My first solo appearance was before Justice Bolaji Candido Johnson of the Lagos High Court. My principal in my chambers asked me to appear in court to ask for an ajournment.

I can say it confidently that the training in Law School helped me a lot. During my studies at the Law School, I had appeared in court with other senior lawyers to move a similar application. so, I picked up the file, studied it and appeared in court.

When the matter was called, I announced my appearance and ask for an ajournment. The court granted my request.

It was so easy for me because I had participated in several courts preceedings and practiced on several occasions in my moot trial exercise at the Law School.
