Go listen to me yap unconvincingly about carbon credits, mangroves, and energy sustainability and why they are even in the same sentence to begin with.

@GRVlagos Rhodes Vivour has my vote 🗳, because we've left so much on the table in the last 27 years and in that time they've failed to do the bare minimums.
One of the biggest advantages you can have in any field is being able to move fast. Not rushed. Not careless. Fast.
That kind of speed compounds.
The person who can do good work in a few hours will eventually have a very different life from the person who needs a few days.
@DanielRegha How do you change a failed or old system that no longer serves?
You do that by building a new parallel system that makes the old one obsolete.
Let me tell you about the picture in Frame 1.
In August 2017, as a litigation lawyer in Lagos, I had work to do that required me to be at the office during the weekend.
There was only one problem that weekend.
I had a 16 months old son, no nanny and no one to leave him with at home so I asked my boss if I could bring him with me and she was gracious enough to agree. While I was working, my son fell asleep and I had to lay him down on the floor beside my table.
In that moment, I took a picture of him sleeping and made a promise to myself that if I ever had my own firm, at some point in that journey, no woman working with me who had a caregiver emergency and needs to be at work will have to lay her baby on the floor.
That same day, I thought of my struggles as a breastfeeding mother in the workplace and promised again that no woman working with me who had a baby will ever have to struggle for a private space to use her breast pump at work, relieve her aching breast to focus and save some quality milk for her baby.

Today, we finished the renovation of our office building complete with a nursing room.
Litigation is tough for women.
The firm should not make it tougher.
Strichland LP has a nursing room and today, by the grace of God, I kept that promise.

$20 billion in remittances every year. Massive spending during holiday seasons. Clear interest in investing back home.
Yet our tourism infrastructure still struggles. Diaspora Nigerians, what would make you invest in Nigeria's hospitality sector? What are the real blockers?
I need your help!!
