This episode starts a new miniseries where we explore what to expect in the six law school campuses as prospective law school students prepare for resumption. We start with Bayelsa campus on this episode with Tosin Abejide. She was recently called to the Nigerian Bar. She's a digital marketing enthusiast, a film and bridal makeup artist at House of Rheevo (https://houseofrheevo.com/) (her brand), and a Youtuber (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCIWfPV_dRGY5Ht06hp5S4fQ/about), vlogging about makeup, self-development, entrepreneurship, and lifestyle. When she's not juggling all her passions, she's doing legal work at the local government in Victoria Island for her NYSC and sleeping.
This episode explores what to expect if you're posted to Bayelsa Campus of the Nigerian Law School - the food, best places to have fun, things to anticipate (good and bad), how she survived Bayelsa campus, and general words of advice.

EP#50 - After Law School: Life in and out of the Bar
We started this journey June 1st, 2020, and like all good things, the show must end...at least for now. Bar Finals are behind you, and the future awaits. For our last episode this season, we interviewed Omolabake Adetunmbi, a lawyer who went down this road a long time ago. Called to the Bar in 1989, she has worn many hats over her lifetime, as a serial entrepreneur, a mediator, a realtor, and the founder of a premier legal outfitter in Nigeria, in 2000, and an author.
The discussion covers
her inspiration for founding Legal City,
her journey as a law student, while juggling motherhood
the importance of support networks,
her first experience in a criminal trial
why she left legal practice
her book on the ethics of the legal profession.
working towards specialization
PS: We recorded this episode before the start of Bar Finals, hence the reference to the Bar exams at the end
