How Yoruba's
kenimani'injured Arisekola Alao and Gani Adams Yoruba and its kenimani syndrome- Thinking aloud By Wale Ojo- Lanre 1 July 2017 May God bless late Chief Alhaji Alao Arisekola in Aljahna or wherever he is. He was an agrarian businessman who toiled hard to get contracts for some of the profits he spread on philanthropic public good and religious projects. He strived hard and cornered a contract to supply food to the Nigerian military ECOMOG contingent in Liberia. Are arisekola successfully executed this contract to the delight of the Federal government but his Yoruba people were not happy that Alhaji Arisekola is doing well with the contract and they rose against him writing petitions and frivolous articles in the media blaming the federal government for awarding such a contract to him even though he was eminently competent and qualified to handle it and he even executed it well. and when the pressure was too much on the federal government the contract was revoked and immediately rewarded to a non-Yoruba contractor with about a 60 %increase in the cost. Alhaji Arisekola accepted his fate in Allah and he never begged for food till he died despite the kenimanism .

They demanded that the contract should be terminated and the contract was eventually terminated. The Federal government paid nothing for the job that was properly executed. Sadly enough, the contract has been rewarded to another person from a non-Yoruba person just because of the kenimani...
