The love I have for Messi is immeasurable and inexplicable. Not just his football, his lifestyle inspires me. No much talk, just results and God.

[Remiee @remiexxy]

I’ll never forget how I felt when that Messi goal entered against Egypt to make it 2-2

That was the loudest noise I made for a goal this year, the dopamine rush was crazyyy.

@ConcernCittizen @6uff_ @Adikastakes You’re just farming engagement.

[Uzzy @Emperor_uzzy]

@ConcernCittizen @6uff_ @Adikastakes Spanish mahrez indeed. But it’s imperative to give your takes on football without sentiment and hatred. The magic Yamal brings to the game at his age supersedes him being called “Spanish Mahrez”. What a ragebait.

Misapprehending a write up that contains dashes for AI content is a huge misconception.

[Abduljalal Musa Aliyu @AbduljalaalMusa]

Wole Soyinka wrote an open letter today, with tens of em dashes.

Because Baba knows that dem no born you well to use the word ‘AI’ in the same sentence as his name.

As a student judge, I was faced with an erroneous similar application. However, the counsel was my senior so I couldn’t give him the proper admonition(roasting).

Using a laptop with a touchscreen is enough indication that you’re not really serious with your life.

[Uzzy @Emperor_uzzy]

Whatever they name it. it should just favor me.

What some people call nepotism and favouritism is what some people call networking and connection.

[Uzzy @Emperor_uzzy]

There might not be. But there could be an instance there is no literature of your research topic relating to your jurisdiction or where expressly used. Encountered this when I wrote on effect asymmetrical jurisdictional clauses in international commercial arbitration.

[BUKOLA @WithBukky]

Can a research topic have no existing literature?

[Uzzy @Emperor_uzzy]

Emphasis on “purely economic”.

[Maruf Muhammed Esq @MarufMuhammed4]

"A lawyer's relationship with his clients should be purely economic. So long as you do not charge your fees and you keep on working for a client, or you do not collect your money in advance as provided by our rules, clients will praise you. Any fees not paid before the conclusion of a case may never be paid again, nor would the clients come back.

"Many clients never returned to me after I had concluded their cases. While their cases were still on, they would give the best of Christmas presents. May be one or two years after the end of a case they might remember you. My experience is that ninety percent of all my Christmas presents come from those whose cases are still pending.

"It is worse when they have not paid your fees. They promise heaven and earth. They assure you of prompt payment once the case is completed. But once this is achieved, you would never see them again.

"One bizarre thing is that rich clients are the worst culprits when it comes to payment of fees. They simply do not appreciate a lawyer's work. They find it difficult and are always reluctant to pay adequately for the services of lawyers. I have had to return files to some rich clients because of their failure to pay what was reasonable, proper and compensatory. When you turn over their files to them for failure to pay, they run to another lawyer where they do exactly the same thing.

"In Europe, a lawyer's bill after the completion of a case is paid without questions. But here, the rich people would rather pay money to the police or to people who will promise to influence a judge".

[Uzzy @Emperor_uzzy]

Read from A-Z. Just skip the editor’s note—it’s more better that way.

[Abdulrokeeb Abdullahi @Ayoze000]

Learned seniors, please what is the best method of reading law reports without getting overwhelmed?

Or it is imperative I read from A-Z?

[Uzzy @Emperor_uzzy]

Educative 👏

[Aspiring Billionaire SAN⚖️ @UsmanAbidemiEsq]

In UGBAH v. UGBAH (2026) 4 NWLR (Pt. 2035), the Supreme Court held that a woman can file a standalone action for maintenance for herself and that of her children without necessarily suing for divorce or nullity of the marriage.

The Court held that a woman is entitled to maintenance upon her marriage to a man, regardless of the type of marriage, whether Islamic, Customary, or Statutory. The right to maintenance of both the wife and children can be enforced if a man willfully neglects to maintain them.

In this case, the respondent, as the defendant at the trial court, challenged the appellant, as the plaintiff, for filing an action for maintenance by way of writ of summons. They contended that the appellant ought to have commenced the action under the Matrimonial Causes Act by way of a petition for divorce and then included prayers for maintenance in the divorce petition. The trial court dismissed the Preliminary Objection. Upon appeal to the Court of Appeal, the appeal was allowed, and the Court of Appeal held that the action ought to have been commenced by way of a petition.

Being dissatisfied, the Appellant appealed further to the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court finally settled this issue and held that a woman need not file for divorce before seeking maintenance for herself and her children. A woman may not want to be divorced “legally” and may simply want to claim maintenance. Therefore, arguing that a woman must first file a petition and then include maintenance as a relief is a way of forcing women to divorce their husbands before they can obtain maintenance.

As it stands now, the law is now settled that a woman does not have to divorce her husband before she can seek maintenance for herself and her children. She can remain married, live apart from her husband and still enforce her right and that of her children to maintenance in court.

Thank you.
