Time to do the cliche thing, with a sprinkle of bragging as a double first class lawyer ๐

Cheers to the end of a journey and the beginning of a new one.
My pictures were fire also by the way ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฅ
I came here to tell you all that piggysanta came visiting. They said I have been a good girl since January. Ese oooo @piggyvest@getpocketapp#Piggysanta
Back in secondary school I had the impression that the university was a dangerous place. I resumed in OAU and was surprised to see how calm everywhere was. No disturbance, just learning and culture.
Africa's most beautiful campus for a reason๐ฅ
OAU campus is one of the sanest environments in Nigeria. At least during my time there (2001-2006).
The only exception is when students are triggered and they are fighting injustice. Thatโs when they sometimes break laws.
My first five days on OAU campus, electricity did not blink for a second. That was the first time I experienced that in my adult life.
Also the only place I felt comfortable to walk 5 kilometers at 2am, even in lonely places.
Zebra crossing is also largely adhered to.
I don't do this here very often but I love my church @cci_yaba and @cci__global. Today's sermon was so timely and very instructive. It also did evoke some thoughts on purposeful living.
I will live up to the CCI Promise, so help me God.
Today, I write with a heart widened by wonder and stilled by gratitude.
To be named the 2025 Prize for Laureate @NGRLitPrize is an honour that reaches beyond me, one that belongs to every dreamer who still believes stories can move the world.
To think myself and a colleague at work was discussing, and he had alluded to the poem about 2 weeks ago, and that was why I went back to search for the poem.
The title is actually โThe Road Not Takenโ by Robert Frost, not โThe Road Less Traveled.โ This poem brought back a gush of memories. I knew every single poem in our WASSCE Literature textbook by heart including this one. I could recite them all without missing a line. I had AI in Literature in English back then. I have always loved literature.
Love the creativity. ๐
The major problem OAU has is strike.
But you see the student community? Top-tier. โจ Top-tier.
Be active in it in a strategic way and you'll thank yourself for it.
PS: Introverts can leverage student communities too. I'm an introvert.
the reception. One memorable thing for me was that, it was at that burial I saw the most number of prominent people I have ever met in my life; Fmr President Obasanjo, Femi Otedola, Prof. Osinbajo, and many more people.
Mr. Akinwumi Adesina didn't sponsor us eventually but that
My people, if you needed a sign that God is coming through for you, this is the sign you needed!
I just got notified that my application for visa to the United Kingdom was successful.
My joy knows no bounds and my gratitude you God and to you is full! Thank you all for making this possible!๐ฅบโค๏ธ
