People Perceive My Dad Wrongly: Hon. (Crown Prince) ABA, Son of Oba Olugbo of Ugboland (Obat Oil and Petroleum)

Hon (Crown Prince) Abayomi B Akinruntan

His humility and passion for his people caught my attention; as his self confidence and spirit of wanting to be himself without depending on his father got my respect. When our paths crossed, I was excited to know more about him and know what he's made of.  Being a political leader and a traditional leader gives him the opportunity to know so much on how to deal with societal problems. In my own words, I call him 'double leader'.

Hon. (Crown Prince) Abayomi B Akinruntan, member Ondo State House of Assembly, Representing Ilaje  Constituency 1, the son of Oba (Dr) FEO Akinruntan CON Olugbo of Ugboland is bold, brave and focused. The interview with him says it all: 

How often do you get to see your dad? Occasionally, but we see more in the state here or at the seat of the throne.

How do you live your life as a politician and royalty? Ummm, both are the same.

Are you sure? As a Prince I represent my people, and at the parliament I do the same.

Our Impromptu Visit To Ilesha Prison: I Picked Myself Back Up

Sola Opesan Brown,  DCP Ope Fatinikun and Natural

Any opportunity to support the community in our own little way is always appreciated by Mother Nature. We went to honour MBE 2017 awardee (CSP ID. Adedeji), just across the road from the prison... I found it necessary to give a bit of me to the inmates and to encourage the correctional officers to be good and loving all the time.

We've Celebrated MBE 2017 Improver Awards In a Special Way

"MBE Improver Awards is celebrated yearly to acknowledge, celebrate and confer excellence on individuals who devoted their all in promoting human welfare and advancing reforms in their specific fields, not forgetting our cultural heritage, and what we as humans stand for."

MBE 2017 Improver Awards' door to door award presentation was fantastic. We're glad we did; it wasn't an easy journey going around different states and towns, but it was worth it. We tried a different way to suit our commitments this year and also to make it convenient for some awardees. The passion for what we do keeps us going.

I know some people have been wondering about MBE 2017 Improver Awards, also, we received many messages asking us where and when will it take place... well, we've celebrated MBE 2017 Improver Awards in a different way this year.

There are a few pictures below; we'll soon write on our experience with each awardee. Some awardees' pictures are not shown... we'll do later.

Why Menstruation Before Adulthood?

We often frown at early marriage (child marriage) and early adolescent childbearing; then why menstruation before adulthood? I'm not a biologist, not a gynaecologist and not the creator, but I woke up this morning wondering why menstruation from age eleven, even earlier in some cases.

Let's Respect All Professions

Many often some of us look down or some professions, forgetting that without these sets of professionals the circle of life will not complete. We should remember that, no one can do it all, no matter how skilful  and multi talented/professional we might be.

Awe-Inspiring Moment With Dr. Abel Ujiya Ademu (Bursar, Kogi State University)

Awe-inspiring moment with one of the powerful, influential and kind-hearted leaders that make great things happen quietly but hardly heard about. I'm very glad that my path crossed that of a worthy, humble and compassionate leader, Dr. Abel Ujiya Ademu, the Bursar of Kogi State University and President of Bursar Associations of Polytechnic, Monotechnic & College of Technology of Nigeria. 

Here is a brief interview with the man with a heart of gold:

Don't Accept Disrespect

Just know is not about you, is about the ill behaved individual. It has nothing to do with you; be you, be sure you are doing things right. Respect others and make sure you are respected in return.

Monogamy With Hidden Agendas

Why do we deceive ourselves? Let's come straight and be frank with our inner selves. It's very difficult for a lot of people, especially men, to strictly practice monogamy. Human nature says it all, also many religions, cultures and society permit it because of one reason or the other. This is cool and acceptable by so many with deep understanding from the beginning or at a point when things change. The ones that can bear it will hold on to it, the ones that cannot will leave. It's a matter of choice, no one should force anyone to be part of  any lifestyle they do not want to be part of. One thing for sure, a lot do stay in a polygamous relationship with deep understanding and agreement.

Why You Mustn't Use Chat Abbreviations

It's advisable not to use chat abbreviations because most people do not have the time for the interpretation of chat abbreviations, more so, there are no longer any stated rules; each individual comes up with own chat abbreviation style. For a lot, it's a waste of time guessing what your chat abbreviation means, it could be very confusing too.

I Finally Met The Media Icon, Prince Bisi Olatilo

It was a great pleasure to meet with the Media Icon. A humble and tranquil person I saw when I met him. The first time I heard about this great man was about four years ago when my good friend and brother, Prince Benson Olaoluwa mentioned him to me, and since then, it has been on my mind to see this hard working and successful man that has impacted so many people and homes through his professionalism and love for what he does. If just for one minute it will be fine with me, I said to myself; since I know he's a very busy person, and I have got places to go too. A brief meeting it was, but as for me, it's well worth it; well satisfied with the man I met.

My Curiousity: Apostle Suleiman and Stephanie Otobo's Adventure Got Me To Definite Destiny

For a few weeks I have been so curious and wondering how nice will the acclaimed hotel they both stayed will look like; It must be prestigiously beautiful, I said to myself. With the calibre of the man in question it must be, I kept saying to myself. The description of Miss Otobo of the hotel was a street after the petrol station next door to the Ikeja Airport Hotel. The hotel that I saw on the internet that goes with the description was Definite Destiny Hotels Ltd, and I guess the name of the hotel was mentioned online at a point.

I Have Gotten Myself A 'Godfather' In Prof. Olu Aina (Hon. Member ICPC 2011-2015)

Prof Olu Aina & Sola Opesan Brown

Prof. Olu Aina was a Hon. member of the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission. He's from Otan-Ayagbaju in the welcoming State of Osun. He was born over seven decades ago. He lived and studied in different parts of the world where he both studied and worked. Western Michigan University, Kalamazoo, USA, Northern Michigan University, USA, Marquette, USA University of North Dakota, Grand Forks, USA, Manchester Business School, University of Manchester, UK, and International Centre for Technical Education, Huddersfield University, UK where he obtained B.Sc and Ph.D respectively. He started his higher education at the Polytechnic of  Ibadan

Prof. Olu Aina

He worked as a teacher both at home and abroad, before he was appointed as a member of ICPC  he was a lecturer at Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria. Also, he's a publisher and a writer. He has presented 87 seminars and conference papers and also supervised almost 45 thesis ranging from Masters to Doctorate level.

I'm glad I came across Prof and his wonderful friend, Chief Ayo Akinyemi. They are sociable, disciplined and well kept respectable elderly men. They are both proud citizens of Osun State, every second they talk about Osun State, "we are from Osun State", they proudly say. I'm proud of  them.

Number Ten: My 'Boss-Friend' (Hon. Dayo Saka Fafunmi, Lagos State House of Assembly) And I

Hon. Fafunmi & Sola Opesan Brown

Ten represents beginning of new lessons in cycles of knowledge, and great responsibility rests on the ten in individual leadership quality.

Number ten was said to be the holiest of numbers according to the Pythagoreans; they took their oaths by number ten.

I Appreciate Your Labour of Love

"I appreciate your labour of love; God bless you richly". When I received this message from my man, I responded with a "Thanks". It was a spontaneous response, I was glad but the real and deep meaning of it didn't dawn on me until the following day.

Politicians Are Like Prostitutes: Hon. Olanrewaju Ibrahim Layode alias OIL '88' (Lagos State House of Assembly)

After a sightseeing to Badagry; we talked about the possibility of Badagry being a good point of attraction and tourism, especially when the road expansion is completed. Badagry is strategically located; a promising community, with nice beach, warm people and also a borderline with Benin Republic. From Badagry we travelled down to Ikeja, we decided to stop by at the office of Hon.  Olanrewaju Ibrahim Layode alias OIL 88, represents Badagry Constituency 1 at the Lagos State House of Assembly since 2007.

Let Them Be Able To Close The Chapter And Move On

When you don't want to stay, don't give mixed messages, don't let them believe they still have a chance.

Let them be able to close the chapter and move on, there's no need to waste their time and finally do not leave them with a total heartbreak. Be fair, just and kind to others.

We live just once, let's make it a good living.
