According to the Obafemi Awolowo University graduate, he was offered N5,000 to work in a law company.

He revealed this in a recent interview with well-known media personality Chude Jideonwo.

“I love law so much,” MC Lively stated. I was fantastic at it. It truly appeals to me. But there was such a disconnect between what you do in school and what you do in real life. It’s really unique.

“I mean, how do I go to law school, spend so much money, and then come out as a corper, and you’re telling me you can pay me N5,000 per month?” To what end?

“No, that was quite distressing. And I recall that before I ever got that one, I had to go look for work on my own in various chambers. Before I received that one, I went to three or four chambers, and they all said, sorry, nothing they can do. This is nothing like a real job, NYSC. This is simply NYSC.

“Imagine what you’d have to go through even after you finish the NYSC and want a real job, an actual job.”
