Education   comprises various methods and procedures which schools and other institutions of learning adopt in teaching students. Education has developed from the informal approach to an advanced system. Education can be categorized into formal and informal, informal education are those things which individuals imbibe from their homes and society, formal education are those things thought by teachers in class rooms. Human beings have been able to evolve from an illiterate to a preliterate to a literate society with the invention of writing.   The aim of education should be to enlighten people sufficiently so as to be able to perform their civic duties and to become better persons in the society. Unfortunately the system prevalent in Nigeria is one that oppresses and intimidates those who are meant to be taught. According to the Encarta dictionary to educate means to give knowledge to or develop the abilities of somebody by teaching, or to train somebody or improve som...

Terrorism according to the Oxford Advanced Learners Dictionary is the use of violence action in order to achieve political aims or to force a government to act. It is mind blowing and soul retching to say the least, that some unimaginable things can take place on the soil of this great nation acclaimed to be the most populous African country with a rich culture, however, this has become the bane of the countries existence since its inception, as it is I am dumb founded, it would be better to say that Nigeria is a land of impossibilities. In Nigeria massive ships and heavy duty tractors have vanished into thin air, government installations are stolen by invisible forces, where more than 200 school girls can be abducted within seconds and transported to an unknown destination, where a large expanse of forest is converted into a ritual site and people a left unperturbed, still going about their daily activities needless to say campaigns as though nothing happened. The events of rec...

The law school program is quite an interesting but convoluted scheme that requires a lot of preparation and timing, as it is now, it is already sixteen days into the program and I am counting down to 170 days left before we go for court/chamber attachment actually, we have finished our registration and I will like to run through some of the processes with you, with a bit of reflex ion I will like to take us back a little, from the banks to the internet and to the various campuses where we had to complete the following steps: 1.      Change the bank receipt to that of the law school 2.      Collect and fill the bio data and the identity card forms 3.      Collect a slip with your registration number and group 4.      Go for medicals with all your test results 5.      And collect your medical card 6.      Then rush and secure your accommodation because...

THESE WERE SOME OF HIS VIEWS. Firstly, he has no regrets as far as being in the profession is concerned especially as it relates to private practice, as against working in the public sector, one of his memorable moments was his appointment by the C.J.N as a Notary public in 2008 under the Notary public Act, because it has furthered his career not just within Nigeria but the world at large. As a lawyer he enjoys freedom from circumscription. He stressed the need for upcoming lawyers to have a vibrant library stating that no lawyer can succeed today without a well equipped library. He further expressed his view that many lawyers who started buying books early have made it today because they started on the right footing. He further emphasized the need for future lawyers to be computer literate. This is because soon, filing processes in the courts can be done via the internet based on e-filing methods which he strongly believes will soon be the order of the day. More so, co...

The Nigerian constitutional amendment is quite apt, in view of the declining political, economic and social conditions characterizing the polity today. This can be traced to the improper and undemocratic method in which the constitution as we have it today in Nigeria was fashioned. These factors, among other factors have continued to bedevil and hound the existence of the Nigerian State and has continued to eat up the sovereignty of the constitution, giving rise to entities and individuals who are assuming positions that are apparently superior to the constitution and the country itself. In my view nothing should be more important in the political culture and existence of a nation than the constitution by which its citizens are governed. The Nigerian political and historical records have made us to understand that the Nigerian constitutional evolution was hijacked by the imperial government and subsequently the military government by the acclaimed supreme mi...

When we talk about the court of love we are not referring to the Family Court or the process of divorce or the probate court,like law, love is a complex concept which has continued to defy any one generally acceptable definition, and though it can not be defined accurately it is undoubtedly a powerful phenomenon which ought to be recognized, codified and guided by strict principles and policies and which like statute no one should say he has understood it until he has been properly tutored on it. The court of love deserves to be a superior court of record with unlimited jurisdiction as far as the heart is concerned; its jurisdiction covers dating, toasting, wooing, courtship, marriage and sex. Love can be said to be an emotion of a strong affection and personal attachment . Love is also said to be a virtue representing all of human kindness , compassion , and affection —"the unselfish loyal and benevolent concern for the good of another". Love may describe compassiona...
