This is My life
An alumnus of the famous
Nigerian Public School, Igbobi College, Yaba and the University of Ife
(OAU). I served three former Heads of State as Portuguese/French
interpreter and Senior Protocol Aide between 1983 and 1990. I aspire to
be excellent in all that I put my hands to and have exploited my
gifts in as many vocations as I have been challenged with. I revel in
the Arts and Antiques and have attended numerous training courses on
banking as well as on interior decoration and design in the UK. |
Officer of the Order of Rio Branco (Brazil)
My years as a diplomat have
afforded me the opportunity of serving my nation with honour. I have
travelled around the world extensively with Heads of State. Of several
mentions I received, pre-eminent is the Officer of the Order of Rio Branco, Brazil presented to me by President Joao Bernado Figueiredo in 1983 |
Politics, Humanity and Mankind
I
am a humanist who is deeply moved by the needless suffering of my
fellow countrymen. It is in this spirit that I sought to serve in the
Public domain, and offered myself for the Senatorial Seat of the Lagos
West Senatorial District in the 2003 Nigerian General Elections. I lost
gallantly, but my political ambition is undiminished.
My
foray into politics and my choice of the Justice Party came as part of
my beleif that the joy of every household is to be able to afford the
three basic human needs; Food, Shelter and Clothing. The perennial
suffering of the 'Common Man' who is starving in the midst of 'plenty'
is nevertheless a challenge that I have personally taken up.
In the same manner in which I
have embraced politics, I have also taken my quest to serve mankind
higher with my introduction to, and my subsequent membership of the
Rotary Club of Lagos. I am the incumbent International Service Director
of the Club and have organised series of educative programmes which
include, a presentation on the 'The Iraqi Conflict' by the Consul-General of the American Consulate in Nigeria, Ms Robyn Hinson-Jones, a lecture on 'International Relations' by Prof. Wale Omole, the former Vice Chancellor of Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife and a presentation on 'The French Contribution to World Peace' by H.E, Ambassador Yves Gaudeil, the French Ambsassador to Nigeria. |
