[/quote]Why Have Many Nigerian Lawyers Now Become Scammers? Why??

So have you been scammed by a Nigerian lawyer before? Have you been scammed of your money by a Nigerian lawyer before? Please don't hide it anymore. Share your experiences. Share it on this thread right now. Please don't suffer in silence anymore.

Share your experience of being deceived and scammed by the person who is supposed to protect you and fight for you. Let us all join hands together to uproot evil lawyers from our legal system in Nigeria. Enough is enough.

We are supposed to be protected by lawyers, but not in Nigeria because Nigerian lawyers have now become scammers. The person who is supposed to protect you and fight for you will end up harming you, scamming you and even intimidating you and threatening you to keep silent. But we can't keep silent anymore. We must speak up and expose evil people in Nigeria, no matter how long it takes. No matter who they are.

As far as I'm concerned, when we remove politicians, there are two most important people, that are very important, that should protect the people, without which a nation will be in trouble. They are, number one; a soldier, and number two; a lawyer. So in Nigeria at least we can trust the Nigerian army not to disappoint the people, they are trying their best, but can we trust lawyers? Why have lawyers become so fraudulent, scammers and untrustworthy? So if the last hope of the common man is broken, then where will the common man run to for succor?

The legal practitioners act of Nigeria stipulates that as a lawyer, you must not disclose the secrets of your client or whatever your client tells you about his or her case to anybody, not even your own wife. But that's only in the book, not so in practice with Nigerian lawyers.

A Nigerian lawyer will secretly and stylishly disclose your secrets which you told him to another person. Or he tells his wife and his wife tells her friend and her friends spread your secrets at the hair dressing salon. And your secret will be out in the newspapers tomorrow morning. That's a Nigerian lawyer for you.

Your secret is never safe with a Nigerian lawyer. It's better you carry a megaphone and stand in the market place and broadcast your secrets out to the whole market than to tell it to a Nigerian lawyer expecting that it will be kept secret. You're on a long thing. Just be rest assured that the whole world will hear it soon.

A Nigerian lawyer will even disclose your secrets to your enemies or opponents and join them to fight you. This is somebody you paid to fight for you, but he will collect money from your opponent/enemy and join hands with them to start fighting you. Evil lawyers are too many in Nigeria. Yet the legal practitioners disciplinary committee or the Nigerian Bar Association will not do anything to these evil lawyers because everybody has been compromised. Oh Nigeria my country!!

If I begin to write every abnormal thing and scams that Nigerian lawyers do, I will keep writing for 6 months nonstop and it will never end. They are so many, so many, so so many and uncountable. So they thought people don't know or that the people are ignorant of the law or that only them know the law or that the people who they are deceiving are so dumb that they don't know their rights as Nigerian citizens.

The problem with Nigerians is that they are too afraid to speak up when they are being intimidated, scammed or deceived. Just like Fela said, suffering and smiling. That's what Nigerians do. Suffering and smiling. Oh Nigeria my country!! It's such a pity.

So you now walk into a law chambers and pay your lawyer to deliver a service to you, he fails to render the service to you and he refused to refund your money and begins to intimidate you and threaten you because he is a lawyer and you are now afraid of him and you keep quiet and forget about the money. Suffering and smiling. But when Buhari does any little thing you will call him all kinds of negative names and abuse him. But see your evil lawyer who is a thief and a criminal and who duped you of your money, you cannot do anything to him or charge him to court because you are afraid.

Let me tell you that as a non lawyer, you can jail your lawyer if he has committed a crime or fraud against you and if you have evidence and can prove it. There's not much difference between you and a lawyer if you are well educated and if you know your rights as a Nigerian citizen. The fact that he is a lawyer does not make him above the law neither does it give him the guarantee to commit crime, to scam you or to defraud you of your money. It's because of evil lawyers like these, that have made the Nigerian legal system backward, because they are the ones conniving and conspiring to frustrate cases and turn cases upside down.

So I gave you money as my lawyer to deliver a service to me, you refused to deliver the service, or delivered it reluctantly and very unsatisfactory and even compounded the case instead of solving the matter, you made it even worse, do you expect me to be happy with you? When I now have to hire another lawyer and pay double or triple money, do you expect me to be happy with you? And you refused to refund my money and started intimidating me, manipulating me and threatening me? Just because you are a lawyer, what kind of evil scammer lawyer are you??

And many people in Nigeria are in my shoes who have had very terrible experiences in the hands of Nigerian lawyers but they can't even speak up. Speak up now, don't be afraid of any lawyer because there's nothing they can do to you. Speak up my people, let's expose evil lawyers so that the good ones can thrive and flourish. Because any good lawyer can never find fault with what I'm saying. But I know the evil ones will surely be very angry and mad with what I've written. But I don't even care.

And if any evil lawyer comes here on this thread to tell me nonsense, to try to manipulate me or try to threaten me in any way whatsoever, or try to deny these things I've written that they are not true, if you provoke me, I will even make sure I spread it all over the internet and I will make sure I write a book about it and circulate it all over the world about the evil of Nigerian lawyers and how they have now become scammers.

Ok let me refresh your memory a little bit. Do you remember a company called Transberg, a transport company in Agege that came up sometime ago? They promised heaven and earth, asked people to invest money. We invested. They later collapsed. They were supported by lawyers. My money is still there up till now. All of us that invested. Up till now I've not heard anything about them. All my money gone down the drain. All supported by lawyers who are their backers.

Do you remember an entity called Bethany? Another fake so called company that purportedly came from Ibadan to Lagos, even with a lawyer and a law chambers backing them, they came to Lagos and went on radio to deceive Nigerians that they were genuine and that people should buy their forms and that people will be given World Bank free grant of Ten million naira, which we later discovered it was all lies. To the extent that the law chambers backing them even gave people receipt of payment with their chambers logo and letterhead. But all these things were just to deceive people and to scam them and continue scamming them of their hard earned money. Up till now, nobody has gotten a dime from that so-called fake company Bethany. And they were all backed by lawyers and championed by lawyers. So Nigerian lawyers have now become scammers. Oh Nigeria my country!!

Do you remember the late Oko Oloyun Worldwide? The herbal man or herbal medicine practitioner that was assassinated few years ago? He was so popular all over Nigeria and I recently read in the news that his wife had remarried another man. Do you know that when the man was alive, he used to do one investment program where he gives people millions of naira, those who invested in his businesses?

Now few months before he died, I was listening to a radio program and I heard one of his numerous radio programs where they were advertising his investment program, and one of the presenters was hyping the investment scheme, and he was now talking about the fact that even a lawyer was there on that day and that the lawyer endorsed it and the lawyer spoke on that day.

So immediately I heard what they were saying, I knew something was wrong and I told myself I will never invest in this kind of thing because it's not going to last. And truly as I said, a few months later, the man was assassinated and I doubt if those who invested their money in Oko Oloyun have gotten their money back till today.

If you invested and you got your money back or not, come out and say it. Let the whole world know. All these things were backed by dubious lawyers who use their position to deceive people and to scam people because of the gains they will make into their own pockets. They are wicked people and God will soon expose all evil lawyers in Nigeria and evil people in Nigeria, except you change your ways.

The problem with the Nigerian judiciary is that when the root is spoilt, it will be very difficult for the head to do well. When a child steals meat from his mother's pot of soup and the mother doesn't even know about it. The same child steals money from his father's trousers pocket in the room without his father knowing it. But the father keeps wondering why money is always missing from his pocket. And the mother will also be wondering why the meat in the pot of soup is always missing. Not knowing that the culprit and criminal is within. The insect that eats the leaf lives within the leaf.

The same child goes to secondary school, plays truancy in school and ends up hiring someone to write WAEC and JAMB/UTME for him. He passed the exams in flying colors but obviously someone wrote the exams for him. He gets admitted to the university to study law and he later graduated, went to law school and is now called to the Nigerian Bar to practice as a lawyer and barrister of the Supreme Court of Nigeria. But this guy is a thief of meat in the pot of soup, a thief of his father's money, a thief of WAEC result, a thief of JAMB result, and all other things he has stolen. Yet, he has been called to the bar to practice as a lawyer, to sit in the chambers and collect your money without delivering the service you paid him for, and that's why he is intimidating you and threatening you on top of your money even after scamming you of your money. He is not a lawyer, he is a thief, a criminal and an armed robber that is supposed to face the firing squad in any sane country.

As you read this, please share it to all your friends and family and all over the internet.

My only hope is that soon Nigeria will be liberated from the hands of evil people, including from the hands of evil lawyers. Another thing that makes me glad is that a seasoned, respected and iconic Nigerian lawyer of repute Professor Yemi Osinbajo will be Nigeria's next president after President Muhammadu Buhari. Nothing will stop it. So I'm glad that when Osinbajo takes over from Buhari soon as Nigeria's president, whether Nigerians like it or not, he being a lawyer of repute will weed out these evil lawyers from the judiciary and restore the Nigerian legal system to its glorious days like the days of the late Chief Gani Fawehinmi, so that the good Nigerian lawyers can rise to restore hope in Nigeria.

And by then Nigeria will know peace from the hands of these evil people that have so much conspired to truncate the glory of God in our land. But Nigeria shall rise once again. Nigeria shall rise in the hands of our anointed president, incoming president Professor Yemi Osinbajo (SAN). Yes, it shall happen before May 29th 2023 and nothing will stop it. Men are mere mortals and we are pencils in the hands of the Creator.

Share your experiences with Nigerian lawyers..

Only very few of them are truly honest.

Too many dishonest lawyers in Nigeria.

No one will respond to you. If your lawyer defrauded you, please lay complaints to the appropriate authorities.

You can only report to the appropriate authorities and expect action to be taken in a sane and working country where institutions work normally. But not in Nigeria. Human beings are bigger than the institutions in Nigeria.

So a guilty person can even head an institution or appropriate authority and then how do you report a guilty person to himself?

The institution/appropriate authorities have been compromised. Before a person comes online to write things, he must have seen a lot and passed through a lot. And spent a lot.

Social media has become the appropriate authority for many people in Nigeria, and that's where many issues are settled fast, after wasting your money and time for many years looking for justice and you can't get justice and the evil lawyers frustrate you, the next bus stop is to spread the story all over the internet and all over the world, so that we can kukuma tarnish the image of the whole profession involved, so that they can learn and change for the better.

Yes, it's expected. I fully expected comments like this and I know they will come.

You thought you could provoke me with your comments and insults? No I'm higher than that level you're operating from because I can never and will never be provoked. So if you like gather all the insults in the whole world and insult me, you're wasting your time because it can never get to me.

Is that taken?

But people who know the value of what I've written will understand it. It's for people with higher mental capacity and who appreciate the truth, not for children.

Well! My take is that most Nigerians are the architect of their misfortune. Why am I saying this?

First, we have loads and loads of quack and fake lawyers who are not qualified to practice law in Nigeria, but they are practising just like we have fake doctors, LASMA officers, etc.

I encountered a potential client who wanted to travel earlier this year.

He was happily married with kids in Nigeria. But he told the visa officers that he was a divorcee. And when he was asked to produce an enrolment order evidencing this, which he erroneously called a divorce certificate, he could not provide any evidence.

Secondly, Nigerians hate the truth.

Why am I saying this?


Upon interviewing him, I discovered he had lied to procure his visa and needed a marriage certificate to back up his lies.

He was still happily married. Guess what?

The wife had no idea what was happening. He needed the certificate within a month. I told him the truth, but this didn't sit well with him.

He reported me to the friend that referred him that I was a quack and didn't know what I was doing. He was joyous that he was able to procure what he called a divorce certificate at the sum of 50k.

He didn't know that what he got was a fake certificate.

The matter didn't go to court, had no case file, and no document was filed.

How did he get a decree order nisi much more decree absolute?

This takes a minimum of six months to a year if it is an undefended suit. And if contested, it could take forever.

If the embassy discovers tomorrow that he produced a fake enrolment order and his visa is revoked, he will blame the lawyer.

Also, Nigerians don't like paying professionals. I was reading of the one that paid a lawyer 90k to defend him in a criminal case.

Why on earth should a sane litigator charge 90k for a criminal case that you only know when you begin a case and don't know when or how it will end? It may drag on for years, and you may be buried in a mountain of paperwork.

Well! A hungry lawyer will take it. But when reality sets in and he discovers he is now spending his personal to prosecute a client's case, he will abandon the case. Especially if hunger and the need to get food was the immediate reason, he took the case in the first place.

Lastly, most clients don't tell their lawyers the absolute truth. They tell the lawyer what they think the lawyer should know. But when shit hits the fan in court and the adverse party supplies evidence to knock out the case, they will turn back and blame the lawyer.

I can't imagine spending 12-18 hours on average thinking of how to solve a client's legal issues, having earned my fee, only to discover that the client withheld vital information or lied outrightly. I may not tell the client, but the case will lose its steam cos it will be off my priority list. I have a target of the number of cases I want to win each year.

So before you blame all the lawyers in Nigeria and support Master Shakespeare's elucidation that all lawyers should be killed, look inward and ask yourself if you are not the architect of your misfortune.

Shalom.

Good comment lawyer. If every lawyer in Nigeria could reason like you, Nigeria will be better. We need good lawyers who are disciplined, truthful, and reliable. Nigeria needs a change.

no matter the profession, if someone is not disciplined, never expect the right thing from that person

anthonyuncle:

True talk my brother.

A good number of Nigerians do not have integrity .


All that runs through their heads is how to cheat you as if the proceeds of their fraudulent act is enough to prosper them.

So you can imagine a child that lies and steals and then he later becomes a lawyer, what kind of lawyer will he be? A lawyer criminal or a criminal lawyer??

It starts from the root.

Any nasty experience with a lawyer, share it.

Share your thoughts. Share your stories. Don't fear anything.

Drop your views. Let's discuss this issue.

I stopped reading when I saw yemi osinbajo will be next president, seems the write-up is out of date

The lawyers and leaders are a reflection of the society

When a society look at itself in the mirror what it will see is her leader and lawyers

Hmmm

oluwaseyi0:
I stopped reading when I saw yemi osinbajo will be next president, seems the write-up is out of date

That's exactly what will happen.

No, the write-up is not out of date. It's very very current.

Yes, he's not a presidential candidate of any political party, but he will become Nigeria's president and take over from Buhari and nothing can stop it.

Save this post and quote me after Osinbajo becomes Nigeria's president in the next few months.

oluwaseyi0:

Yes it's a reflection of the society.

Tell your experiences.

They're all products of their environment.

I see.
