DO NOT Study Law In Nigeria 🇳🇬. Here Is Why

[@kayodeadelabu8135]

I rarely comment on public platforms but would like to chip in some few points. I can totally relate with your experience in practice and won't fault your conclusions. I guess you were part of the "I must do litigation crew" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. However, my two cents. Law practice is not based on just litigation. Many aspects of practice are springing up and practitioners (including students) can move into these areas to develop their skills and expertise. I did litigation for a year (Nysc) and moved into a commercial firm thereafter. The major problem we have in Nigeria is the resultant effect of demand and supply. The legal market is so small that viable opportunities are so limited. For current law students, my counsel is to ensure they graduate with a very strong cgpa in their undergrad and law school. Secondly, find a niche you like and tailor your strengths into that (gone are the days of know-it-all). Embrace technologies and don't be afraid to explore non-conventional areas. Lastly, place God at the centre of your plans. Whether in Nigeria or outside, law practice is no joke and it takes a deep conviction to remain in the profession. I have been working in the media, technology and telecommunications industry for close to a decade. The skills and experience I have are easily transferable regardless of the country I move to. Do I have to write the bar exams there? Of course, but I won't be starting from ground zero.

[@TochiEsther]

You are quite correct. Thanks for your contribution

[@angelbertnde66]

Good advice ! At least a touch of optimism from the main post. Can you tell us about the "non conventional areas"?

[@Abdullah-eb9xt]

Good day sir, please as a law student, which aspect of law do you think has a better prospect in a country like Nigeria

[@kayodeadelabu8135]

@@Abdullah-eb9xt Commercial practice will always remain a viable practice as long as businesses continue to exist and thrive. Now, my counsel is to examine the different sectors (businesses in and outside of Nigeria), look at the prospects of that business and narrow interests. For instance, so long as Intercontinental trade continue to exist, maritime law will always be relevant. Secondly, conventional banking is being replaced by ebanking, e money platforms (flutterwave, paga etc), that's another area you can focus on. Real estate is a good practice too and positions you for different opportunities. Wealth management (portfolio management) is another area that continues to develop. Risk management is another aspect of commercial practice. Data Protection is fast becoming a big deal in and out of Nigeria. Oil and Gas practice is there too. Taxation is huge too. So in all, just review the different areas of commercial law and chose the one that suits you best.

[@kayodeadelabu8135]

@@angelbertnde66 I'm just seeing your message. Non conventional practice are those evolving areas of law. Data Protection, risk management, portfolio management, EV engineering/industry, e-businesses etc. The potentials continue to grow and my belief that a practitioner should acquire transferable and marketable skills. I've since moved to a conglomerate comprising businesses in the automotive, infrastructure, health and pharmaceuticals industries.

Nothing is a waste, but go with your passion and what you love. The problem with Nigerians is that many end up doing what their family or parents want them to do, many have missed it. If you are abroad or plan to immigrate, be aware that your profession does not count. I have seen IT professionals earn much more then lawyers, Doctors, I have seen Top nurses and Doctors earn so much. Law in the UK is very competitive you need to know your stuff exceptionally, the good thing they specialise.

[@darlingtonegbu7391]

Hello Tochi, I understand your point and, probably, your frustration. Law is one of the most flexible programs or courses of study in a university, because after graduation, you can do anything with the degree. BUT studying law in a country restricts one to practice only in that country, because every country has its own (her Own) legal system. Engineering and medicine are unique in that you are taught the same thing everywhere in the world. With some countries like the USA, foreign medical doctors are re-tested and re-licensed so as to practice in the country. For the legal practitioners, it's a bit different due to the different legal systems that nations operate. You schooled in Nigeria, but, probably, did not know your future spouse would take you abroad. Femi Gbajabiamila, former Speaker of the Nigeria's House of Representatives, had a law degree from the University of Lagos. When he moved to the Atlanta area, in the USA, he had to go back to school to prepare himself to pass the Law Board in the State of Georgia, USA. So also, was Ovie Omo-Agege, the last Senate Deputy President, who had a law degree from the University of Benin, only to go back to school to brush up for the law exam and licensure at Tulane University in Louisiana, USA. Unfortunately for these men, they brought their corruption mentality from Nigeria, and into their legal practice into the USA. That resulted into the revocation of their licenses, thereby forcing them to return to Nigeria. You are based in the UK. In the USA, you could venture into Real Estate and other professions with little preparations. I thought UK and Nigeria has about similar legal structure, what happened? Of course, having children and going to school is not easy, probably that could be why.

[@damilolaidowu2716]

Can I reach out to you please?

[@darlingtonegbu1041]

Tochi Esther, I beg make you no vex. You are right; the law profession is a very good profession; but it requires you to practice in the country where you trained/studied. I met a man in the USA who just came in through a law firm sponsorship. I got introduced to him by a Kenyan friend. After exchanging greetings with him, he introduced himself, and told me how he came into the USA. He stated that he was a Prosecutor for 20 years in Lagos. I tried to be nice to him by trying to advice him about the differences between the legal systems in Nigeria and the USA. Even though I am in the health profession, I felt of helping him out, by advising him about law in the USA. This man took offence, and claimed to have worked extensively in the legal field in Nigeria. He rejected my advise. Less than five months after, I met him again at the same Kenyan friend's work place. Mere looking at his face, I knew that things were not right because he looked dejected. I inquired from him how the job was going. He told me that he was no more with the law firm. I simply said ok, and did not ask why. Later my Kenyan friend to me that he lost the job, because, per the Firm, he was a "bad lawyer". This is a man who refused to listen to my advise. The Law Profession is unique, and is based on the legal system of where you were trained. So, Tochi, again you are right by showing you frustration. I beg stop "vexing".

[@darlingtonegbu1041]

Tochi Esther, I understand your story and frustration. Law is a noble profession, but the downside of it is that if you studied law in a country, what they teach you is the legal system of that country. That makes it very difficult to leave that environment for another in terms of securing a job; unlike some other professions like Medicine, Pharmacy, Nursing, Computer Science, Engineering, to mention just a few, where you only need some basic transition. The options most lawyers have is to go back to school and get retrained on the legal system of their new or host country, or, go to Nursing School, because nurses are in very high demand everywhere, and with reasonable pay. Here in the USA, most nurses are on the six figure salary range yearly.

Nigerian Nurses and doctors now have the opportunity to get jobs abroad but it was not always like this and may change at any time.

I am indeed perturbed by this narration. I want to humbly say here that you must not take everything said in this video "hook Line and sinker." The first thing I want you to know is that the Legal profession is a noble profession. Secondly, the legal profession is not for lazy person. Thirdly, the legal profession is one of the rare profession where you have ample opportunity to delve into many branches. Also, the Legal profession is one profession that you can call the shots when you bargain with a client. Every lawyer should know his worth. I am a Lawyer. I have been in practice for just few years(9yrs) and I am proud to stand tall even among my contemporaries. The issue of poor salary is not only Peculiar to Legal profession. Some Doctors earn poor salaries as well. Some Bankers/accountants equally earn poor salaries too and getting engaged in a Job is even difficult just like in legal profession. In law practice, you have varieties of field you can move to. As a new wig, you can start with 'Tenancy matter,' you can add 'Bail at court and Police station.' You can gradually progress into 'Property Sale and Buying for Clients.' Property business in law is one of the most viable or lucrative part of law. You can make Millions in one Sale. My dear, don't let anyone downplay your interest in Legal profession. You just have to create a name for yourself. At the end, you will be overloaded with clients to the extent that you have to choose what Job you want to do. Within my few years of practice, I am on my third car. I have my house by the grace of God. Go and witness what young Lawyers are achieving in their practice; you will be amazed. Although just like every profession, it not all ROSSY, because Rome was not built in a day, but with Determination, dedication, passion, strong drive, "people that know you will introduce you to people to know you." Don't be discouraged. Remember, in Law school they say," The sky is not your limit." It means, you can go on and on and on. Wishing you good luck.

I feel like crying watching this video. This is the story of my like. My nieces and nephews will never make that same mistake. I will ensure that as long as I am alive.

Nigerians create their own hardships, when you have a country where people do not want to pay to maintain roads, hospitals, schools and court systems - then this is the result. The 1% will always have money and take care of themsleves in their heavily guarded compounds and the rest will brain drain Nigeria and leave for other pastures to make a living, On the flip side Law is a transferrable skill. I have seen Nigerian lawyers make it here in the UK. Agreed the new QLTS exams are expensive, but with the right mentoring and direction from a UK based Nigerian there are jobs for lawyers, you just need to get your foot through the door,.

Hi I am currently studying law in the uk and i am in my final year and i am in a state of confusion, whether to do my bar in Nigeria or do the LPC/ BPC or maybe switch career.?

[@julietanasi4361]

😂😂😂😂 I’m sorry. I know this is a serious video and I’m not supposed to laugh, but I couldn’t help it.

[@tastyfoodevents5322]

This is really pathetic N20k for a month. Can that 20k even cover your transport and lunch for a month?

[@TochiEsther]

Very pathetic my dear

[@orevajoy2053]

Hello dear

[@njokuoluomachi7885]

Hi love,

[@njokuoluomachi7885]

That’s to say that your current employment is not law related

[@ChySpace]

I honestly used to think that law sales abroad too. Nigeria is just a different world when it comes to Jo hunt. I experienced shits job hunting in Lagos Nigeria.

[@TochiEsther]

It’s really frustrating my dear but it’s well.

[@davidamen7747]

You can easily get law jobs abroad only if you study Law in that country. Unlike Nigeria lawyers abroad specialize so it's way broader than Nigeria law

[@darlingtonegbu7391]

[@liquorice478]

Do you think that opening your own practice is better

[@katekendall3101]

Please dont break down is just one of those things in life we win some and loss some is a lesson for all. Is project management a global professional?

[@TochiEsther]

[@_dorisonah4191]

Is studying psychology in Nigeria profitable? Please I need an answer guys

[@prettybola6782]

Pls i need answers, can anyone who study law or practice law do politics.

[@onyedikapromise6416]

I am glad a relative of mine talked me out of taking a course in law. All these, he pointed out to me. By the way, this video should be entitled "The Crucifixion of Law As a Faculty" instead.😂😂😂
