The ‘IT’ Factor with Olugbenga Ajala.
<p>In this episode of OnPeople, we sit down with Olugbenga Ajala, Partner at Wiseview Legal Consultancy and a dispute resolution expert with years of experience in litigation and arbitration.</p><p>But this conversation goes far beyond law.</p><p>Olugbenga walks us through his journey to becoming a Partner at Wiseview, the responsibility, the structural shifts, and the intentional rebranding required to position the firm for long term growth. He shares what it really takes to move from contributor to decision maker, and how systems, standards, and clarity become non-negotiable at that level.</p><p>We also explore a pressing concern in the legal industry: the quality of emerging talent. From communication gaps to preparedness in the workplace, Olugbenga speaks candidly about the challenges he sees in young law graduates today and what must change for the profession to maintain excellence.</p><p>The conversation becomes even more personal as he reflects on discipline, faith, and leadership by example, from his commitment to worship to showing up at the office by 7 am. For him, leadership isn’t loud. It’s consistent. It’s visible. It’s lived daily.</p><p>If you’re interested in leadership, building strong professional standards, developing talent, and understanding what it truly takes to rise in demanding industries, this is a conversation worth sitting with.<br>--------<br>Visit www.thepeoplepractice.io</p><p>Follow us on<br>X: x.com/ThePeoplePract<br>Instagram: instagram.com/thepeoplepractice.io<br>LinkedIn: linkedin.com/company/the-people-practice-africa</p>

The Evolution of Radio with Mrs Doja Allen
<p>In this episode of OnPeople, we sit down with Mrs. Doja Allen, a transformative force in Nigerian media and one of the few women leading at the very top of radio broadcasting. With a career that spans finance, operations, and creative leadership, Doja has built a reputation for turning vision into structure and ideas into thriving enterprises.</p><p>She takes us through her journey from working with the BBC and Telecom Express, to returning to Nigeria to work with ARM Investment Managers, and eventually stepping fully into media leadership. Today, as the leader of City 105.1 FM, one of Lagos’ most vibrant, youth-driven radio stations, she’s redefining what modern radio looks like in a digital-first world. Under her leadership, City FM has become a home for young voices, fresh ideas, and programming that blends entertainment with purpose.</p><p>The conversation goes deeper as Doja reflects on leadership behind the scenes being the “fixer,” building systems that actually work, and balancing analytical precision with people-centred decision-making. She shares what it takes to lead creative teams, stay relevant in a rapidly evolving media landscape, and invest intentionally in the next generation through the City Media Academy, where she trains and mentors future broadcasters and content creators.</p><p>If you are interested in leadership, media, building sustainable organisations, or what it really takes to run creative businesses at scale, this is a conversation worth sitting with.</p><p>———<br>Visit www.thepeoplepractice.io</p><p>Follow us on:<br>X: x.com/ThePeoplePract<br>Instagram: instagram.com/thepeoplepractice.io<br>LinkedIn: linkedin.com/company/the-people-practice-africa</p>

Finding Expression with MC Lively
<p>In this episode of OnPeople, we have a conversation with Michael Sani, better known as MC Lively, one of Nigeria's most recognisable comedy voices. From his humble beginnings as a church altar server who discovered his gift for making people laugh at age seven, to creating the iconic "Agidi" character that made millions laugh on Instagram, MC Lively opens up about the raw, unfiltered journey of building a comedy career from scratch.<br>He shares how his law background (and a degree he earned "by the skin of his teeth") shaped his perspective, the pivotal moment at OAU's Odudua Hall that proved he could make people laugh on a large scale, and why law school in Yenagoa became his "last hurrah" to prove whether he was truly funny. He also gets vulnerable about running away from home to pursue comedy full-time, choosing instability over the safety net of legal practice, and watching lawyers earn less than what he made hosting a few events.<br>But the conversation goes deeper, MC Lively reflects on the struggle of staying relatable while evolving, the pressure to keep playing the same character that made you famous, and how losing his brother changed everything. He opens up about the exhaustion of being typecast, the loneliness of trying to express new dimensions of his talent while people kept asking for "Agidi," and what it means to keep finding new forms of expression even when the old ones made you successful.<br>If you're an artist wrestling with evolution vs. expectation, building a creative career with no roadmap, or simply believe that your gift deserves full expression — this conversation is for you.<br>———<br>Visit www.thepeoplepractice.io/<br>Follow us on:<br>X: x.com/ThePeoplePract<br>Instagram: instagram.com/thepeoplepractice.io<br>LinkedIn: linkedin.com/company/the-people-practice-africa</p>
