Legal Practitioner & Human Rights Activist

The duties of the legislature is to control the Executive. Despite court judgements against governors for various constitutional breaches the legislatures in many states had be cowed to remain silent and bury their heads in the ground for fear of the reaction of their governors. Many of the legislators share their salaries and allowance or run away from their homes and offices as they cannot co-op with the gifts to poor condtituients who had not been paid their salaries, benefits and pension and gratuity. They legislate poverty and pass every bill whole sale. This is not democracy. Where in a society the legislature is deprived the power to speak is no democracy. It is pure return to military rule where the legislature is completely absent and fussed in the executive arm. Where the governors use state budgets to keep the legislature quit is unacceptable. He who pays the Piper decorate the music to be played. What is the way out of these problems? Is constitutional provision for autonomy? The judiciary had such provisions yet, it is abused every day. The fight for actual enforcement of the constitutional autonomy for state Judiciary had begun in Kogi State and many other state. Let our governors allow such independence as they like Okorocha may need the services of the same Judiciary they are fighting to extenguish. Late Governor Audu of blessed memory won majority his political battle in court. I pray that the governors learn from history and restore peace in their states. As a governor your tenure will come to an end one day and your last hope will certainly be the Judiciary. It is a temple please keep it holy.

Why is political right to vote and be voted for not a undamental right in the FRN constitution 1999 as amended?

We must as a nation strengthen our laws to make them more effective we need independent prosecutors to handle EFCC and other economic crimes far removed from politics.

I apologise for long absence. Human rights as we have seen are rights that keeps us human and basic to our existence. In ranking of fundamental rights first and foremost is right to life. Once the right to life is lost all other rights have no meaning. Do we have the right to terminate our life since it is our right and thus our property?

The answer is under normal circumstances no. If you attempt to take your life and you fail you will be charged for attempted su***de and punished according to the law.

Where a person is vegetable and is on life support he may by any sign indicate that he want to be disconnected to die. That is right to die.

The right to life can be denied by ex*****on of sentence of a court of law. Human rights activists view this as unnecessary law death penalty should be abolished as it violent human kind.
It can also be denied where law enforcement agencies are allow to use reasonable force to suppress riot or prevent crime or kill absconding suspect. Join to say no to DEATH PENALTY.
