@Dstoryteller_1 I started off as a lawyer during my NYSC (Yes, I did serve!😂) in Jos. I served in a private law firm but also taught Criminal Law at the Police College. So, I had two jobs and two flats. I was in money. I even started sending money home for my younger ones then. #drjoeabahstory
@Dstoryteller_1 I won my very first case as a lawyer: that of a widow that her late husband’s family wanted to take the tiny piece of land she was farming to feed the kids he left behind. I was so elated when we won. She had no money to give me but she knelt down & prayed for me. #drjoeabahstory
@Dstoryteller_1 I was doing a lot of pro bono cases and that was when I started thinking “I won’t make money from this law o.”😂 I wondered how Gani Fawehinmi made money. It took me a long time to realise it wasn’t all cases that he did for free and that he charged handsomely too.#drjoeabahstory
