A Retired Justice of the Federal High Court, Justice Taiwo Taiwo, has accused the Legal Practitioners Disciplinary Committee (LPDC) and the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) of not treating petitions against senior and powerful lawyers. He spoke exclusively during the weekend to newsmen. The retired judge also said the issue of conflicting judgements is because of a lack of synergy and communication among judges. “I believe that there should be a situation where judgements are circulated all over,” he said. “The LPDC, that committee is not working the way it should work when it comes to things like that. “We have seen cases involving very senior lawyers and petitions are written, the thing will not see the light of the day. The NBA must rise up to this occasion to make sure that lawyers, no matter who, the heavens will not fall. Let us open the backside of the ostrich or the turkey and let people see what A or B are doing. If it’s a disservice to the legal profession, the NBA must say som...

Jimmy Carter's Heroic Intervention: How He Saved Olusegun Obasanjo from Abacha's Detention


By Izon Daily 


Former Nigerian President Olusegun Obasanjo has revealed the remarkable story of how Jimmy Carter, the late former US President, intervened to save his life during his detention under General Sanni Abacha's regime. Obasanjo paid tribute to Carter at a memorial service, describing him as a "titan and man of peace".


According to Obasanjo, Carter's efforts led to his transfer from detention to house arrest on his farm, which was a significant reprieve during a dark period. Carter was the only non-African leader to personally visit Abacha and advocate for Obasanjo's release. This courageous act was a testament to Carter's commitment to human rights and justice.


Obasanjo also shared how media mogul Ted Turner, inspired by Carter's advocacy, offered to support him and his family if they relocated abroad. This generous offer was a result of Carter's influence and compassion, which had a profound impact on Obasanjo's life ¹.


Carter's legacy as a champion of human rights and democracy is evident in his heroic intervention in Obasanjo's case. His selfless efforts continue to inspire leaders and individuals around the world.

  SSANU, NASU threaten strike over withheld salaries The Joint Action Committee of the Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities and the Non-Academic Staff Union of Educational and Associated Institutions have threatened to disrupt industrial peace in universities should the government fail to release the withheld salaries of members. The salaries were seized by the administration of former President Muhammadu Buhari during their strike in 2022. The unions, in a joint letter signed on Friday by the President of SSANU, Muhammed Ibrahim and General Secretary of NASU, Peters Adeyemi, questioned the rationale with which the government released four months withheld salaries to members of the Academic Staff Union of Universities but failed to release the withheld salaries of non-academic staff. The unions noted that they would no longer be able to assure the government of industrial peace in universities should the amounts owed by the government are not released. Earlier, the uni...
