For the record, I never supported the 2023 High Court suit in Umuahia against Deputy Speaker Benjamin Kalu. Why? Because that case was a distraction focused solely on a change of name—a matter long settled by the courts. My principles do not allow me to join frivolous battles.

However, I have now joined the struggle for transparency regarding a far more serious statutory concern: The Impossible Overlap.
Official records currently under petition before the Legal Practitioners’ Disciplinary Committee (LPDC) and the NYSC suggest an overlap between Rt. Hon. Benjamin Kalu’s mandatory National Service (March 2010 – March 2011) and his full-time Law School attendance (April 2010 – July 2011).
Statutory integrity is not a suggestion; it is the law. You cannot be a full-time corps member and a full-time Law School student simultaneously without violating the strict 70% attendance mandate of the Council of Legal Education. This is not about politics; it is about whether the laws of the Federal Republic of Nigeria apply to everyone or only to those without power.
I stand for the truth. I stand for the law. I stand for accountability.
