Just look at how the UK justice system is treating Ike Ekweremadu, a top Nigerian politician and Deputy President of the Nigerian Senate for three consecutive senates. But here, one Chinese businessman with less than $10k will refuse to go for police invites. We are our problem.

If you know how vindictive Nigerian politics is, had Peter Obi taken 1 shilling, his name would be the first name on the list. I think this is enough to respect the man, and you mustn't be a fan.

Quite frankly, it's not even his business. He is not the police and he has no prosecutorial authority. Speaking this way is simply high-handedness with a pinch of executive recklessness.

"Messi wasn't a good footballer in the year he scored 91 goals." "Why?" "He doesn't have a popular nickname in Nigeria."
I know it might just be for engagements, but I am certain that is such an extremely foolish thing to tweet.
Thierry Henry was so good in 03/04, They nicknamed him Igwe.
Cristiano Ronaldo was unbelievably Good in 07/08, they nicknamed him Ororo in SW states and Ototo in SE states.
Shebi una say Messi good for 2012, why dem no give am nickname?

A vote for Peter Obi is beyond winning the election. It is the most significant statement you can make about the state of our nation. It is a statement I'll be making on Saturday. There is no narrative about how slim his chances are that will stop me from making that statement.

1. TV stations used to close for the day.
2. Radio stations ran drama series.
3. Video cassette rental stores.

5. Water was sold in hand tied nylons.
6. Blue Band was sold in tin cans

Then, there are schools in Nigeria that, regardless of how hard you study, your grades are dependent on grace. The Faculty of Law, Lagos State Univeristy, is a good case study. You can fail a course you're meant to have an A in because the lecturer doesn't know the course.
If you are still in school, try and make that first class or at least 2.1. A good first degree opens many doors. If it’s scholarship, you’ll be considered first. If it’s job opening, you’ll always make it to aptitude test or interview stage. There are many opportunities.

Nigerian tech companies will do anything to avoid paying for good legal services. The latest trend is getting law students to draft their agreements. It's part of the learning curve sha. All manner of disputes will soon come knocking at your door.

Lawyers should normalise paying colleagues for solicited opinions and assistance, especially when you earn a fee from utilising that opinion. It's just the right thing to do.

I get supporting Tinubu because it benefits you. I don't even care about how morally deplorable that benefit can be. I get it. But to think there're people, walking amongst us, who genuinely believe that Tinubu can change this country, makes me sleepless. It makes me feel unsafe.

In today's Nigeria, legislators are judged by the physical infrastructure they are able to contribute to their constituencies. A senator can perform his roles impeccably and still be considered a failure by the voters. Political education is a must.
