Congratulations To An Excellent Public Speaker, Advocate, And, Indeed, The Best Attorney General Nigeria Has Seen In Ages!

Moyo and Sanwolu

In 2019, the Lagos State government in Nigeria needed another astute legal luminary to assume the mantle of its top legal custodian and crusader. On August 20, 2019, that honor fell to you, Mr. Moyosore Jubril Onigbanjo SAN.

Then the Managing Partner of M.J Onigbanjo & Co., you were sworn in as the 16th Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice of Lagos State, Nigeria, and it has been a roller coaster of different events and achievements ever since.

Honestly, many are always wary and downright afraid of leaving what they’re used to and accepting significant challenges like you did. After serving as Managing Partner of M.J Onigbanjo & Co. for over 20 years, it may have been understandable if you had opted to “stick to familiar waters” by rejecting the appointment – especially seeing how volatile a state like Lagos State can be.

Never known for backing down in the face of difficulty or challenges, though, you gladly left your comfort zone and took up the enormous task of leading the Lagos State Justice Department back to a place where the residents and people of the state would be able to have absolute faith in it again.

While it hasn’t been smooth sailing all through, we must note that your penchant for excellence, exceptional litigation and arbitration skills, and superb interpersonal qualities have stood you out amongst your peers in the country and have made the Lagos State Justice Department an example that every other state has been actively striving to emulate.

This led to the honor bestowed upon you in June 2022, as you were appointed as the Chairman of the Body of Attorneys General of the States of the Federation in Nigeria. A mandate you have gracefully handled and also flourished in ever since.

An alumnus of the Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, Osun State, Nigeria, and the Harvard Law School, United States of America, Moyosore Jubril Onigbanjo SAN, FCIArb, is an experienced Nigerian lawyer with a demonstrated history of working in the law practice industry.

Hence it indeed did not come as a shock to us when the ESQ Nigerian Legal Awards honored you as the 2022 Attorney General Of The Year during their recently held awards ceremony on November 6, 2022, at the prestigious Landmark Event Centre, Oniru, Lagos State, Nigeria.

Your antecedents and present achievements speak for themselves, and none could ever “overblow” your trumpet because you are genuinely outstanding and unique in all you do.

Mgbeke Media wishes to heartily congratulate you on this latest feather added to your already well-decorated cap. We pray that God will continue to be with and guide you in all your pursuits, ways, and endeavors, in the name of Jesus Christ, amen!

Takeoff, one-third of the rap group Migos, died early Monday after being shot in Houston, TX, USA

Such as shame to lose another young person to street violence and prayer for him and his family.

Takeoff, a member of the Atlanta rap trio Migos, was wiped out in Houston on Monday, a representative confirmed to Mgbeke Media. He was 28. The rapper, whose real name was Kirshnik Khari Ball, was known for his fierce and effortlessly agile delivery and long-reaching influence on trap music. This regional subgenre would come to define modern American pop music.

Migos made up of Takeoff, his uncle Quavo, and his cousin. Offset made their swift and towering ascent to the music industry’s top in the early 2010s. While at the time, Quavo and Offset grabbed more attention—for which star they dated or which party they graced—Takeoff quickly emerged as the group’s best rapper.

The three Migos grew up together in Gwinnett County, in suburban Atlanta. In his 2018 song “I Remember,” Takeoff recalled bleak days in which he sold drugs as he watched his friends and family get locked up: “My n****s done had cases after cases / Go to places, come back, break the suitcase down in mama’s basement.”

In their spare time, the three family members started making music together. They pioneered a new version of trap music—a Southern, slow, and menacing form of hip-hop—reliant on nihilistically bare beats, rapid-fire triplet flows, and rousing, absurdist ad-libs. As the trio made a name for themselves locally—by turning up strip clubs and basement parties—they also gained a rabid following online, as regional rap extended its tendrils across blogs, forums, and early social media.

Please, say no to violence!
