All this charge and bail lawyers looking for cheep publicity , what's his own with Buhari's name if Buhari likes let him change his name to Johanatan Mohammadu Buhari , dats left for him to decide cos we are not after his name but the what he has to offer to develope our beloved country Nigeria. If Buhari likes let him convert to a Christian it's his choice so long as he will do what is expected of him. |

You see! This is the result of the problem we have in education sector and unemployment, in fact so many things leads to this. Even the way boys and girls, men and women patronise social media this day is worrisome. |

Ebun is going insane! Obasanjo was called Chief Olusegun Obasanjo (OBJ, not General Obasanjo), Ikemba Odumegwu Ojukwu was so called (not General Ojukwu)... This is needless attention-seeking madness. Ebun is becoming monotonous, boring, and is engaging in delusion of grandeur. This was not the way Gani Fawehinmi, blessed soul, won his stripes and reputation... |

I have always loved Ebun but this suit is as stupid as it is frivolous. You can not legally define what a person wants to call himself. If Ebun wants to be known as Barrister Ebun-Olu Adegoruwa or simply as Ebun, that is his cup of coffee. Gani Fawehinmi loved to be called simply Gani and not Barrister Gani Fawehinmi and there was nothing illegal about it. The fact that Buhari wants to be simply called Mohammadu Buhari does not remove the fact that he is a retired General from his CV. He remains a retired General to death. So Ebun should look for other ways to get noticed. Ebun should be suing General Tompolo for answering the title of a general without being a soldier. |

Ezenwammadu:i think the lawyer does nt understading the contex to which GMB was talking. What GMB was trying to say was that he is ready to rule nigeria as a democrat nt as a general its nt that the man is running away from his title or past. Its no issue |

So it's true that Lawyers in Nigeria are no longer relevant! Choi! Jst imagine this mr Learned colleague trying to own his own chamber by pursuing a case that is not worth it. If he's looking for cases, he should go out there and fight the repression of the surbordinate class in the society, he should fight for the ordinary man who has no lawyer and he's been opressed arbitrarily. until then, oga lawyer!!! Your bearing as a Learned colleague is still missing. JONZING MAN. 1 Like |

Pls dont blame this lawyer he is a jobless man. All politicians on both sides have conceeded defeat so no case for lawyers make money from. Abeg make them find something for this guy b4 something terrible happens to him. He is a jobless lawyer. That was how FFK started critisizing Gej until he got a mouth-watering job at the presidency that made him to change tune. If he wants to go to court let him. I used to respect this guy b4 i didnt know he is just an attention seeker. Throughout Gej time he did nt see anything to take to court even the fuel subsidy scam, he now wants to take smbody to court for dropping a title. What a shame to him as a lawyer? 1 Like |

So, if after being sworn in, someone knowingly or unknowingly addresses the president as "General Buhari ", what happens? Will it be an offence , libelous, derogatory, abuse, disrespect, or WHAT? Does "General " connote badness? I don't understand ! Even when our past federal legislators love to be addressed as Senator A, Honorable B , someone that spent almost all his career life to attain a position wants to ' deny ' he ever attained such enviable height. WHY? WHY? WHY? Let nobody tell me it's called Humility. 1 Like |

It is called public interest litigation. Thumbs up to Ebun. In the eye of the law, it need not be significant before you can sue. He's only saying he can ask the court for a declaration that GMB cannot decree Nigerians to stop calling him a general when in fact he has been (and still) obtains benefit from such capacity that christened him General. It is a very common practice in other democracies. 2 Likes |

claycares: GMB never "decreed" Nigerians from calling him a general, as it as no legal status. He only adviced that he prefered that the title be dropped. You can call him whatever you like, he might just not respond to you if you call him General. 1 Like |
