Good Morning Colleagues, My name is ‘Tosin Ajose Popoola, I practice in Ibadan, Oyo State of Nigeria and my focus areas are Commercial Litigation, Family Law and Employment Law. I’m passionate about litigation. In summary I’m a Court Girl. I have titled today’s session 👉"Defining and Treading Your Path Timeously and Diligently” In recent times, I have referred to myself as a content creator and I have adopted a lot of techniques in creating my contents, one of those techniques is storytelling, so permit me to tell a short story. I was called to the bar in November, 2012. After the call, I was clueless, I didn’t know what I wanted out of the profession or where I wanted to go. I just wanted to be a successful lawyer!

Hey People! It’s the Season of Love😍😍 and we are accordingly moving with the Season. This morning, we bring you a 👑Gift: Gift of Love: Deed of Gift. What is a Gift? A Gift is the absolute transfer of one’s right over a property to another for emotional consideration, such as, love affection etc. This is it, remember that if you intend to sell ehmm…let’s take a plot of land for example, you may elect to sell to Ms. Buyer who pays XYZ amount. The XYZ amount is the consideration. Whereas where a Gift is made, no money or tangible resources is paid by the person receiving it.
