He had a score that terrified the white principal who invited him to appear before him in Ado. Alhaji Arisekola laboured hard before he could gather transport fare to Ado Ewi. The white principal was shocked on seeing a gaunt-looking speck-like creature with tribal marks. Are you ' Alao AZEEZ? The boy responded with Ibadan laced voice ' my name is Asisi Alao Arishekola ' ' Are you a relation of any of our staff?

Will Justice Fawehinmi rest in Peace? MY ENCOUNTER WITH LATE JUSTICE RASHEED FAWEHINMI! GBOBO FAWEHINMI LIBRARY, LAJE ROAD, ONDO If the criteria of a dead man to rest in peace in heaven is his positive contributions, a high percentage of good deeds on earth over his misdeeds, then Justice Rasheed Fawehinmi, the great son of the greatest ALIJONU of Ondo fame will certainly rest in peace and be with Allah in Aljaena! I had an evergreen encounter with the late Justice Rasheed Fawehinmi after he retired gracefully from the Bench in 1986.

Ondo Town christened Gbobo Fawehinmi Library for public use. Having left Ondo State College of Arts and Science in 1984 with 9 points and unable to secure the admission of my choice to a University, I joined my mum who was with anti-Folake ( Bra Dir

Presidency : Why the South Should not have it now? By Dare Adeleke It is high time we told ourselves some honest truths. There is no other crucial time as now to be very frank about our existence as a nation and the anomalies along the way on our bumpy journey of nationhood. It is a fact that 10 out of 16 leaders of Nigeria till date are or were northerners. The south has had 6 including Ernest Shonekan whose tenure was an interim headship of government and only lasted a few months before he was 'forced' to hand over to General Sanni Abacha. It is pertinent to note that one of the reasons why President Goodluck Jonathan was ousted was because the north felt it had to complete it's tenure, with the fact that Ex-President Umaru Yar'Adua did not complete his term having passed on, unfortunately, while in power.

How Clarion Chukwurah charmed and seduced me in 1987. Encounter with Clarion Chukwura! My first female film love By Wale Ojo Lanre cica2018 My first film is Star Love! Patty Boulaye was to be my first but I did not like her too sophisticated style, too English. Too polished with a lot of cosmetics. I put her in the Second category after watching her in Bisi, the daughter of the River, a film sponsored by the late MKO Abiola one evening at Esso Cinema, Ondo, in 1987 the late Tunde Ogunmola invited me to watch a film, 'Owo lagba'' "Money Power " a political film which showcased the influence and consequences of monetised politics featuring Shina Peter, Ola Omoniyi, alias Ajimajasan and one damsel, Clarion Chukwura. Shina was the catch. The young guitar master dabbled into acting. As the film progresses with the entry of Clarion into the motion, my heart fell for her. Her figure, green beauty and virgin look seduced and charmed me to the marrows. See pris

Has Ayo Arise committed a political suicide ? By Wale Ojo - Lanre I have just driven through the Federal University, Oye - Ekiti I saw many beautiful buildings which have added value of great immense to a once dreaded jungle inhabited by fauna and flora I saw thousands of students roaming and engaging in educational activities Most of these students are none native of Oye, nor Ekiti. People who were drafted or pulled from their different states and cities of the Federation to hibernate or sojourn in a hitherto and relatively unknown sleepy town of Oye Ekiti by the singular reason of locating a Federal Institution. I could also see some foreign students and lecturers who could have not or may not have stepped the soil of Oye if not because of the school As I drove out of the beautiful Campus, I could see different buildings in different forms being inhabited and occupied by these students I also remember that two of my friends and a brother from Usi Ekiti acquired parcels of land

No VP Pact - Mimiko Inundated with calls from friends and associates about a story in The Telegraph of Tuesday 4th of January, 2022, Dr Olusegun Mimiko has denied any meeting to discuss a phantom vice-presidential ambition and some other false permutations as reported in The Telegraph about his person. In a statement signed by John Paul Akinduro, his Special Assistant on Media and Digital Communications, the immediate past Ondo Governor said the permutations are all false and do not represent his interest and position on the political reality of the PDP as Nigeria coasts home to the 2023 election. The Telegraph had reported that Governor Aminu Tambuwal and Mimiko met in Abuja recently where the decision to pair up as presidential and vice presidential aspirants were muted. Mimiko in the statement said no such meeting was held and so no such a proposal could have been considered. "Dr Mimiko is aligned with the aspiration of the people of Southern Nigeria as exemplified by t
