‘Omo n’iyi omo n’ide,Omo l’asehinde to ba d’ale..’ That’s the opening track of the juju musician, General (Prince) Adekunle’s record waxed in 1975. His band was named The Supersonic Sounds.

Today is Children’s Day in Nigeria! I would suggest there should be no March Past to observe the day. The children should simply learn from the idiocy and stupidity being displayed by us. And by Jove, they’ll surely learn a lot. Instead of the “cowboy” movies we used to watch when I was a kid,…
