[Ogundipe, Esq. @The_Ogundipe]

If he or she has to quote it, why not? I understand your point and I know that the police system has dropped to a level where they trample on the law they are meant to uphold, but I don't accept the notion that every lawyer must go to the station to massage ego or play acolyte to the police.

There are certain practices I'd never subscribe to as a lawyer. I'd rather quit law and ply my trade elsewhere.

I've had reasons to write a station and request for a formal letter of invitation before a colleague could turn up. He was called on phone and asked to come. I told my colleague that a random phone call from someone who calls himself a police officer doesn't suffice.

My argument was that with the security situation, there's a need for such invitation to be formal and documented. If anything happens, let us be able to show who called him and where he went.

Did the police take it lightly? No. Throughout the process, they kept referring to me as "The lawyer who asked us to write a letter before his client can come" in a very aggressive way.
They wrote the letter. They did not like my gut. I did not like theirs either. I was not there to shop for affection and it would be unduly aspirational of me to desire such warmth from a system that I do not fancy. But they had to do the right thing.

We honoured their invitation and every attempt to intimidate and use subtle force was resisted in line with the law.

I kept telling the colleague I represented that if he gave in to police intimidation, he has failed the people. They'd count it as a win to tell others or another lawyer that: "Even a lawyer came here and we did xyz".

I am generally not welcoming of police briefs, but when I take it, I am not going there to bang my feet or raise my voice. I am also not going there to massage any ego or make a little man great. However, I'd insist that the right things be done.

I do not intend to legislate on how a lawyer should handle police briefs or prescribe the standard, but I hate that we often see lawyers who insist that police should do the right thing as inexperienced.

If we uphold the notion and sell it as the norm, it is a indictment on us and a matter of serious concern for non-lawyers.

Again, I am not saying that a "be a monkey to catch a monkey" approach to police practice is bad, for lawyers who opt for it. I am only saying that holding it up as the standard is, with due respect, an indictment on us as lawyers.

Reflections on My 65th Birthday

Today, July 19, 2026, marks my 65th birthday. At sixty-five, birthdays should naturally become moments of deep reflection - moments to look back with gratitude to Almighty God for His abundant graces, examine the journey so far, and ask how the remaining years can be devoted more meaningfully to the service of God and humanity.

Perhaps in countries where basic human needs have largely been met, where institutions function effectively, and where citizens enjoy a greater measure of security and dignity, such attainments may rightly call for elaborate celebrations. In Nigeria, however, our reality compels a different kind of reflection.

Our nation is blessed with enormous human and natural resources, yet millions of our people continue to struggle with challenges that demand our collective attention. We cannot afford to celebrate ourselves excessively while many around us are burdened by poverty, ill health, unemployment, and limited opportunities. Rather, occasions such as this should remind us of our responsibility to contribute towards building a nation where future generations can genuinely celebrate.

This is why I have always seen birthdays not merely as occasions for personal celebration, but as opportunities for sober reflection, thanksgiving, and a renewed commitment to service.

As I reflected today, I came to a simple conclusion: the greatest celebration of life is not what we receive from others, but the lives we can touch positively.

This conviction has guided my approach throughout my years in business, in the corporate world, and as Governor of Anambra State. In each of these roles, I have tried to see every privilege not as a personal entitlement but as an opportunity to improve the lives of others.

Whenever people or institutions sought to celebrate me with expensive gifts or elaborate ceremonies, I encouraged them instead to redirect those resources towards projects that would have a lasting impact. Over the years, this philosophy has resulted in the building of schools, hostel blocks, support to schools, and other facilities that continue to benefit the less privileged. I have always believed that resources meant for personal comfort can often be transformed into instruments of hope for many.

The greatest honour anyone can receive is not found in gifts, ceremonies, or public admiration, but in knowing that one’s life has contributed, however modestly, to making another person’s life better.

Today, therefore, I give thanks to Almighty God for the gift of life and for bringing me to this important milestone of 65 years. I began the day with a Mass of Thanksgiving in Onitsha, thanking God for His grace, protection, guidance, and the countless blessings He has bestowed upon me over the years.

After the Mass, I proceeded to St. Raphael’s Hospital, Umueri, a small rural hospital in Anambra East Local Government Area. In furtherance of my belief that birthdays should be occasions for service rather than self-indulgence, I donated the sum of ₦10 million to support the hospital’s work of providing quality healthcare to the people.

As I was conducted around the hospital and saw patients in their moments of vulnerability, I was reminded again of our shared humanity. Some of those receiving care may not even have the financial means to settle their hospital bills, yet they deserve compassion, dignity, and access to quality healthcare. Their condition was a reminder that leadership, in its truest form, is about caring for people, especially those who cannot repay our kindness.

Hospitals and schools remain two of the greatest investments any society can make. A hospital preserves life; a school shapes the future. Supporting both is, therefore, not just an act of charity - it is an investment in humanity and in the future of our nation.

Gustavo Fring was right, if you have a problem that means it can be solved. If it cannot be solved then it is not a problem. It is a reality to be accepted.

The wait is over.

We have 2 golds: Chimdiebube Onwubiko and Don Anele Munachimso.

On a second thought, if and when the NYSC program is canceled.

The various training camps should be converted to prisons.

Crazy story of how I rushed my Economics external exam in under 40 minutes just to catch the football team bus for an away tournament… and I actually passed the paper!
I’d been training with the team the whole time, even though I knew I had exams that day.
