This is not true.
It is the constitutional right of every citizen of Nigeria to vote and be voted for.
The above includes wee corpers.
There are some citizens that can't vote and be voted, like ex convicts, but corpers are not exempted, no law exempts them from voting.
As a tenant, do not expend your money on a property without it being in writing that the landlord consents and how you are to be reimbursed if any.
I am saying this because, you can pay rent, restructure the property to your taste and the landlord would still reserve the right to terminate that tenancy for breach of tenancy.
That is, you infringed on the landlord right by altering the property substantially without his consent. Substantial alteration that is one that changes the property look is the right of the landlord and not the tenant.
Please overlook the bad takes of what comes next after law school.
After bar finals, you should be looking forward on how to complete clearance when result is out and getting called to the bar.
You shouldn't also be idle doing this, get into a law firm in your jurisdiction and stay learning even if you plan to move to a different location after call to bar.

My dear, the matter is confusing 😹
One of our medical lawyers was just addressing it and was talking about how unnecessary it is
Cos the laws exist already, the issue is poor enforcement

The best practice is as you take record identify areas for address.
When its time for address you will find that you did most of work already.

Client interview goes beyond knowing the law. Knowledge of the law is very important, so is the knowledge of human interaction.
To a client, a lawyer is not just one who goes to court for them, but they see and believe their lawyer to be one who shares their story and troubles with them. They believe that what annoys them, annoys you and what borders them, also borders you.
They must at all times feel connected with you. This is why a lawyer must show empathy to the client. Proper reactions to a client story during interview is what opens the door for truth to come out. And a lawyer is good with all the facts, and another is a way better lawyer with all the true facts.
You should master facial reactions when listening to a client.
You must not find their story funny and laugh, when it is not. And, you must know when to show empathy through your looks and what comes out of your mouth.
This is how you get a client relaxed and free to let you in on the true state of their story and not the version they think you can handle.
