The Learned Oracle from Polobubo: Asoki Government Dickson Jacob



Edited by Prince Agbedeyi O. D.

"From chasing chalk in Minyen to chasing justice in Law School, one man has consistently given the Nigerian legal system a reason to smile (and sometimes laugh)."


In the river-kissed community of Polobubo (Tsekelewu), where the only things that flowed more than the river were fish stories and political debates, a child was born. His parents named him Asoki Government Dickson Jacob, and little did they know, he would grow up to become one of the sharpest legal minds ever exported from the creeks—armed with books, wit, and an undying love for courtroom drama.



📚 The Education of a Future Legal General

  • Minyen Primary School, Polobubo:
    Here, young Asoki first tasted academic success—and also the sharp end of a chalk when he talked too much in class. It was at Minyen he learned how to argue with teachers and escape punishment with technicalities. Classic future lawyer behavior.

  • Isaba Grammar School & Iwere College, Koko:
    As a secondary school student, Asoki was already lawyering up. He once defended a classmate accused of stealing akara by quoting the school’s code of conduct (which didn’t exist). His classmates hailed him “Barrister Akara” for weeks.

  • Diploma in Law, Ambrose Alli University:
    This was where the transformation began. Asoki learned that "mens rea" wasn’t a Latin insult and that "habeas corpus" wasn’t something you order at a roadside canteen. He also discovered that legal textbooks are the best sleeping pills on earth.

  • LL.B, Western Delta University, Oghara:
    Now deep in legal waters, Asoki's confidence grew. He argued with his lecturers, challenged exam questions, and once cross-examined his invigilator for sneezing too loud. A real courtroom prodigy.

  • LL.M, Benson Idahosa University:
    At this point, our legal giant had developed a reputation. His classmates called him "The Precedent," because he always had a case to cite—even when discussing hostel curfews or football matches.

  • B.L (In View), Nigerian Law School:
    Today, he stands on the brink of the Bar—Nigeria’s legal finishing school. He’s now surrounded by thousands of aspiring lawyers who all fear the same monster: Bar Finals. But Asoki? He faces it like a true Polobubo son—with courage, jokes, and a flask of coffee stronger than any cross-examination.


😂 Courtroom Chronicles & Comedy from the Creeks

  • When Law Met Laughter:
    At Ambrose Alli, Asoki once referred to "The Law of Tort" as "The Law of Tortoise." When corrected, he argued that both were slow and caused pain. His lecturer laughed so hard, he passed him.

  • Mock Trial Madness:
    During a moot court session, Asoki raised an objection to his own submission, saying, “Even I don’t believe this argument, my lord.” The judge clapped.

  • Call to Bar Confusion:
    A cousin once asked him: “So you’re going to the bar?”
    He replied: “Yes, but unfortunately, not the one with chilled drinks.”


⚖️ Why Asoki Is a Living Legend

From his roots in Polobubo to the lecture halls of Oghara and Benin City, Asoki Government Dickson Jacob is more than a law student — he’s an experience. He carries with him the soul of the Niger Delta, the voice of Egbema justice, and the kind of humor that makes even dry statutes sound like bedtime stories.

He inspires young minds not just with intellect, but with his relatability, resilience, and rare ability to make the legal world seem less terrifying and more... human.


💬 Final Word from the Editor

At Egbema Egberi Media International, we don't just celebrate titles. We celebrate journeys — muddy paths, sun-beaten exam halls, fish pepper soup on budget, and sleepless nights with the Nigerian Constitution as pillow.

Asoki represents a new generation of leaders — brave, brilliant, and blessed with a touch of madness that only great lawyers possess.

Long may he argue! Long may he win! And may his wig never fall off in public.
