SQUIB DIARY
MON. 28TH APRIL, 2008
Was at the Ikeja High Court today. The Squib’s out. Cover story - 'Lucky 7. Lagos Judiciary recalls suspended workers.' Court compound, full. A typical Monday morning.
TUE. 29TH APRIL, 2008
Was in chambers in the morning. Had a titanic case at the High Court in the afternoon.
In the evening, heard strange news - Professor Jadesola Akande, former Lagos State University Vice-Chancellor was dead? Can’t be true.
WED. 30TH APRIL, 2008
Confirmed. Sad news of Mama Akande’s (Professor Jadesola Akande) death confirmed. What a shocking exit! What could have killed the amazon, just like that? Heard that she just slept and didn’t wake up again.
Was at the Sabo Magistrate Court, for a case. Prosecutor absent. Left for Ikeja High Court for an afternoon matter.
THUR. 1ST MAY, 2008
May Day Holiday. With Adekunle Ojo former NBA Ikeja Chairman and Lanre Ajanaku Esq., paid a condolence visit to the family of late Professor Jadesola Akande at her Raymond Njoku street, Ikoyi, Lagos residence.
FRI. 2ND MAY, 2008
Today again was at the house of Mama Akande. Saw a few dignitaries in the house. Saw a very dear old aunty of mine, who took it upon herself to introduce me to several judges.
The way ‘Aunty Jegs’ went about it, some innocents started eyeing me with a special respect. I, a mere 'gecko.'
