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.

Frame 2
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.

I'm buying a church.

I’ve made a cash offer of £225,000 to purchase this church, which was about to close and be sold off to developers.

I'm fed up with driving past all these churches in the UK that used to thrive, support the community, and feed the homeless.

Now, just look at these beautiful church buildings.

So many are boarded up, closed down, with developers queueing up to profit from converting them into flats.

I simply can't accept that a building built to glorify Jesus for generations can be turned into something solely for profit.

So I've placed an offer on a church in my hometown.

My plan is to buy it and offer it completely free of charge, with zero rent, to a church willing to worship Jesus here and serve others.

What do you think of this idea?

This young man, Ayo, CEO of Mattech Arto Limited, has a story worth telling.

Last year, as we were rounding up the house project, I started requesting quotes for painting. I must have interacted with about five companies. Then I began seeing Mattech’s painting work on my Instagram timeline. One day, I even Googled painting works, and Mattech came up.

So, I contacted their email, sent my brief, and later he chatted with me. The first thing I noticed about him, unlike others who always insisted on coming for physical inspection first, was that he asked me: “Is your architectural drawing true to what was built in terms of style and dimension?” I said yes, and he then requested my architectural drawing.

After reviewing the drawing, he asked me to send a video of how the screening was done, and then he prepared the costing.

His quote wasn’t just affordable; it was also very detailed. You could see the materials needed, their purpose, and where they would be used. A layman could understand everything. He would write the professional name and, in brackets, the common name for each item.

His painting volumes were divided by the square meters of the areas to be painted. The level of detail was impressive. I knew immediately that this was the person I wanted for the job.

I decided to ask for documentation and a guarantor. At first, he hesitated to send his details like government-issued ID and other documents I requested before commissioning the job. After waiting for days, I pressed him again, and he finally sent them. The first thing that caught my attention was his age, born in 2003, meaning he was barely 22.

I was shocked. I said, “I’m asking for the CEO’s details, the company owner, not some staff or apprentice.” He replied, “It’s me. I am the owner of the company.”

I was taken aback. I ran to his Instagram page and saw the volume and quality of work he had done. I asked, “Did you do all the work on your page, or did you steal people’s images?” He showed me contracts executed, even for hotels in Ibadan, and photos of himself supervising each project. I ran the images through AI tools, they weren’t fake.

It took me another week or two to commission him because I was skeptical that a 22-year-old could handle such a job.

He then explained that he attended technical school for secondary education, specializing in painting, and art. Since age 12, he had been painting seriously and doing artwork. After secondary school, he registered his company at 18 and has been painting professionally for the past four years.

I decided to take the risk and give him the job. The first major surprise came on the day they resumed work. He showed up with his staff, about six men who had just finished a project in Gbagada. None of them was less than 27 years old from my assessmsnt. These grown men were working under this 22-year-old!

I watched closely. He did the mixing of colors. For the grey shade I wanted for outdoor, he gave me three options. Since I couldn’t decide, he painted one side of the wall with each shade. Finally, with the help of Esther, our design queen, we chose the perfect shade, and he went to work.

While his team worked, he suggested artwork we could implement in certain areas. I agreed, paid extra, and he executed them beautifully.

He was the only contractor who completed his job without any problems, no stress, no complaints, no lies. He was professional all through.

Every time I remember Ayo, my heart is full of joy, seeing such a young man doing so well. This “small boy” you see is already a millionaire. If you see the places and contracts he handles, you’d be amazed. I am truly happy for him.

His contact on WhatsApp and phone is: [phone].

This is WRONG!
Cutting our films—Saworoide, Agogo Eewo, Ti Oluwa Nile’ Tundernolt Magun—into unauthorized reels and posting them online is not promotion. It is piracy and the destruction of our cultural work.
A film is a complete story, not fragments for quick views to make quick money illegally. This is stealing openly.

Please stop this practice and wickedness!
Support creators by watching and sharing films through the proper channels.
Let us protect, not diminish, our heritage. Stop this criminality.

*SOWORE DEFEATS THE CP AND IGP IN LAGOS COURT TODAY!*

Today’s judgment stands as a loud constitutional warning against the abuse of state power in Nigeria.

Justice M. Kakaki of the Federal High Court Lagos, has in a judgement delivered and read for one hour and thirty minutes, ruled against the Commissioner of Police of Lagos, CP Moshood Jimoh and the IGP Egbetokun in the case filed by Omoyele Sowore to challenge his being declared wanted in Lagos on the 3rd of November 2025 and awarded ₦30 million in damages against the CP and the IGP.

The court reaffirmed a fundamental truth: no Nigerian can be criminalized for speaking, protesting, or holding government accountable. Declaring a citizen wanted without lawful authority is not policing, it is oppression, and our Constitution firmly rejects it.

This victory is not merely for Omoyele Sowore but it belongs to every Nigerian who refuses to surrender freedom to intimidation.

The Court awarded ₦30 million in damages against the CP and the IGP. But let it be clearly stated: money was not the true reward of this case. The real victory lies in the profound jurisprudential value of the judgment.

In a deeply reasoned decision grounded in law and history, the Court condemned the lawlessness of the Commissioner of Police and held the Inspector-General of Police accountable for that misconduct. The Court traced the historical practice of declaring citizens wanted and made it clear that the law has evolved: only a court of law, upon issuance of a warrant, proper notice, and proof that a citizen is evading lawful process, can authorize such declaration.

The Court held that:
the pronouncement of the CP of 27 October 2025, warning Omoyele Sowore to stay away from Lagos, was arbitrary, unconstitutional, and beyond police powers.

the declaration of 3 November 2025 branding Sowore wanted was illegal, ultra vires, unconstitutional, and a grave abuse of power.

The misconduct of the Commissioner of Police, Lagos State, attracted judicial condemnation, and the Inspector-General of Police, Kayode Egbetokun, was held liable for that improper exercise of authority.

This judgment restores constitutional order.

We salute the courage of the Court for standing firmly on the side of justice, liberty, and constitutional governance. We appreciate this courage demonstrated by our court, where power bows before law and freedom prevails over intimidation.

One problem with Nigerians is the lack of will to consolidate on their gain. Nigerians must now stand up to consolidate on this historical donation by the judiciary, that asking questions is not a crime in Nigeria and that citizenship is not obedience to unlawful authority.
