A Nigerian law graduate now a barrister, identified as Festus Ogun has expressed worry online after he discovered that the driver of an Uber he ordered is a lawyer like himself.
The driver seems to have informed him during the ride that he is a lawyer who decided to start working as a cabman.
According to Ogun, after the trip ended, he searched for the driver on the Nigerian Bar Association portal and saw that he was a solicitor of the Supreme Court of Nigeria.
He said the fact that the lawyer resorted to driving a cab is proof things are not going the right way in the country.

The young lawyer wrote; ”My Uber driver yesterday is a lawyer. After payment, I went to search his name on NBA portal. Lo and behold, he’s a barrister and solicitor of the Supreme Court of Nigeria. It is not well.
“I am not saying a lawyer doing Uber is bad. I’m simply saying learned counsel suspended law practice to focus on Uber. It is worrying.”
