Firstly, I wish to acknowledge that fate has put you in a prime position to determine to a large extent the direction that the Yoruba people will go. The indisputable truth is that one may quarrel with your politics but your sagacity is never in doubt. Even those who don't see eye to eye with you agree that you are imbued with unusual native intelligence, uncommon people skills and unrivaled foresight. You, more than any other person, has been the game changer since the advent of democracy in 1999. It is for these reasons that I have chosen to direct this letter to you. My singular purpose is to tug at the strings of your heart. I am not writing to appeal to partisan considerations but to see, if per chance, I can pour out my heart to you in a manner of speaking. God has blessed you even beyond your wi

A visit to my secondary school(Opebi Grammar School) in Lagos, I saw that our school of more than 50acre land space has been reduced to about 5acre while the remaining 45acre has been sold and use to build houses all within the awuse estate of opebi, salvation bus stop, Lagos.

Last night around 7:30pm, this time around, I didn't escape considering the gigantic log of tree placed across the road on my way back to Ibadan. Sapade is a town about 3km away from Ogere toll gate, Lagos-Ibadan Express way. It is that town before the overhead bridge to ogere when going to Lagos and after the overhead bridge when you leave ogere when coming to Ibadan.

So, when driving along this spot, please do endeavour to be watchful and never be sluggish behind the wheel and above all, it is not advisable to drive along Lagos Ibadan express way at night because every location is a death trap due to blackout from beginning to the end. Yesterday, I moved out of Lago
