Do not worry; you will look back and relish this moment.
For young lawyers who may have the opportunity to appear before the Court of Appeal or and the Supreme Court. Ensure you do the following:
1. Study your file.
2. Know when your processes were filed (and dated).
3. Know when the Record was transmitted.
Whenever you hear, "Counsel, are there Housekeeping Applications?", know that the Court is simply asking you if there are Applications (Motions) you filed to regularise your Processes before the Court.
Also note that the Justices do not expect you to know everything. They want to show you know your file and that you can reasonably present your case.
Do not be afraid. You will always learn from the Court and colleagues. I wish you well.
Enjoy the new week!❤️✨️
N10 billion in lagos life made me realize the maths that:
N10 billion is N1 million… 10,000 times.
apparently, if you spend N1 million daily, it would take more than 27 years before you finish spending N10 billion.
That is what ₦10 billion means.
OUR POLITICIANS HATE US !!!
If I get 15million naira again , forget car, i am getting this.
I go use like 10m then use 2m take rent one apartment
Use the rest the get myself up brick by brick
When we were in University, the best phones were not up to N150k. The money we use to buy phones today, are what men were using to buy cars then.
E reach our turn to be adult, everything just hard
The SC in Obasanjo v. Olugbode (2026) 15 NWLR (Pt. 2062) 273 held that in an application for leave to appeal as an interested party, no enlargement of time is required to seek leave. Consequently, a prayer seeking enlargement of time to seek leave to appeal as an interested party is incompetent and will affect the other reliefs which depend on it.
For example, the motion should seek:
(a) leave to appeal as an interested party;
(b) extension of time to seek leave to appeal;
(c) leave to appeal; and
(d) extension of time to file the Notice and Grounds of Appeal,
and NOT:
(a) enlargement of time to seek leave to appeal as an interested party;
(b) leave to appeal as an interested party;
(c) leave to appeal; and
(d) extension of time to file the Notice and Grounds of Appeal.
The distinction is that there is no prescribed period to be enlarged for seeking leave to appeal as an interested party. As such, the addition of a prayer for enlargement of time to seek leave to appeal as an interested party will affect the other prayers and consequently make the motion incompetent and liable to be refused.
I don’t understand this. You find the kidnappers’ hideout for the NYSC corps members, then tell everyone, including the kidnappers, that you know their location and are coming?
Revival nation at it again!
Lmao
He’s the active deputy governor. Even if he manages to win in February, he won’t be sworn in till May 2027. That’s still like 8 months away.
Why can’t Sanwo-Olu & him start ending road extortion as of now?? He’s just deceiving himself.
I SPEAK FOR EVERYONE WHEN I SAY WE ARE EXHAUSTED WATCHING PEOPLE WITH NOTHING AT STAKE MAKE CHOICES THAT RESHAPE MILLIONS OF LIVES, THEN WALK AWAY UNTOUCHED WHILE EVERYONE ELSE PAYS THE PRICE.
My sister’s kids complain about being bored on road trips while holding an iPad the entire time. Meanwhile, when I was their age, I’d stare out the window for six hours and get genuinely excited if we passed a cow.
Enough money to pay the bills. A body healthy enough to move. A few close friends. A family that loves you. At some point, you realize this is the richest you'll ever be.
