I remember admiring Rochas Okorocha as a young girl; he had this decent school for underprivileged girls and other nice things I don’t clearly remember now
I wonder if he was always ‘this person’ Is this a case of absolute power corrupting absolutely? Or a display of true color?

It’s not the first time he’s publicly said such a thing so it’s not a mistake. His general thoughts about Nigerian lawyers are rather dismissive and condescending.

Can’t lie, I feel foolish as a lawyer.

So many people wanted to do big things in Nigeria with a law degree.
Now, it’s all a joke. I’ve got brilliant friends who’d rather chew jeans than practice; some have tweaked their interests/ambitions because of poor litigation conditions. SAN ko?
Everyone is trying to ex now.

Yes, visibility is great for your career but first, let there be depth. When you build competence and create value, visibility will almost be automatic.
Young professionals, don’t chase popularity and neglect depth. People can tell.

Substance over form, always.
I don’t think it’s clever to reduce your choice of leadership to a letter independently written by one man.
The fact that a non-SAN candidate has received endorsement from many SANs should tell you the issues for consideration are beyond SANship.

“She’ll make a good wife”
I never expect that anyone would consider me ‘a good wife’ for domestic reasons. I like to field my best and being domestic is definitely not it. I’m not even interested in proving anything

Saying a minor can give consent in a loose sense is like saying a mentally ill person can give consent or write a valid will.
Consent is a function of capacity not recognition, and minors are deemed legally incapable of doing several things, including giving sexual consent.
A minor can give consent, however her consent isn't recognised by the law which is what makes it criminal.

I don’t think there’s any pride in being “wicked” or “measured” in/with love. If one has to start calculating, withholding, scheming then…
I think we should love honestly & without restraint while we’re at it. If it ends in forever, great. If not, sad but that’s fine too.

The mess that politics is (can be) is why many people refuse to be partisan.
I have chosen to be partisan in the forthcoming NBA elections and will see it through.
The reasons I support Dr. Ajibade have nothing to do with him being a SAN. He is simply the most qualified of them

The issue here is that one’s partner thought it was okay to embarrass one on a public platform.
Breadwinner or not, husband or not, woman or not, celebrity status or not, that was completely out of line.
There is no context that makes it okay and the gender war is unnecessary.
