People saw me live on NTA news 24
What they may not have noticed was the little baby on my back.
I had every reason to cancel.
Instead, I chose to show up.
This journey has taught me that you don't have to wait for life to become easy before pursuing your purpose.
You simply keep showing up. One step at a time.
Now that Call to bar is over, this week must have been so hard for those who couldnโt make it with their colleagues.
You are not a failure. Itโs a temporary setback.
Donโt be discouraged. Grief, feel sad, pick up again and give it a shot again.
Iโll be here to celebrate yโall loudly and publicly.
Yours sincerely,
F.M Akeju, Esq.
Your senior colleague at the bar.
May it please you all,
S.O. Abimbola, LL.B (First Class), B.L (First Class), ACIArb (UK), AICMC.

Never lose tawakkul. Your time will come. Your prayers will be answered. You'll be where you want to be, as long as you don't lose Allah. Enjoy the life he gave you, appreciate your blessings. He hears your du'as, knows your needs. Everything will come in due time. Insha'Allaah.
Having good thoughts about Allah.

โ"Every time the servant has good thoughts about Allah, โperfects his hope in Him, and is truthful in his trust in Him, then indeed Allah will never disappoint him nor let him down, for He does not break
