Cristiano Ronaldo - First 950 Career Goals:

[Alex Onyia @winexviv]

I've spent the last several months researching, travelling, and studying why countries like Singapore, Netherlands, United Kingdom, Canada and Finland built some of the world's best public education systems.

One thing became clear:

Nigeria doesn't just have an education problem. We have a school management problem.

Today, I'm releasing a white paper that proposes a new way to transform our public schools, keeping them publicly owned while introducing world-class management and accountability.

This isn't about politics.

It's about giving every Nigerian child the opportunity to attend a world-class public school.

I hope this sparks one of the most important conversations our country has had about education.

Read it. Criticise it. Improve it. Share it.

If we get education right, we change Nigeria.

I find it really weird that all my life in Church i was told that when you pray you also take actions
If you pray to pass you also have to read
If you pray to get rich you also have to work
But somehow we are told to pray for Nigeria and not hold our leaders accountable

Dear Nigerians,

THERE IS FIRE ON THE MOUNTAIN!
INEC is manipulating the Voter Register.

They are systematically deleting the Voter Registration of certain demographics. Kindly rush to their portal & check to make sure that your CVR Registration is still valid & is found.

RETWEET MASSIVELY & SPREAD THE WORD!

URGENT & PRIVATE
To: Professor Joash Amupitan (SAN),

Office of the Chairman,
Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC),
Abuja, Nigeria.

Subject: NOTICE OF LEGAL IMPLICATIONS REGARDING DENIAL OF DIGITAL ASSETS AND THE RISKS OF PERVERTING THE COURSE OF JUSTICE.

Sir,
This correspondence serves as a formal observation and a strategic warning regarding your office’s recent public denials concerning the ownership of specific social media accounts and linked financial identifiers.

While the use of defensive offenses such as threatening the arrest of citizens who point out digital footprints may offer a temporary shield in the media, it is creating a catastrophic legal liability for you as a Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN) and a public servant.

1. The Forensic Trap.
Why Denial is Not a Defense.
In the digital age, a denial of ownership is an invitation for forensic discovery. The public space has already identified links between the account in question and your personal email, phone number, and an OPay account.

A. KYC Integrity
Banking institutions like OPay operate under strict Know Your Customer (KYC) mandates. If a subpoena is issued, the disclosure of the BVN and NIN used to verify that account will provide irrefutable proof of ownership.

B. Subpoena to Tech Giants.
Should this matter reach a court of competent jurisdiction, a request for your IMEI log-in history from X (formerly Twitter) will reveal whether the account was accessed from your personal or official mobile devices.

2. Legal Consequences.
Perjury and Misleading the State.
By claiming the account is a cyber attack and prompting your office to threaten arrests, you are moving from a PR crisis into a criminal territory.

A. Giving False Information.
Under Nigerian law, using the machinery of the State (the Police) to investigate a crime you know to be a fabrication is a punishable offense.

B. Perjury.
If these denials are eventually sworn to in an affidavit or presented as testimony in any election tribunal or civil suit, the resulting conviction for perjury would mean the automatic loss of your license as a SAN and your permanent disqualification from public office.

3. International Litigation & The ECOWAS Court.
While you may feel shielded by local judicial dynamics, international courts operate beyond the reach of executive interference.

A. The ECOWAS Court.
This body has consistently ruled against the use of state power to harass citizens over digital expressions. A suit filed here would not just target you, but would expose the Nigerian State to international embarrassment and hefty fines, for which you would be held personally and professionally responsible.

B. International Reputational Blacklisting.
As a law professor, you are aware that global legal bodies and monitoring groups track such controversies. This saga threatens to turn a storied academic career into a textbook example of digital-era integrity failure.

4. Recommendation for Damage Control.
By continuing this path of aggressive denial, you are destroying the very integrity you seek to protect. The threat to arrest citizens is perceived globally as an admission of guilt through intimidation.

We strongly advise a pivot toward transparency. The digital footprints are already in the public domain; no amount of local police interference can erase the data held on servers in San Francisco or the cloud-based ledgers of OPay.

The path you are on leads to removal from office, criminal conviction, and a permanent stain on your legal legacy. Be so guided.

Your best option is to resign now.

Comrade, IG Wala.

OUR LAWS AND DEMOCRACY MUST BE PROTECTED AT ALL TIMES

The Nigerian Bar Association @NigBarAssoc has closely monitored recent political and legal developments as the nation gradually approaches the 2027 General Elections. These developments, particularly those arising from the interpretation and potential application of provisions of the Electoral Act 2026, raise serious constitutional, democratic, and rule-of-law concerns that require immediate intervention.

We particularly deprecate the disturbing involvement by lawyers and courts in the internal affairs of political parties despite the clear provisions of the Electoral Act, 2026, which stipulates in Section 83 of the Act that “No court in Nigeria shall entertain jurisdiction over any suit or matter pertaining to the internal affairs of a political party.”

Not only are courts denied jurisdiction to entertain any matter pertaining to the internal affairs of a political party, but they are also precluded from granting any interim or interlocutory injunction even where any action has been brought in violation of the Act. The section further provides that “Where such an action is brought in negation of this provision, no interim or interlocutory injunction shall be entertained by the Court, but the Court shall suspend its ruling and deliver it at the stage of final judgment and shall give accelerated hearing to the matter”.

What we now see are situations where actions are not only instituted in Courts by lawyers in clear violation of the Act, but Courts purportedly grant interim and/or interlocutory injunctions in clear contempt of statutory provisions of the law. This does not augur well for our democracy. Democracy will not thrive in a situation where lawyers and courts take actions and decisions that not only negate our laws but also do violence to them. This emerging trend of subverting the clear letters of the Electoral Act and dragging courts into the internal affairs of political parties through disingenuous litigation, forum shopping, and malafide applications designed to secure undemocratic political advantage, bodes no good for our democracy. Such practices, if not immediately curbed, would directly contradict the clear intendment of the Electoral Act and risk transforming the judicial processes into avenues for political score-settling or electoral manipulation.

We must reiterate that these provisions were clearly designed to curb abuse of court processes and discourage forum shopping in political disputes. This is therefore why the NBA is concerned that the abuse, misapplication, or selective deployment of these provisions may create opportunities for manipulation capable of undermining democratic competition and shrinking the political space.

Members of the Bar are reminded that they are Ministers in the Temple of Justice and not political agents seeking judicial endorsement of partisan objectives. The filing of actions intended to draw courts into internal political party disputes, particularly where jurisdiction is expressly excluded, constitutes an abuse of court process and a violation of professional responsibility.

The NBA will take firm steps to deter such conduct. Lawyers who deliberately file actions aimed at procuring judicial interference in intra-party affairs, or who seek ex parte or interlocutory orders in clear violation of statutory provisions, risk facing disciplinary proceedings. We will not hesitate to present petitions before the Legal Practitioners Disciplinary Committee (LPDC) against any Legal Practitioner found to be engaging in such conduct. This will be pursued decisively to serve as a deterrent and to preserve the sanctity of the judicial process.

The Nigerian judiciary must stay vigilant and resist being drawn into political theatrics. Courts should firmly decline invitations, no matter how artfully crafted, to intervene in matters the law explicitly bars them from.

@DrJoeAbah An Economist understands human nature too, why are they not referred to as learned?

[Alex Onyia @winexviv]

So this is how we are thinking of redesigning the Igbo apprenticeship program “Igba boy”.

For the pilot program, we will likely take in 200 persons to engage in the training on global quality carpentry, bricklaying, tilling, plumbing, HVAC, POP and electricals.

The trainees will engage in an intensive 1 year program which they will be housed and fed. No holidays during the program. An additional 3 months will be on business and commercialization.

Once they complete the cohort and they meet the standards set, they will be settled with a good amount of money to build on the business arm of their skills. Those who don’t meet up will be dropped off from the program.

We will be visiting training centers in Togo and Germany in the coming weeks to solidify our plans and training partnerships.

Let’s brainstorm… what do you think?
