The correct mode of addressing female judges, By Eyimofe Atake, SAN](https://dailyquery.com.ng/my-lord-or-my-lady-the-correct-mode-of-addressing-female-judges-by-eyimofe-atake-san/): My view is straightforward: a female Judge should be addressed as My Lady or Your Ladyship, and a male Judge as My Lord or Your Lordship. That is not a concession to fashion. It is correct usage, good English, and the solution long ago adopted by the English, custodians of the tradition we inherited. 1. Where Did “We Are All Gentlemen at the Bar” Come From? The contrary school rests on the old saying that there are no ladies at the Bar, that we are all gentlemen; it is, in all likelihood, the true basis on which some female Judges

They are his beginning and they are about to be his end. They are like the stubborn flies that are lowered along with the casket. If Khalifa Atiku Abubakar’s life has run like a fairytale, the political aspect of the last four decades or so, has been an Arabian serenade. The boy from rustic Jada, around the Adamawa-Cameroon borders, providence must have made him for the sole purpose of leading his people. Imbued with innate qualities from the onset, he has continued to direct the affairs of his people at every

History explains much. It excuses very little. This is not a comfortable sentence to open an essay with, and it is not meant to be. It is meant to name, plainly, a habit of mind that has quietly hardened into orthodoxy across much of the African intellectual and political landscape: the conviction that the continent’s present condition is best understood, and perhaps only understood, as the residue of what was done to it. Africa’s greatest obstacle today may

It was here that something dramatic happened, just as the soldiers conferred on what to do next. Bello pushed Nwankwo with the plea that he made a dash for it.

Nigeria’s 2026 Appropriation Act is a confession, written in the language of line items, signed into law by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, and countersigned by a National Assembly that has abandoned oversight for the far more lucrative business of insertion.

The facts surrounding the 2026 national budget of Nigeria fall squarely under the latter categorisation. If conducts in public offices in Nigeria were regulated by ethics of service and decency, there would be dire consequences for the gross misdeed that accompanied what is called Nigeria’s 2026 annual budget. Atiku Abubakar, former vice president and presidential candidate of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) only added his voice to the malfeasance in the 2026 budget when he raised series of issues about certain provisions in the

It is the line between what a war was designed to achieve and what it is actually producing. Somewhere past the fifth month of fighting, that line usually becomes visible even to the people who least want to see it. In the case of Iran, America and Israel, we may be approaching exactly that point, and the world has not yet reckoned with what sits on the
