Femi Falana Finally Speaks On Why He Let His Son, Falz Leave Law For Music Posted: 03 Mar 2016 11:00 PM PST Many people may not know that Nigerian rapper, Folarin ‘Falz’ Falana is a lawyer and both his parents are also lawyers. His father, renowned lawyer and Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Femi Falana, has explained the reason why parents should allow their children choose their desired career path rather than imposing their own choice on them. According to The Leadership, Femi Falana spoke on his son’s decision to pursue music despite studying law in England, stating that Falz approached him, saying he was tired of practicing in the legal profession which as expected left him surprised. Eventually Femi Falana tried to understand the idea behind the decision, but Falz however could not get his mother to understand the idea. In conclusion, here’s Mr Femi Falana’s advice to parents on allowing their children follow their dreams. “Don’t force any course on your children; don’t insist that they must be doctors or lawyers. My son Folarin, who was working in our chambers, came to inform me one day that he wanted to leave. I said I could find him a place in one of my friends’ chambers. But he said no, ‘I’m going to be a musician’. When I asked why, he convinced me but he couldn’t convince his mother because she’s also a lawyer. Today, he’s doing well as a musician and not as a lawyer. So let’s debate with our children to know what they want to do.”

Long emotional messages are not my thing, as you will realize by the end of this looong terrible idea(an Emmanuel love letter lol), but you give me the kind of feeling that people write novels about, so I might as well try my hand at it. I know you don’t see yourself the way I see you, you can’t possibly. And you will probably argue if I told you how beautiful I think you are, inside and out. But even things you can’t stand about yourself are all the things I can’t go a day without. . Just so it doesn’t get boring I will stop here. But this doesn’t even scratch the surface of how I feel at this moment, and I hope I find ways of showing it to you. Happy birthday My Love, stay exactly the same this new year, PERFECT!@julietibrahim“

‘Without Education, She Will Not Go Far’ – Nigerians Advice Jumoke Orisaguna Posted: 03 Mar 2016 11:05 AM PST Some Nigerians. comprising of Lagosians, have given their different advice to bread seller turned model, Olajumoke Orisaguna. In separate interviews with NAN on Thursday in Lagos, read below their various thoughts on Olajumoke’s sudden fame. Miss Nneka Ibemesi, a student of the University of Lagos, said: ”No matter the amount of money, she will make from the model, she needs education to enable her know her left from right. Without education, she will not go far and as it is people are just telling her what to do, the day she demands for what she really wants, her career will end. I guess people just want to use her illiteracy to make money and gain publicity,”  Mrs Deborah Mathew said: ”Posterity will not forgive her for that because the children will see it and might emulate her and she cannot advise them because she is guilty. What example is she creating for youths like her and her environment; you can see how her boobs and thighs are showing. This is not the type of modelling we are talking about for a married woman,”  Mr Olabisi Aderibigbe, a computer engineer, said: ”The model is lucky to be seen and picked but my worry is that she does not know the terrain she has gone into. Exposing body is unAfrican, soon they will give her only pant and bra to wear and cat walk all in the name of modelling. Whatever the people that found her out are doing, they should have at the back of their minds that she is a married woman with kids. They should have the decency to choose better clothes for her,”
