  By Pelumi Olajengbesi, Esq. In my professional experience as a legal practitioner, God has helped me to help over 34 people dissolve their marriages. Some proceedings were so acrimonious that they resembled battlefields, while some concluded amicably and with mutual respect. Although matrimonial cases are not my core area of legal practice, overseeing a large firm with a diverse practice areas naturally brings such matters to my engagement. Just as we are closing for the year, a lady referred to me from a very close friend, visited my office seeking my legal service to terminate her marriage. Her demeanor was one of profound emotional exhaustion, and as she recounted her harrowing experiences, tears streamed down her face. Her narrative was heartrending, revealing the depths of her anguish. It was unmistakable that this dissolution would be fraught with toxicity and intense contention. She has obviously been in bed with the devil himself, not because of her story alone, but the s...

  The essence of leadership within the National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) is to represent the collective interests of students. Sadly, it appears that both the NANS national and zonal leaderships have lost sight of this sacred mandate. Their recent actions or lack thereof have not only sidelined the students they claim to serve but have also cast a shadow of doubt on the credibility of the association. The case of the Osun State Joint Campus Committee (JCC) is a glaring example of this betrayal. After a fair and transparent decision made by the majority of institutions, the leadership of Solomon Ayobami Abel was collectively endorsed by the students. This decision reflected the trust and confidence reposed in him by a wide spectrum of stakeholders. However, certain individuals within the NANS structure are working tirelessly to overturn this popular mandate, thereby undermining the sanctity of the association and its democratic processes. What makes this situation eve...

  By Pelumi Olajengbesi , Esq. That a single individual—a public officer entrusted with fiduciary responsibilities—could engage in such egregious financial misconduct in a country where millions still grapple with abject poverty is both astounding and unacceptable. This is, indeed, a case of unimaginable recklessness that underscores the urgent need for unwavering vigilance in the fight against corruption. The landmark ruling of the Federal Capital Territory High Court affirming the final forfeiture of a sprawling 150,500 square-meter estate, comprising 753 duplexes and apartments in Abuja’s Lokogoma District, marks a watershed moment in Nigeria’s ongoing battle against corruption. This unprecedented recovery—being the largest ever achieved by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) since its establishment in 2003—epitomizes the Commission’s unwavering resolve to combat economic and financial crimes. The judgment, meticulously delivered by the distinguished Justice Jude...
