THE READER’S PAVILION
FAKE
LAWYER
The
Editor,
When you published the
story of the fake lady lawyer who became the Treasurer of NBA Ibadan Branch, I
witnessed how an Ibadan lawyer, a lady literally cursed you for doing the
story, she was so bitter. According to her you are an “Oloriburuku” (an accursed,
ill-fortuned person) who is interested in destroying the fake lawyer further.
Happily there was this other lawyer, a male, who expressed his support for the
publication saying such exposure of quacks in the legal profession can only be
for the good of the profession.
According to your
critic, you in publishing the story, forgot that God forgives sinners and
gives them second chances to make amends.
Editor’s
Note:
Well, since I am a gecko and not an “Oloriburuku” I feel rather amused.
God bless my critic.

The
Editor,
Gateway to what?
Nice write- up (Learned Squib article Vol. 13 No.2) isn’t it a shame that with
all the perks, emoluments, cars and what have you, most of our judges fail to
perform? What is performance? Simple, sit at 9.00 am on the dot and do the work
you are paid to do. Stop waffling on the Bench and please stop making excuses
about pending ruling and NJC returns, it comes with the job and you applied for
it. Once again thank you for saying it like it is.
Editor’s
Note-:
May the Lord bless our words in their ears!
GATEWAY
TO WHAT?
The
Editor,
Oga mi, Gateway To What? It’s another master-piece
from you I really enjoyed the article. Imagine some of your coinages:
“State
Counselship” “Rat na Rat”
Silk
banza, LWKMD
However the issue of all these goodies in
contradistinction to the quantum of indolence and levity across the Lagos State
Judiciary firmament is an irony of epic proportions
Editor’s
Note-:
Quite!
GATEWAY
TO WHAT?
The
Editor,
I took a copy of that
edition of Squib which featured the story of the fake lady lawyer on the cover
to Ado Ekiti. A person read the story and was so moved by your Learned Squib
article on Justice Gbaja-biamila that the person asked me to contact you so that
he or she could make a voluntary donation to your magazine. The person wishes
to be anonymous.
Editor’s
Note-: We appreciate the kind offer but we will accept it
only on the condition that the anonymous donor would not one day send you to ask
us to moderate our views or stop a particular enquiry or publication.
