I used to fill up my weekends with work cuz toxic productivity, see me answering emails as soon as I saw them, client meetings anytime they ask. Just working, always working! Now I relish doing nothing, it’s glorious! I live for joy and pleasure. Relaxation is me!

We are pleased that the women arrested for protesting have today been cautioned & discharged. Thanks to Sonia Osho-Williams/ Poor Man’s Legal Centre & @ILRAJ2 for their collective efforts. We hope @ClaudiusFemi will also be released/ granted bail today.
Despite being on Radical Rest week, our paralegals went to provide legal assistance to the numerous women who were arrested, protesting against cost of living increases, out of concern. They interviewed around 20 women at Ross Road police station and 20 women at Central police.

My Uncle died today from #COVID19. Had he been in a "rich" country, he would have been vaccinated by now. We are not asking for "donations". We are demanding a #TRIPSWaiver so everyone can have a fair shot at a #vaccine. It's the only way to end the pandemic. #PeoplesVaccine
"It’s time for pharmaceutical companies to fulfil their human rights responsibilities and share their knowledge and technology so that everyone in the world will have a fair shot at a #COVID19 vaccine," writes @tamarynnelson for @PharmaTimes. pharmatimes.com/web_exclusiv…

Very proud of my colleague and friend, lawyer @SimLavaly (former Executive Director of @advocaid), who has been approved as a Commissioner for the #SierraLeone Human Rights Commission.
