# Osuofia in London

Osuofia in London is a 2003 Nigerian comedy film produced and directed by Kingsley Ogoro, starring Nkem Owoh. The film is arguably one of the highest selling Nollywood films in history. It was followed by 2004 sequel titled Osuofia in London 2.

## Plot summary

Osuofia (played by Nkem Owoh) is a foolish villager living in Nigeria. He receives word of the demise of his brother, Donatus (played by Francis Odega) in London. However, in his will, Donatus has left Osuofia with his huge estate as the sole beneficiary. Osuofia makes his way to London only to find out that his late brother's English fiancée, Samantha (played by Mara Derwent) is not quite sure herself, about the Nigerian tradition (i.e., Osuofia being a benefactor of his brother's properties). Cultural misunderstandings result in a comedy of errors.

# Robert H. McKercher

Robert Hamilton McKercher, KC (May 6, 1930 – December 15, 2024) was a Canadian lawyer from Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. He served as the national president of the Canadian Bar Association from 1983 to 1984, as well as president of the Law Society of Saskatchewan in 1978.

## Early life and education

McKercher was born in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan on May 6, 1930, the son of Stewart and Etta Marie McKercher. He attended the University of Saskatchewan, graduating with a Bachelor of Arts degree in 1950, and then a Bachelor of Laws degree in 1952. He did post-graduate legal studies at the University of Toronto under Bora Laskin (later Chief Justice of Canada), and then attended Harvard Law School, earning a Master of Laws degree.

## Legal career

Returning to Saskatchewan from Harvard, McKercher entered the practice of law with his brother Donald. The firm continues to operate today as McKercher LLP. He carried on an active practice, including acting as counsel to two different government inquiries. He also acted as counsel for the Saskatchewan Provincial Court Judges Association in a dispute with the government of Saskatchewan over judicial compensation. He eventually appeared in the Supreme Court of Canada on behalf of the Saskatchewan Provincial Court judges in Reference re Remuneration of Judges of the Provincial Court (P.E.I.), the case which established that the constitutional principle of judicial independence requires that issues of judicial compensation must be reviewed by independent commissions.
After McKercher was no longer actively involved in the practice of law, he provided legal services on a pro bono basis to community organizations. He was appointed Queen's Counsel in 1966.

## Service to the legal profession

McKercher served two terms as president of the Saskatchewan Branch of the Canadian Bar Association, from 1966 to 1968. He also was elected national president of the Canadian Bar Association, serving from 1983 to 1984. He also served as president of the Law Society of Saskatchewan in 1978, the provincial regulatory body for lawyers.

## Personal life and death

McKercher was married to Peggy McKercher. She has been extremely active in Saskatoon community organizations, including serving a term as Chancellor of the University of Saskatchewan.
McKercher died on December 15, 2024, at the age of 94.
# TA580/TAS5380

The TAIAN TA580/TAS5380 is a 20-ton 8x8 special heavy duty truck developed and built by Taian Special Vehicle Manufactory and used by the People's Liberation Army of the People's Republic of China as a transport/Transporter erector launcher.

## Description

The TA580/TAS5380 specializes in carrying ballistic missiles, large-caliber artillery rockets, radar equipment as well as other forms of military assets. Unlike the much larger Wanshan WS51200 and the WS21200, the TA580/TAS5380 cannot carry much larger intermediate-range ballistic missiles and intercontinental ballistic missiles.
Nevertheless, the TA580/TAS5380 has a maximum payload capacity of 20 tons, of which it primarily carries the HQ-9 air defence missile system.
The TA580/TAS5380 comes in two additional variants. The TA5382 accommodates an additional four passengers due to the presence of a double cab, as well as being able to mount the WM-80 and WM-120 artillery rocket system. The TA5501 is essentially a much larger variant with a 10x10 configuration, which offers better stability and mobility.

## Platforms

* TAS5380A - 8x8 20 tonnes for the FT-2000 SAM system
* TAS5380SQ - 8x8 30 tonne TEL (WM-80 MRL)
