What I'm looking for

I seek opportunities that challenge my legal expertise and foster professional growth.

I am a dedicated legal practitioner with extensive experience in corporate law and compliance. Currently, I serve as the Head of Legal & Company Secretary at Gadol Financial Service Limited, where I conduct legal and business research, draft essential company documents, and interface with government departments on behalf of the company. My role also involves providing general administrative services, including staff recruitment and project management, ensuring the smooth operation of the company's activities.

Previously, I held the position of Head of Legal and Corporate Affairs at HTG Limited, where I focused on reviewing legal documents and advising on regulatory compliance. My journey in law began with a solid academic foundation, earning a second class upper degree from the Nigerian Law School and the University of Uyo. I have honed my skills through internships and practical experiences in litigation, legal advisory, and corporate transactional management.

With a genuine interest in commercial law, civil litigation, and human rights, I am eager to embrace challenging opportunities that allow me to leverage my skills and contribute meaningfully to the legal field. I am an enthusiastic learner, capable of thriving under pressure and committed to delivering exceptional results.
