**THE UNFORGETTABLE GLAM: A STORY OF STYLE, GRACE, AND JUSTICE AMINA AUGIE**

Let me paint a picture for you. You ever walk into someone’s space and instantly feel the weight of their presence? That commanding aura that screams success, dignity, and class without them having to utter a single word? Yeah, that’s Justice Amina Augie in a nutshell. And let me tell you something—this woman doesn’t just sit on the bench; she *owns* it.

### **WHO IS JUSTICE AMINA AUGIE?**

For those who don’t know her—and shame on you if you don’t—Justice Amina Augie is more than just a name. She’s an icon. A trailblazer. The kind of woman who makes history while looking incredibly good doing it. Retired last year at 70 after serving as a Supreme Court judge—a position she earned through grit, brains, and sheer determination. Not handed to her. Earned.

And here I am, your Pinky Prof, walking into her home in Abuja with my daughter Chinny during SALAH fasting. Let me set the scene: serene environment, calm energy, and then BOOM—Justice Amina walks in like royalty. Still sharp as a razor blade, still carrying herself with the grace of someone who knows exactly who they are and what they’ve accomplished. Respect.

### **THE GIFT THAT KEPT ON GIVING**

Now, here’s where things get interesting. As soon as we stepped foot into her house, this incredible woman—this LEGEND—hands me a gift. A boubou. Now, full disclosure: when she first handed it to me, I wasn’t expecting much. To be brutally honest, I thought, “Eh, another boubou? Really?” Don’t get me wrong—I appreciate gifts, but let’s face it, boubous aren’t exactly my go-to vibe. Too traditional, too flowy, too…well, boring (or so I thought).

But then I unfolded it. And blimey, was I wrong.

This wasn’t just any boubou. This was a masterpiece. A work of art. The fabric shimmered like liquid gold under the light, intricate patterns woven together with such precision that it felt like holding a piece of history in my hands. It wasn’t just clothing—it was a statement. A declaration of elegance, power, and timeless beauty.

I put it on immediately because why wouldn’t I? And guess what? It fit like a dream. Like it was made specifically for me. My daughter Chinny couldn’t stop staring, and trust me, she doesn’t hand out compliments lightly. She said, “Mom, you look…different. Better.” Coming from her, that’s high praise.

### **WHY THIS MOMENT MATTERS**

Here’s the thing about moments like these: they remind us of the importance of connection, gratitude, and style. Justice Amina didn’t have to give me anything. She could’ve simply welcomed us, shared stories over tea, and sent us on our way. But no—she went above and beyond. Why? Because that’s who she is. Generous. Thoughtful. Class personified.

And let’s talk about the symbolism of that outfit for a second. A boubou isn’t just fabric draped over your body—it’s culture, heritage, identity. By gifting me this piece, Justice Amina wasn’t just giving me something to wear; she was sharing a part of herself. Her story. Her legacy. That’s powerful stuff right there.

It also reminded me of something important: never judge a book by its cover. Or in this case, never underestimate the power of a boubou. What seemed ordinary turned out to be extraordinary. Life lesson right there. Always stay open-minded, Pinky Prof tribe. Always.

### **LIFE LESSONS FROM JUSTICE AMINA AUGIE**

If you’re reading this and thinking, “Cool story, but how does it apply to me?” Let me break it down for you:

1. **Never Underestimate Anyone:** Justice Amina may be retired, but her influence and impact are far from over. Age doesn’t define relevance. Neither does status. Keep pushing forward, no matter where you are in life.

2. **Style Is More Than Clothes:** True style comes from confidence. From knowing who you are and owning it. Whether you’re rocking a three-piece suit or a flowing boubou, carry yourself like you mean business.

3. **Gratitude Changes Everything:** Receiving that gift taught me the value of appreciation. When someone gives you something—not because they have to, but because they want to—you better show some respect. Say thank you. Mean it.

4. **Legacy Lives On:** Justice Amina’s career speaks for itself, but her generosity and thoughtfulness ensure her legacy extends beyond the courtroom. Be intentional about the mark you leave on others.

5. **Stay Humble:** Despite all her achievements, Justice Amina remains grounded. She didn’t need to impress us with grand gestures or flashy displays. Her actions spoke louder than words ever could.

### **MY DAUGHTER CHINNY’S TAKEAWAY**

Watching my daughter interact with Justice Amina was priceless. Here’s this young girl, soaking up wisdom and inspiration from one of the greatest minds in Nigerian legal history. Chinny saw firsthand what true greatness looks like—not arrogance, not ego, but quiet strength and unshakable integrity.

And let me tell you, seeing her reaction to the boubou made my day. Younglings notice everything. They see authenticity. They recognize effort. If Chinny walked away from that visit inspired, then mission accomplished.

### **FINAL THOUGHTS: THANK YOU, JUSTICE AMINA AUGIE**

To Justice Amina Augie, I say this: thank you. Thank you for being an example of excellence. Thank you for welcoming us into your home with open arms. And most importantly, thank you for the unforgettable gift. That boubou will forever hold a special place in my heart—not just because of how stunning it is, but because of what it represents.

Life is too short to blend into the background. Whether you’re ruling the courtroom or rocking a boubou, do it with purpose. Do it with passion. Do it like Justice Amina Augie.

Stay sharp. Stay stylish.
Pinky Prof, your reckoning!
