In his sermon titled, A Tough and Tender Heart, Martin Luther King Jr., wrote, “the strong man holds in a living blend strongly marked opposites. The idealists are not usually realistic, and the realists are not usually idealistic… but life at its best is a creative synthesis of opposites in a fruitful harmony.” Dr. Martin should know, he was a blend of strongly marked opposites.
The laziness of the allegations against Tompolo border on what the Americans would refer to as asininity. Take the allegations by several editorial boards of newspapers including The Guardian Newspapers repeating the canards that Tompolo earlier stole from the government because he was wrongly charged with crimes he did not commit and was cleared by the courts, and there are no appeals against the judgments.
As is customary with Tompolo, he moved with zeal. A deal was struck with NIMASA to provide it with 12 military grade vessels for high sea patrol and maritime domain awareness on the basis of no cure no pay. Investments in excess of $60 million was made and the process began to pay off. What did we hear? Why is Government paying Tompolo so much money? Next thing, the contract was technically suspended with the imposition of criminal charges, itself a violation of the terms of the contract.

Reforming the rank of senior advocates | The Guardian Nigeria News - Nigeria and World NewsI have read many comments on this topic highlighting different opinions on the reformation of the Rank of Senior Advocates of Nigeria. The goal of this exercise was originally to commend the Legal Practitioners Privileges Committee... Festus Keyamo ? Can the review the list again… They mistakenly awarded one man the SAN tag. I quite agree with the argument and submission of the learned person. An honorary causa award should be created to honour the legal academics and separate from the rank of the Senior Advocate of Nigeria, SAN. I so submit too. Classroom is different from the courtroom. Thank you.
