that circumstance would be invalid. The person was deceived about what was being done to them (the very nature of the act) and not about any side condition such as payment or relationship status.

Under Nigerian law, the failure to pay a prostitute after consensual intercourse, while morally objectionable and possibly amounting to another form of wrongdoing, does not amount to the offence of rape.

Dear colleagues representing banks during garnishee proceedings, please note this for the umpteenth time:

A garnishee is not permitted to transform the garnishee process into a forum for substantive litigation, nor is it permitted to act as counsel for the judgment debtor by seeking to shield the debtor’s assets.

Please, stop stressing judgment creditors 🌚

[Historic Vids @historyinmemes]

In 1863, Jacob Miller, a Union Army soldier from the 9th Indiana Infantry, miraculously survived being shot in the head during the Civil War. He participated in several battles, including Greenbriar in West Virginia, the siege of Corinth, Perryville in Kentucky, and Stones River. Despite being declared dead by his captain, Miller regained consciousness after the battle of Chickamauga and described his experience to a newspaper in 1911.

Miller vividly remembered the moment when a Confederate soldier aimed at him, pulled the trigger, and the musket ball struck his forehead between his eyes. Initially believed to have suffered a fatal wound, Miller surprised everyone by sitting up and assessing the damage. He discovered that his left eye had been dislodged from its socket, and he carefully maneuvered the crushed bone to realign it. Using his bandana as a makeshift bandage, he did his best to secure the injured eye.

Despite the severity of his condition, Miller displayed remarkable resilience. He crawled amidst the lifeless bodies and embarked on a grueling 15-mile journey to reach a field hospital. Along the way, he encountered a compassionate man on horseback who offered him a ride. At the hospital, doctors opted to remove only a third of the musket ball, fearing that a complete extraction would prove fatal. Although the remaining portion eventually fell out naturally over time, Miller's wound never fully healed.

Jacob Miller lived a long life, defying the odds stacked against him. He passed away in 1917 at the age of 88, leaving behind a captivating photograph taken in 1911, which serves as a testament to his incredible story.
