  In recent discussions regarding the political climates in Osun State, the recurring notion that Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola should humble himself and seek favor from former Governor of Lagos State, now President of Nigeria, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, who has raised eyebrows and invoked significant debate among Osun stakeholders and the electorate. Aregbesola, with an impressive tenure as a two-term governor of our dear state, has demonstrated that true leadership is not measured by subservience or desperation. Pushing him to 'go and beg' President Bola Ahmed Tinubu undermines his achievements and the sacrifices he has made for the people of Osun. This rhetoric not only discredits Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola but diminishes the dignity of the values that our state stands for, "Living Spring State" The question remains: Is Ogbeni Aregbesola motivated by hunger for sustenance or by a drive for impactful governance, Which Imole stands for? As Osun citizens, we should know that our leaders...

  By Pelumi Olajengbesi, Esq. In my professional experience as a legal practitioner, God has helped me to help over 34 people dissolve their marriages. Some proceedings were so acrimonious that they resembled battlefields, while some concluded amicably and with mutual respect. Although matrimonial cases are not my core area of legal practice, overseeing a large firm with a diverse practice areas naturally brings such matters to my engagement. Just as we are closing for the year, a lady referred to me from a very close friend, visited my office seeking my legal service to terminate her marriage. Her demeanor was one of profound emotional exhaustion, and as she recounted her harrowing experiences, tears streamed down her face. Her narrative was heartrending, revealing the depths of her anguish. It was unmistakable that this dissolution would be fraught with toxicity and intense contention. She has obviously been in bed with the devil himself, not because of her story alone, but the s...

  The essence of leadership within the National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) is to represent the collective interests of students. Sadly, it appears that both the NANS national and zonal leaderships have lost sight of this sacred mandate. Their recent actions or lack thereof have not only sidelined the students they claim to serve but have also cast a shadow of doubt on the credibility of the association. The case of the Osun State Joint Campus Committee (JCC) is a glaring example of this betrayal. After a fair and transparent decision made by the majority of institutions, the leadership of Solomon Ayobami Abel was collectively endorsed by the students. This decision reflected the trust and confidence reposed in him by a wide spectrum of stakeholders. However, certain individuals within the NANS structure are working tirelessly to overturn this popular mandate, thereby undermining the sanctity of the association and its democratic processes. What makes this situation eve...
