Are We at a Judicial Crossroads with the Decisions of Justices Umar and Omotosho on INEC’s Electoral Guidelines?

Ochili Michael
The two decisions of the Federal High Court delivered respectively by Justice Mohammed G. Umar and Justice James Kolawole Omotosho are already generating intense constitutional and electoral discourse within legal circles. Both judgments dealt with the legality of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC)’s administrative timetable and guidelines issued for the 2027 general elections vis-à-vis the provisions of the Electoral Act 2026. Although both courts addressed substantially similar legal questions, they arrived at partially convergent and partially divergent conclusions. This has now sparked debate among senior members of the Bar on whether Justice Omotosho ought to be reprimanded for allegedly delivering a judgment inconsistent with that of Justice Umar. This article examines the two judgments, identifies their points of agreement and disagreement, and evaluates whether the controversy over judicial contradiction is legally sustainable or merely academic se...

Fruitfulness In All Season

Ochili Michael
Fruitfulness in season and out of season. Fruitfulness means being completely productive. In from the Christianity perception,  the word Fruitfulness; means living a righteous life and bearing Godly fruits. Bearing fruit alone can be positive or negative ie good or bad fruit depending on the nature of life one lives.

The Code of Conduct Tribunal, the High Courts of States, the Federal High Court, the National Industrial Court, the Court of Appeal and the Supreme Court were all specifically created by the relevant dections of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999 (as Amended).

Arbitration Agreement,jurisdiction and its enforcing nature

Ochili Michael
Arbitration Agreement,jurisdiction and its  enforcing nature. INTRODUCTION Over the years, contractual agreements now contemplate disputes between parties, hence dispute resolution clauses are couched into such agreement. However in carrying out this term of contractual agreement, arbitration amongst other non-adversarial Alternative Dispute Resolution has taken the lead. Also despite the avalanche of arbitration agreement clauses in agreements, the issue of challenge of jurisdiction of the arbitrator(s) remains a recurring dispute for determination in the Nigerian courts. For instance, if the arbitrators sought to resolve an issue beyond their competence, they could be restrained from doing so by the courts on the plea of any of the parties. The question of jurisdiction is typically a preliminary matter for the court to determine. This means whether it is valid and whether the matter lies within the scope of the arbitration agreement. Or whether as a matter of construction of...
