This is another form of Strategic lawsuit against public participation ( #SLAPP ) — a lawsuit or other legal harassment designed to intimidate and silence critics, in this case out-funding the author — which precludes the prosecution of defamation cases against #TheRich and the #Powerful. We need more #LawReforms to guard against this kind of miscariage of #Justice IMO.

The Nigerian Police Force: A Colonial Machine That Never Changed by Lawson Akhigbe
To understand the modern Nigerian Police Force, one must first understand its origins. The uncomfortable truth is that the institution was never created to protect ordinary Nigerians. It was established to protect the interests of those who ruled Nigeria, first the British colonial administration and later the Nigerian political elite that inherited the colonial state. -

THE CONSTITUTION, STUPID: ON TRUMP, THE SUPREME COURT, AND A QUESTION THAT NEVER NEEDED ASKING By Lawson Akhigbe
The Supreme Court’s 6–3 ruling in Trump v. Barbara successfully blocked an executive order attempting to end birthright citizenship. But the real scandal isn’t that Trump tried to delete the Fourteenth Amendment with a memo—it’s that the Court elevated this transparent stunt into an 18-month crisis by agreeing to hear it at all. You cannot amend the Constitution via an executive order or a regular congressional bill; doing so requires the grueling, historic process of Article V. Treating a foundational constitutional right as a casual negotiation opener is political vandalism from the White House, and a "romantic delusion" from a Court that gave the attack a stage. The constitutional wall stood, as it always was going to. The pity is that the judiciary treated the assault on it as a debate worth entertaining, putting the status of 255,000 children a year on trial for pure political theater. -
