What do I do at work?

I represent a wide range of clients who have suffered injuries caused by others, which have resulted in pain, suffering, inconvenience, losses and expenses. My clients have suffered accidents at work, on the highway, on private premises, in road traffic accidents and as a result of criminal assaults (CICA claims).  I represent clients throughout the UK.

What have I done?

I graduated with a degree in Linguistics and African Languages from the University of Benin, Nigeria. I then did a year of compulsory service in the National Youth Service Corp (NYSC).  I moved to England and obtained a Law degree in Manchester, and successfully completed the Legal Practice Course, at the College of Law, in Chester.

In 2008 I worked as a volunteer on the Inclusion and Integration through ESOL Manchester City Centre partnered project from February to September.  I taught English to women from abroad aimed at improving social inclusion, community engagement, access to services and employment opportunities.

What do I like?

I like travelling and I also like running for charity and to keep fit.  I try to combine both pleasures and in addition to 10K races in various parts of the UK I have also participated in races in Ghana, Paris and Nice.

I like socialising, dancing and sampling good food from different parts of the world.

Memberships

I am a member of a dance group called Kokoma which introduces the 'exotic' south eastern Nigerian dance to different parts so far having toured England and next stop is South Africa.
