17 years ago, about this day, I took my oath for the first time to be a lawyer. I bound myself to the Law, and I haven't looked back. I was called to the Nigerian Bar. To define my career as a roller-coaster would be apt, as in those 17 years, my career has spanned 3 continents, across wildly differing areas of law, from Criminal Law to Corporate Governance. The best gift I have experienced over the years is the gift of people. Intelligence and hardwork will only take you so far, but it is the ones who believe in us, who pour reality into our dreams. I am grateful for the people, particularly women, who have supported me and continue to help me grow. Some of these women are sistahs from the Black Female Lawyers Network , who gifted me a community when I moved back to Canada in 2017. This is why I am excited to be attending BFLN's 18th Annual Retreat, holding next Monday, and to be in the midst of some of the greatest legal minds in Canada. (Tickets here: https://lnkd.in/eXbKttTM ) Cheers to 17 years 🥂 ... and rooting for 77 more. 😊
