  "account": "In a conversation with reporter Stan Alieke, Dr. Kayode Ajulo, the Grand Master of the Castle and Legend of Law, shares his story and wisdom with a young and aspiring lawyer. Known for his impeccable taste and dedication to excellence, Dr. Ajulo has mentored Alieke since university days when he joined Kayode Ajulo & Co., Castle of Law as an intern.\n\nDr. Ajulo's early scoldings included correcting his attire and teaching him the importance of drafting petitions, articles, and court processes with meticulous attention to detail. These lessons instilled in Alieke a passion for excellence, shaping him into a prominent lawyer today.\n\nToday, Alieke runs a thriving law practice, Law Capitol, with offices in Abuja and Lagos, and over 15 lawyers under his wing. Surprisingly, Dr. Ajulo reveals that he has no intention of retiring from private legal practice anytime soon. Despite his recent political involvement with Governor Aiyedatiwa in Ondo State, Dr. Ajulo remains committed to his first love – the practice of law.\n\nThe interviewer probes further about Dr. Ajulo's decision to step away from politics and into law full-time. Dr. Ajulo assures him that public service and political engagement are not mutually exclusive, as he has previously served in various political roles while maintaining his dedication to law. Ultimately, Dr. Ajulo's passion for the practice of law drives him, and he remains rooted in his Law Capitol practice.",
