At My Bank on Tuesday.

Filed Under News | Leave a Comment

I got to my bank in Ibadan, Nigeria, on Tuesday, and I was told that they were not working. They had had only an hour or two of power in the past couple of weeks, and they had been running on their generator the whole while. On Tuesday, their generator packed up. They were sure it had gone so bad that it was not going to be fixed early enough for them to be able to work the day. And it is one of the good banks in Ibadan.

Lamidi Adedibu is Dead

Filed Under News | 3 Comments

I just learnt that Lamidi Adedibu is dead. I am yet to get the details but I can remember that I learnt a couple of weeks ago that he was admitted in a Lagos-based hospital. It is going to be interesting to see what becomes of Ibadan politics. Remember how Ibadan was described as a ‘garrison town’ which has its own special kind of politics? Really, I hope the city does not descend into violence.
