“Omo to ba ma je ashamu ati kekere loti ma nse enu shamu shamu.” A child that will go far in life will start exhibiting the traits very early in life.
I have never been a bootlicker and/ or a political jobber but I say it as I see it.
I was practically moved to write this piece when I saw the elderly ones MOK extended his intervention to at Obbo Aiyegunle, Kwara State few days ago on the various social media platforms and I was filled with joy because I saw uncommon happiness in the faces of those people.
I have a strong link with the people of Obbo Aiyegunle because I finished my Primary education at St. Luke’s Primary School in 1979 due to the fact that my Daddy of blessed memory had a stint at Obbo Aiyegunle Teacher’s College between 1977 and 1979. So my life history will not be completed without mentioning Obbo Aiyegunle.
MOK is definitely the new Sheriff in town as a result of the fact that he has been intervening in key thematic areas such as; Education, Agriculture, Power, Sports, Security, Empowerment, Healthcare and what have you.
It can rightly be said that MOK’s Foudation is now a government on its own based on his various critical Interventions in the aforementioned thematic areas.
Sometime ago, I received a call and the caller said I should guess the Muideen that was on the call. I responded that I am not good at guessing but I mentioned some names but I didn’t mention MOK and he later responded that he is MOK. I said wa ooooo. What a pleasant surprise.
We exchanged pleasantries and spoke at length.
He said that he has been reading my various write ups cum advocacy and I thanked him most sincerely for that.
He shared his vision, views, ideas and ideals about humanity with me and I commended him for his thoughtfulness.
Frankly speaking, I honestly think that MOK is from another planet because he has been doing what other rich people have not been doing lately.
MOK: Keep it up please!
I don’t think it is all about richness but about love for humanity and to lift others up.
As at the last count, he has lifted a lot of people up because some of them told me their testimonies. Permit me not to mention names please.
He has shown that his love for fellow human beings is unequalled, uncommon and unparalleled.
May Almighty Allah spare the life of MOK and may He continue to enrich him the more in sound health. Amen and Amen.
Last line, I think MOK should go for elective post so that he can serve humanity in a more broader way.
So long.
