I have learnt that not every client is worth taking on.
A client who avoids every conversation about fees, cannot clearly explain why they left their previous lawyer, and wants you to jump into a case without proper handover is often waving a red flag.
Taking over an existing matter is not cheaper or easier. It comes with more work, more responsibility, and more risk.
Sometimes the most profitable decision a lawyer can make is to politely decline the brief.
Faculty president was probed for mismanaging funds and couldn’t explain where millions of Naira went to .
My departmental president used over a million to fix sockets in about 6 lecture rooms . Each lecture room doesn’t have more than 5 sockets.
Omo that guy just dey embezzle money dey go.
Funnily, these are the people interested in being politicians. At the end we just get same quality of politicians. The difference is that the faces are different. The cycle of corruption
Let us look at the actual neurology behind this.
1. Our brain tracks our position using our eyes and our inner ear balance center. When we sit in the back of a car and look at the stationary seats inside, our eyes tell our brain that we are sitting perfectly still. But our inner ear feels the car turning and moving. This causes a massive signal clash.
2 In nature the only time our vision and balance completely disagree like this is if you accidentally ate a toxic plant. Your brain assumes you are poisoned and triggers nausea to make you empty your stomach to save your life.
3. Why Only Some People Get Sick?
The difference is your neurological threshold. Some brains are incredibly sensitive to this signal clash and hit the panic button immediately. Other people have a much higher threshold and their brains ignore the mismatched signals so they never feel sick.
4. How To Fix It?
You can use a simple neurological trick. Stop looking at the inside of the car and stare out the front window at the distant horizon. This forces your eyes to see the movement that your ears are already feeling. When the two signals match again your brain turns off the poison alarm and the nausea slowly fades away.

We grew up believing that politics was a dirty game and somehow allowed the ‘hoodlums’ we knew in school occupy political seats and we the supposed ‘good’ ones are at their mercy.
We are the biggest fools. Evil thrives because good people say and do nothing
That Prince Adeyemi man said he paid 400 million ($285,000) out a 600 million ($429,000) deal with Gbaja
The man also alleged that Gbaja asked for 48% of any grant given to the agency.
How is this not making media headlines??
The fact Airbnb is losing revenue isn’t shocking to me . Once hosts started pricing the same or more than hotels didn’t make sense . I rather stay at the hotel with daily housekeeping and room service if that’s the case .
If two people start a company and one contributes 90% of the capital while the other contributes just 10%, when the business starts struggling, who do you think is more likely to walk away first? Exactly, Now apply that same principle to your relationships
