Garrick has been a leader as long as I have known him. He is drawn to people and they equally gravitate towards him because of his vulnerability and confidence. He has led exceptionally at every stage of his life for as long as I have known him and has amassed a great deal of friends and well-wishers. His public speaking prowess is noteworthy and lends itself to his spoken word delivery. He is a great guy to have in your corner all around.

Graham Garrick Nosa is wonderful to work with and has exceptional expertise in leadership; motivation and coaching. I rarely come across real talents who stand out like him. I had the pleasure of working and studying closely alongside and with Garrick at Olisa Agbakoba Legal. We collaborated on several projects. His ability to handle multiple projects was unlike any I have seen before and i was always in awe of his ability to command a room and get people on board with ideas – even people who were initially on completely different pages. Garrick is quick to take on new responsibilities without neglecting existing tasks He made our department an enviable one in the office and our joint tasks were completed in little or no time because of his industry and to do spirit . Garrick also doubles as a poet and astute orator. His mastery of words and choice of language are exceptional. Additionally, Garrick is a great person and a man of the people. Having left the office to pursue his academic goals in Durham, UK, his role hasn't been filled and his absence has been felt deeply, particularly, by me. I am sure anyone who has interacted with Garrick can attest to this fact and any employer or institution will be lucky to have him as a part of their team. He earns my highest recommendation and would be an asset to any establishment.

Not so many persons share the rare qualities of Garrick. Most aptly defined as an intelligent lawyer, a brilliant millennial, a charismatic leader, an orator extraordinaire, a goal getter, an awesome planner and an exotic gentleman. On these attributes, you can take a nap with a task on his hands and still be certain of well finished job. His charming personality makes interpersonal relationship as easy as air and in a team of any number, he is likely to stand out and give the "Midas touch" I recommend him to any organizations as I am confident in his ability and stand as a testament of his past deed.
