But speaking to TheCable on Saturday, Deborah Okezie said s
I just hired the lawyers to seek justice for his son, Don Davis.
i knew about the document served to the institution by her solicitors but didn’t know about the compensation.She narrated: “
People said I should get a lawyer and I did. What I want is justice for Don Davis. Leave lawyer and that English he wrote. If the lawyer left that to look for N100 million, I didn’t open my mouth to ask for it.
If I want damages, it’s not N100 million. What is N100 million when my child will be jumping out of bed (shocked) in the middle of the night? That’s what I’m saying. You (the lawyer) should have read it to my hearing.
You don’t have the right to just write it. Even if I can’t read legal documents, there are those close to me who can. It’s not yet time to ask for money.
It came as a surprise to me.
