Optimist

I can’t be a lawyer to everybody, but those I represent can count on my deep commitment to their vision and my readiness to address their challenges. Additionally, I uphold the highest standards of integrity in my practice, which is a fundamental principle I take very seriously.

I just feel strongly that I’m entering into a new season of my life.

Confidentiality is the beauty of law. Lawyers are bound to keep all secrets till their graves.

There are a lot of beautiful songs that are yet to be sung.

Currently working on an LA, and I am pitying the young child going through a lot to get the property of her parent. Not having a will is like leaving the decision to the Government to decide on your behalf. And if one does not want to do a Will, one can do a Living Trust.

There’s no denying that some individuals disguise themselves as record labels, taking advantage of artists. However, the truth is that there are still credible and efficient record labels that understand the business and execute it properly.

@NewsCentralTV Thank you @NewsCentralTV for having me.

The best way to be a successful lawyer is to make a lot of money. If you don't like money then you can be a successful activist.

There’s no doubt about what we’re building at @space_firm. We’re not just creating an ordinary regular law firm; we are relentlessly forging something extraordinary. Our vision is clear, and we will see it through to completion, ensuring it is passed down to the next generation.

Scene 1. A new finance staff resumes at a record label. She opens the books. Scrolls. Stops. Scrolls back again. “What exactly is going on here?” First week on the job. Scene Background Finance has received an email requesting for 60m for tiktok influencers. She is stunned at the request Vs the ROI. She proceeds to respond to the email with the new financial system she put in place. She decides to call a meeting to explain this. Finance: I need the invoice for that promo payment. Plugger: We don’t do invoices in this industry, who be this JJC. Abeg make una no waste my time. Do you know who i am? Finance: Then I cannot release the money. Plugger: 😂😂😂, na so una go spoil the life of the artise. Finance is confused. Because in every normal business, if money is going out, there should be paperwork. But in music, people will look at you like you are the problem for asking for proof. Then the artist hears about it. Artist: So the label is holding my promo money? What kind of useless label is this? You know how this industry works. Nobody does invoice. Una wan frustrate my life. Artiste mops around and threatens social media outburst. Label ignores the finance staff and releases the money to keep the artist happy. No invoice. No receipt. No trail. Just vibes to keep the artiste happy and bad governance. Finance girl is sitting there quietly like: So all of you want to go to jail together? I am not one of them. She resigns. Fast forward. Relationship breaks down. Artist sues label. Everybody now wears suit. Everybody now speaks grammar. Everybody now remembers the law. Courtroom scene. Lawyer: You said you spent ₦300 million on promotion? Label owner: Yes. We promoted heavily. Lawyer: Great. Show the court the documents. Silence. Label owner: The artist knew the plugger. He introduced him to us. He said he wanted 40 tiktokers and thats what will blow the song. Lawyer: I asked for the invoice. Label owner: He approved the campaign. Lawyer: I asked for proof of payment and supporting documents. Label owner: Everybody in the industry knows how these things work. Lawyer: Court does not run on “everybody knows.” Camera cuts to the artist. He is seated like he has never heard the word plugger in his life. He denies approving anything; he is stone cold poker face. And just like that, we spend another 3 years arguing to prove ₦300 million. Not because it was not spent. But because it could not be proved If you run a label, behave like a business. If you manage an artist, behave like a business. If money leaves your account, there must be paper behind it. Every single time. Hire a proper finance and legal person. Because the industry runs on trust until the relationship breaks down. Then it runs to court. And when it gets to court, nobody will be arguing with tweets, friendship, phone calls, or “he was there" or "he is my brother." Bring your documents or prepare for embarrassment.

I’ve been doing this legal work in MY WAY.

You Said you're an Entertainment Lawyer, but you just gave a producer who doesn't contribute 50% of the master rights and 50% of publishing. You’ve also split control of the master/IP rights based on Copyright law instead of the usual music business approach.

Most religion is just the perception of its leader. It was here we were when some religious organisations weren't watching TV. What change? Leaders should stop all this babble and focus on faith. Religion is different from Faith. Don't be loyal to religion but to faith

Police should always regard lawyers. A police officer cannot disregard me in front of my client and expect me to regard him. Lawyers and Police are both making society a better place. Once an officer disregards me, I don't want to know your age, I’ll use my legal weapons on him.

Most times, the only language the Nigerian Police understand is Lawyer.
