I am a qualified Legal practitioner of 10 years post call experience in one of the western state from a Federal University. I also have an ACCA Certificate in International Financial Reporting. I was doing fairly well in my craft/ private legal practice. until sometime around 2020 that I had a medical condition that almost claimed or altered my life but for providence. I was grounded in the Teaching Hospital for 3 months, during that time I went through so many things , even an elaborate surgical procedure that lasted for about 5 hours.

Long after the successful completion of my hospital stay and I'm still here trying to pick and string up the broken and disjointed pieces of my life together. It is taking long because I couldn't even get an office and furnish it with little but necessary details. Considering where I am coming from ,without any proper support system, I am back trying to better my lot in a state that's not so financially viable.

I am very sure there are successful lawyers on this forum in bigger cities and I hope someone somewhere will connect with my plight and bring me on board, give me a leverage or support me with the wherewithal I am lacking in rebuilding my career interests. I could also veer into other spheres of Law, particularly finance and other niche.

I would also be willing to undergo a mentoring process with anyone who will patiently see to my growth and career well-being. I'm overwhelmed, slowly sliding into depression and my present condition is far less than desirable. I am going to provide proof on request. My condition and position is 100% genuine.

Advice, Encouragement and Support is welcome cool

I'm 35 BTW....

Re: PFN To Nigerians: Vote Competence, Not Religion by Eriokanmi: 10:12am On Oct 03, 2022
Tinubu I know has a daring spirit. He'd have dared the north and produced a Christian running mate. I don't think he's biased against Christianity, going by his antecedents. The problem he faced was the apc. They wanted betraying him, especially the northern caucus. History doesn't lie. Adamu, the chairman alongside northern caucus preferred Lawan. No be today dem dey betray southerners, especially the elites in the north. Their youths are becoming wiser now.

I still keep saying this, obj was their last option in 1999 and it was because of MKO's death. Since power had to return to the south, they saw obj as someone closer to them who wouldn't betray them. But baba iyabo didn't look their way hence, the political sharia which almost outsted him. There was rumour of coup too when he was away but obj said he'd reclaim his office when he returned.

These people are terrible. Tinubu only played a smart one on them, though to his disadvantage by dancing to their tunes of considering a muslim-muslim ticket. If you ask him, he doesn't like it. He's a political guru who should know better. Had he refused this arrangement, he'd have lost in the primaries. Lawan was already full of himself, someone who said he'd support tinubu the day the latter visited the national assembly.

I'd never be in support of that arrangement, even though I'm not a religous bigot. I'd voted both Muslim and Christian candidates since 1999 both at state and at the federal levels. Na condition make Tinubu crayfish bend and that's his choice. All the jargon being said by some biased politicians and their followers that...after all, MKO did it and succeeded...is Tinubu MKO? Can he wear MKO's shoes? MKO made Nigerians from different religions and ethnicity multi millionaires in his time, at a time when he wasn't even nursing political ambitions. He was loved by many. Imagine someone running into a gang of robbers and they respected him as soon as he stepped out of his car after the robbers had killed and maimed many on the highway on that fateful day and they promised not to steal again. That's natural love and why he won so massively. Those thieves later went back to school on MKO's sponsorship. Who wears his shoes in Nigeria today? Can Tinubu walk freely across the lenght and breadth of Nigeria today without heavy escorts? MKO was the only one who used to do that. Again, that period wasn't as volatile as we have today in Nigeria. Nigeria is so divided now, with her enemies threatening to collapse her.

Again, If the party had done so well, the choice of a Christian running mate from among the northern politicians wouldn't have been an issue. In fact, people would have willingly voted them once again, especially those doubting thomases and the ones who gave them the benefit of the doubt in 2015. Who no like beta tin? But because they've done woefully on security, fighting corruption and economy, which were the 3 pillars they based their manifestos on, they wanted to return by force hence , the idea of the Muslim-Muslim ticket to win in the core north. It's dead on arrival.

Christians this is the right time to show Tinubu that you people are not second class citizen in this country, this is high time to show Tinubu that you people are not inconsequential as he clearly shows you people that you people are nothing in Nigeria. You can vote Atiku , you can vote Obi, or any presidential aspirant that carry Christians along, but never give this idiotic useless satanic jihadist your vote, he doesn't deserve it a bit.


Assuming a christian won the major political party ticket and goes on to picked a christian as his running mate, by now jihad would've been declared by Muslim fanatics up north on Christians there, the foolish and usêlèss Muric would've wrote his long epistle crying endlessly. Christians if una like make una mumu, una think say Dem like una? Do the mistake of voting in this thing, and live to regret forever, remember how Buhari regime is with Christians.


Oga, keep your Christianity for your pocket.

We no need am.

Jonathan and Obasanjo no be Christian?

Buhari outperformed both of them combined.

The fact that you're not doing that religious shit doesnt mean that they are not doing it. I'm an atheist, but because I know I'm in Nigeria, I factor in religion in my decision making. I won't shove it aside because I don't believe in it when I know that there are those who do. So stop deceiving yourself.

I'm not a politician but I would do everything not to have PDP in Government in Nigeria.
The greatest tragedy that can befall a nation is for her citizens to suffer collective amnesia. I believe PDP believes Nigerians have short memories,
For those who may have forgotten, kindly joggle your memories with the following words on marble and you will agree with me.

Happy reading:

1. I acted based on Jonathan's instruction - Dasuki

2. I didn't give order - Jonathan

3. I collected 350M from Dasuki for consultation - Iyorchia Ayu

4. I only collected $30,000 from Dasuki not N100m - Bode George

5. I got N4.6b from Dasuki for spiritual purposes - Bafarawa

6. I got N650M from Dasuki for my Abuja burnt office - Thisday Obaigbena.

7. I got N2.1b from Dasuki for publicity - Dokpesi

8. I got another N100m from Yuguda he didn't tell me from where - Bafarawa.

9. I gave N100m each to Odili, Jim Nwobodo Bode George and others - Yuguda

10. The president asked me to change N10B to foreign currency for PDP delegates - Dasuki

11. My boss asked me to get $11M from the CBN - Dasuki's account officer.

12. I got order from above to pay Tompolo N13B for Maritime university land. - Nimasa DG.

13. 950m was shared in my house -- Shekarau

With all this looting and many more revealed, some people are still shouting no sign of change yet, they even say it's political persecution.

If this was true, by now there should be unrest in states in the southwest, southeast and southsouth with both governors and his deputy christian, but instead Muslims in these region chose to be calm. Stop sponsoring division among Nigerians just because you don't like Islam.
No country grow by selecting leaders based on his rather he should be selected based on his competency, capacity and his past antecedent.
I urge Nigerians to consider the above features in selecting their president and avoid politics of hate and bigotry.

The PFN had better made its stance known rather than these equivocations.


They must never make themselves toothless bulldogs who merely barks but can't bite.


If they now turn around to say religion and ethnicity shouldn't be guiding factors in the forthcoming presidential election, then why all the hue and cry over the Mu-Mu ticket all these while?



If they decide to trade away the relevance of Christians and other non Muslim faiths in the political equation, they shouldn't cry foul when the reality of their tomfoolery begins to torment them in the long run.


To say religion doesn't matter is infact a subtle endorsement of the Mu-Mu ticket which they have been vociferously criticizing since the issue cropped up.


We hope Tinubursted hasn't deployed bullion vans to PFN.


We shall find out soon enough.
