😂😂 It rains everywhere

If e sweet o, I go chop am slow slow. It's my own policy, I try to extend the 'excitement' for as long as possible.

In March, I saw something that has refused to leave me. We had an accident in Lekki. It was around 10pm. One of us was injured, and in that moment nothing else mattered except getting him help. You assume that once you get to a hospital, the worst is behind you. You assume someone will take over. But that is not what happened. We rushed to the first hospital. They looked at us and referred us elsewhere. No urgency, no attempt to stabilise him, just directions to go somewhere else. We got to the general hospital, hoping things would change. Instead, we were told they do not treat emergency cases. At that point, it felt unreal. A hospital… saying they do not handle emergencies. We asked for an ambulance. There was none. So at about 11pm, we stood outside, trying to book a ride like it was a normal night, except it wasn’t. Someone was in pain, and we were running out of options. We got to the Federal Medical Centre. This time, we thought, surely this is it. But we waited. And waited. Over two hours, no one attended to us. When someone finally came out, they told us there was no bed. No bed. We left again. Another hospital. Same pattern. Delay. Indifference. Movement with no progress. The accident happened at 10pm. He was not admitted until about 7am. Seven hours of moving from place to place. Seven hours of hoping. Seven hours of wondering if we were about to lose someone simply because we could not find a system that would take responsibility. And the most painful part is this: if the injuries had been internal, if it was something we could not see, that delay could have been the difference between life and death. You start to ask yourself uncomfortable questions. What exactly are you supposed to do in an emergency? Where do you go? Who is actually responsible for saving a life in that moment? That night stripped away any illusion I had about how things work. It showed me how exposed we really are. And it also explains something else. Why people hold on to faith so tightly. Because when you cannot trust that a hospital will save you, you turn to God and hope He will. But it should not be this way. It should never get to the point where survival depends more on hope than on a functioning system. The truth is simple, and it is painful: in this country, one health emergency can change everything. And sometimes, it is not the injury that takes you, it is the delay.

@A_the_Almighty @_shwabade_ As far as I'm concerned, this is the best game there is.

@_shwabade_ I was addicted to uncharted Mann

The first time I played “The last of us” I didn’t go outside for like 3 days

Being a lawyer.

If your ambition is to build serious wealth in the legal profession, you must first understand a simple reality. Every profession contains financial ceilings. Those ceilings often come from the structure of the work itself. In many trades, income remains tightly tied to personal labour. A barber earns by the number of haircuts completed in a day. A plumber earns by the number of service calls handled. Skill improves reputation. Hard work increases demand. Yet income still rises slowly because time remains the main currency. Law is different, but only when approached strategically. A lawyer who serves high value clients, handles complex transactions, or works on cross border matters can command fees in stronger currencies. In jurisdictions like Nigeria, where the exchange rate magnifies the value of foreign currency earnings, a single brief priced in dollars can translate into substantial local income. The lesson is practical. Professional effort alone does not determine financial outcomes. The market you serve, the clients you attract, and the currency in which your work is priced often matter even more. A lawyer who understands this early positions his practice differently. He moves closer to sophisticated clients, international work, and high value disputes. That shift, more than raw effort, often determines how far financial success can go.

Adulting has humbled me a lot. I finally understand why so many adults stop posting on social media or even deactivate their accounts.

Conversation between a Yoruba man and an Arab security in Kaaba. Security: You cannot enter the Kaaba, only people with Hiram clothes can enter (he said in Arabic) Yoruba man: (face me and asked) “Alfa edakun ki lo wi” Me: translated what the security man said to him. Yoruba man: (tried to enter the Kaaba by force, attempted to jump the barricade) Security: (pushed the man and he fell down) Yoruba man: Olosi ọwọ ara rẹ, iwa buruku to wa l’ọwọ awọn baba yin nanu ti anabi fi sa lọ Madinah Me: (Burst laugh) 😂😂😂😂

@TheIdLawrence I think we can distinguish between a letter and a court process. The same principle "might apply" for a letter. If it were a court process, I can understand. I am aware of the floodgate of cases won on merit at the trial court but overturned at the Appellate bcos of this.

NO. “A process is signed by AN identifiable lawyer, not a group of lawyers or a law firm” GTB v Innoson 2017 SC Air France v Orwualah CA

Lawyers should stop ending emails with “Please don’t hesitate to reach out.” Because we're lying! Every lawyer reading that is secretly hoping you hesitate.

@sciencegirl Absolutely a most majestic & powerful creature of nature. 🦅

I am that person who remembers that small favour you did to me many years ago.

@dougboneparth It rains everywhere apparently. 🙄

I think my wife’s happiness is directly correlated to our house looking like no one lives in it.

you just gotta fuck up your first bag, financial literacy comes w xp

This was premeditated, that much I could deduce from your post. This is a clear case of Murder, not even manslaughter. You must take your victim as you found him. That is exactly what you have admitted to.

@Hybrid_Ola Are you inferring that she doesn't deserve one?

Mirabel don get lawyer ke

@ifemi_LLB After hours of pre-trial 😂😂

During Examination in chief, after identifying and tendering a document. Counsel: What do you want the court to do for you in this circumstance? Witness: I want the Court to collect my father’s land for me. Counsel: is that what I told you to say (raising his voice a bit ) 😂😂😂😂😂

omo find your unfair advantage and exploit it.
