Omo Oloore Condoles Osun APC Chairman, Sooko Tajudeen Lawal, Over Wife’s Passing The Executive Director, Marine and Operations of the Nigerian Ports Authority (NPA), Engr. Abdul-Rahman Olalekan Badmus (Omo Oloore), has expressed deep sorrow over the demise of the wife of the Osun State Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Alhaja Fatimah Oreoluwa Lawal. In a condolence message made available to the public, Lekan Badmus commiserated with the Osun APC Chairman, Sooko Tajudeen Lawal, and his entire family over the painful loss of their beloved wife, mother, and family matriarch. Describing the deceased as a rare gem, Engr. Badmus said Alhaja Fatimah Lawal was a woman of uncommon generosity, grace, and compassion whose exemplary character contributed immensely to the stability, standard, and strength of her family, while also serving as a source of comfort and support to her husband in his leadership responsibilities. According to him, her life was a testament to selflessness and devotion to the ordinance of Almighty Allah, and he added that her impactful presence and motherly virtues would be greatly missed by all who had the privilege of knowing her. Hon. Olalekan Badmus, while praying for the repose of her soul, asked Almighty Allah to forgive her shortcomings, accept her good deeds as acts of Ibadah, and grant her Aljanah Firdaus. He also prayed for Sooko Tajudeen Lawal and the entire family, asking Allah to grant them the fortitude to bear the irreparable loss and replace their grief with divine comfort, peace, and greater fortune. "On behalf of myself and my family, I extend my heartfelt condolences to our dear Chairman, Sooko Tajudeen Lawal, and the entire family over this painful loss. I pray that Almighty Allah, in His infinite mercy, forgives all her shortcomings, grants her eternal rest, and comforts the family she left behind," he stated. He urged the family to take solace in the remarkable life she lived and in the prayers and support of well-wishers during this difficult time.

LET US MAKE YORUBA NATION GREAT AGAIN - ONE STATE AT A TIME 01 First of all, I have read rather amusing responses to my involvement in the Osun Gubernatorial Race. These comments are obviously conjured in pain - and are, at best, comical, though presented as attacks. 1. "JOE should face his Ogun and Lagos State Politics." No Sir. 1. No, Sir. The four corners through which a child's conception is traced - mine are purely tied to Yoruba ancestry, through and through. My Yorubaness is not a passport with territorial restrictions. It is a birthright. It gives me bonafide standing to hold opinions on any event, any contest, any crisis upon Yoruba soil. I am not Yoruba 'BUT' - I am Yoruba and Yoruba. 2. "JOE may be Yoruba but what does he know about Osun State?" Again, you are wrong. I do not presume to shape the political narratives of a state I can only locate on a map. I speak of a state where I schooled through my first degree - and where I served this nation as a teacher, moulding the next generation of its leaders. My former students at Ansaru-Islam, Erin Osun, have since grown into accomplished professionals across their respective fields. And if I were a certain Sirlerkur, I would today be comparing that feat - two decades old - to Tunde Onakoya's chess exploits. "Me too, I raised children from the slum." 😆 Many of those pupils still communicate with the Economics teacher they once called Corper JOE. And their communications with me transcend pleasantries. They come with complaints. A cry for rescue. A firm demand for change - because, as they tell it, the Osun we all once knew as promising and brimming with potential is no more. 3. "J.O.E don collect gig. Return their money, your literature won't work here." Afala Taquilin. May you also rise - one day - to a profile where your contributions to public conversation command value. With my first two points established, you will recognise: even had I not been Yoruba - a proud race who would never claim another man's stead as home - I am qualified to claim Osun. By education. By service. But Yorubas do not traffic in such inferiority complexities. I contribute only to causes I believe in. May you also, someday, command enough value that your opinions can attract favours. Now that we have cleared the air - SHALL I BEGIN?

They are just recruited frivolous bandits to attack, abuse, and curse online. Lolz 😂.

Happy International Worker’s Day from Asiwaju Munirudeen Bola Oyebamiji (@OyebamijiBola), the incoming Governor of Osun State 💙✌🏽.
