WAFCOM 2025; Morocco is a "shit" country

Adeola Aderounmu I just wanted to drop this note quickly. The edit will come later. CAF is weak in football organisation in Africa. Moronic Moroccans are fond of bringing lasers to the football stadium when they meet Nigeria. That this repeated itself in the 2025 finals is an indictment on the citizens of Morocco. They are shitty, petty criminals for bringing lasers to point at our girls. To…

My Random Reflection @ 53

By Adeola Aderounmu My Random Reflection @ 53 It has been 18 years since I started to write this series: My Random Reflections. Usually, they bothered around my personal life and Nigeria. In recent years my focus shifted from Nigeria to what I expect of the future: a future that Nigeria would be dismantled so that the entrapped nations/countries in it can be set free to attain greatness and…

Former Dictators and Rulers Seeking Treatment Abroad in 2025. How Useless Are These Rulers?

By Adeola Aderounmu, Sweden Buhari & Tinubu In several essays spanning several years, I have written several blog entries here on adeola.blog on the need to have at the minimum 36 international standard hospitals in Nigeria. That would mean 36 public health institutions at the least. If the number becomes 72, even better. Why is this type of project necessary? It is necessary to provide basic,…

Festac: There Was A Town

By Adeola Aderounmu I could have given this essay so many titles. Festac: A Town That Became A Jungle. The End Of Festac. The Collapse Of Festac A lot of things are in disarray in Nigeria. The disorderliness is legendary. Nigeria is a place I do not want to call a country because it was created in 1914 as a business enterprise for the orgy of the British Royal Family. It was created to milk…

Does Nigeria Have A Minister Of Communication? Who is he/she?

Adeola Aderounmu Does Nigeria Have A Minister Of Communication? Who is he/she? SIM Card registration down for more than 2 weeks! For all the days we have seen yet in July 2025 (today is the 9th), and probably from the last few days of June 2025, the network for the registration of new mobile phones SIM cards has not been operational in Nigeria. I do not know the name of the network but the…

2025: Does Lagos State Have A Governor? Is There Governance In Lagos?

Photo Story (Part 1) By Adeola Aderounmu Images of Festac Town show horror road network in the entire community. This is horror! I learnt from other people that no one cares to do anything about the absence of road network in Festac. Well, that will change soon because this is the beginning of another dimension to the story. We will keep posting until change comes to Festac. First is the…

All Rants, And No Change. A Dilemma Called Nigeria.

A Dilemma Called Nigeria Adeola Aderounmu. In recent weeks, in recent months actually, I have not been keen on blogging. It is not for lack of ideas. It is not that there are no more biting issues to discuss. There is still a lot to tackle. In our world, for all time, there will never be a shortage of what to write about, what to discuss and what to engage with.  The difference between writing…

After The Rants

By Adeola Aderounmu Nigerians are currently ranting on the social media. It’s a welcome development to rant and share the problems of the suffering masses. A long time ago, I defined mass poverty even before other organisations started to use the term. Mass poverty in Nigeria has metamorphosed into population poverty. The stunning prices of goods and services may not be peculiar to Nigeria but…

Nigeria: "Terrible Governments" Did Not Start Today.

By Adeola Aderounmu The month of march 2025 has been a remarkable month in Bongo-Nigeria. There has been a back and forth laceration, mostly online, between those who criticized and those who support the useless and terrible government in Nigeria under the rulership of one Ahmed Tinubu, a man whose real names and identity are unclear. I am Yoruba and if you think that I am behind any form of…

Nigeria, Ruled By Thieves and Fraudsters like Doyin Okupe

By Adeola Aderounmu When you have a spokesman like Doyin Okupe, then you probably have either a criminal mind or deep criminal tendencies. Goodluck Jonathan probably considered Abati ineffective as a presidential spokesman. Abati wrote and spoke for the common people for many years before he switched sides. Under the influence of money and power true characters will always emerge. Abati has gone…

A Questionable Democracy Adeola Aderounmu What kind of democracy gives the presidency to a convicted felon, a criminal? When a convicted felon, a criminal is sworn in as president in a democracy, then democracy should be placed under the spotlight and questioned. There is every reason to discuss about the consequences of the type of democracy that the US is displaying to the world. It’s…

Na-Kutsa: A village By The Kidnapper’s Den

Na-Kutsa: A village By The Kidnapper’s Den Adeola Aderounmu (A view From The Scandinavian) There are many stories of families waiting for their loved ones across Nigeria. After a certain period of waiting, the expectations of seeing them alive again drop and the worst is assumed. Just imagine boarding a cab along the road because the car park was devoid of regular taxi services and being…

My American Diary (Part 2). Family Appreciation.

A Photo Story By Adeola Aderounmu One of the things we take for granted, and often too, is the basic unit of the society. Family. Family was the major reason I travelled to the US in 2024.

My American Diary (Part 1): The Value Of True Friendship.

Adeola aderounmu. The value of true friendship is inestimable. I decided to write this, like many other stuffs I have written over the last 3 decades because if we don’t write our stories, someone else will do, and the distortions will not only be unimaginable, but also irreparable. When I travelled to New Jersey with my family in May 2024, there were 3 friends already on the alert and holding…

A Rethink on British-Made Nigerian Independence. Is It Worth Celebrating?

A rethink on Nigeria’s independence. Is it worth celebrating? By Adeola Aderounmu Our days of ignorance can be overlooked. However our days of stupidity are unforgivable. The idea of Nigeria celebrating indpendence from the British gangsters should actually be re-considered. Is it worth celebrating in ways that glorifies the slave masters? I do not think it is worth celebrating that way, or in…

Asiko L'aye-Life is transient

Asiko L’aye (Part 1) Adeola Aderounmu Words have continued to fail me in trying to come to terms with the demise of one of my closest friends Adelanke Temitope Osunmakinwa. A couple of years back, I had this idea about writing a book that the title would be “It’s our turn to die”. Even while trying to write this tribute, I thought about the book I never wrote: It’s our turn to die. I come from…
