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...

Ochili Michael
Common Problems in Marriage: A Review of the Book of Sirach Marriage is a sacred institution ordained by God, but it is not immune to challenges. Domestic violence, spouse abuse, and other issues can strain a marriage, causing emotional and physical harm to one or both partners. In this article, we will explore these common problems in marriage and examine the teachings of the Book of Sirach on how a Christian marriage should be nurtured. Domestic Violence and Spouse Abuse Domestic violence and spouse abuse are never acceptable in any marriage.
