REFUSAL TO RELEASE ODION IGHALO- ONE DISRESPECT TOO MANY?

REFUSAL TO RELEASE ODION IGHALO- ONE DISRESPECT TOO MANY? ~ Olubor Uyi ESQ. Over the years, a major bone of contention has been the appropriate period to hold the African Cup of Nations (AFCON). Most football Eggheads have demanded that the AFCON be moved from the summer to the winter. Alas!!! The last AFCON held in Egypt, took place during the summer. However, this has proved unsustainable. Owing to the unfavorable weather condition in most African countries during the European summer calendar. Hence, the Confederation of African Football (CAF) reverted to holding the AFCON during the european winter calendar after it awarded the hosting rights to Cameroun. However, this decision taken by CAF has not gone down well with most marquee clubs across the globe. As it would mean, they would have to do without some of their key players who are of African decent during the duration of the tourney. The Super Eagles of Nigeria have been a major victim of this discontent. As it has seen in the p...

THE PETROLEUM INDUSTRY ACT (PIA), A VEHICLE FOR THE REVOLUTION OF THE PETROLEUM INDUSTRY (the first series)

THE PETROLEUM INDUSTRY ACT (PIA), A VEHICLE FOR THE REVOLUTION OF THE PETROLEUM INDUSTRY (the first series)~  by Olubor Uyi Esq. For the best part of the last two decades.

The PIA aims at promoting transparency, good governance and accountability in the administration of petroleum resources in Nigeria. This is one major reason the National Assembly via the PIA decided to unbundle the Nigeria National Petroleum Commission (NNPC) into the Upstream commission which will be responsible for the governance of the upstream Operations and the Midstream and Downstream Authority who would oversee the midstr...

THE LEGAL STATUS OF INTERNATIONAL VOLUNTEERS WHO HAVE VOLUNTEERED TO COMBAT IN THE UKRAINIAN WAR - CAN THEY ENJOY THE PRIVILEGES OF PRISONERS OF WAR (POW)?

THE LEGAL STATUS OF INTERNATIONAL VOLUNTEERS WHO HAVE VOLUNTEERED TO COMBAT IN THE UKRAINIAN WAR - CAN THEY ENJOY THE PRIVILEGES OF PRISONERS OF WAR (POW)? ~ by Olubor Uyi Esq. Since the commencement of the Russian invasion in Ukraine. We have witnessed a situation where parties to the conflict have called upon volunteers across the world to enlist in their respective armed forces to participate in the ongoing war. This demand has resulted in a situation where a lot of persons across the world are volunteering to participate in the war. Just last week, it was reported that about 150 able-bodied Nigerian youths approached the Ukrainian embassy with the aim of joining the Ukrainian army in the fight against the Russians. However, this demand from the parties has awoken another age long debate whether: 1. Volunteers of this nature, can they be designated as mercenaries? 2. If we accept that, they are mercenaries. Would they be entitled to the rights and privileges as set out under the Gen...
