I'm building a career spanning both Nigerian and English jurisdictions. Having been called to the Nigerian Bar and the English Bar, I hold a unique and formidable experience and expertise that seamlessly integrates the intricacies of international environmental law, international human rights, and arbitration. My commitment to excellence is underscored by my specialised training in arbitration with the prestigious Chartered Institute of Arbitrators (CIArb) London, where I honed my skills in arbitration. Armed with a Bachelor of Laws (LLB) from Nnamdi Azikiwe University and a Master of Laws (LLM) from Rivers State University, I further enriched my intellectual arsenal by undertaking the Critical Reasoning course at Oxford University Department for Continuous Education. My professional journey is marked by significant achievements, including the successful challenge of banks for negligent breach of contracts, facilitating various settlements for my clients in different challenging cases, and representing a client as counsel in a domestic (Nigeria) arbitration relating to a crude oil facility lease. My legal skills are particularly evident in my substantial involvement in numerous oil spillage cases, including those currently unfolding in the English courts against industry giants such as Shell PLC and SPDC. In the pursuit of excellence, I have collaborated with esteemed Senior Advocates of Nigeria (the equivalent of Kings Counsel) on various high-profile cases. Furthermore, my commitment to continuous learning and exposure to international legal practices is exemplified by my experience shadowing an English Judge and shadowing a few distinguished Kings Counsel. These experiences have fortified my resolve to build an exemplary legal practice both in Nigeria and the United Kingdom. Known for my adept handling of complex, challenging, and technical litigation and arbitration, I thrive under pressure, consistently delivering outcomes that exceed expectations. My passion for these intricate legal matters not only showcases my intellectual acumen but also underscores my dedication to pushing the boundaries of legal advocacy. My multifaceted legal background, coupled with my unwavering commitment to justice, positions me as a preeminent legal professional poised to make indelible contributions to my clients and the continuous development of Law
