GTB MD, TAYO ADERINOKUN IS DEAD (1955 - 2011)

With heavy hearts, yours truly regret to announce the death of one of Africa's finest and distinguished personalities, Tayo Aderinokun. He died in a London hospital from a protracted illness. Until his death, Tayo was the Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of one of Nigeria's biggest banks, Guaranty Trust Bank, Plc. Tayo, according to colleagues, admirers, employees and the country at large won many friends with his amiability, finesse, style and diligence. His stay as the helmsman of GTB oversaw the banks tremendous growth in the country's financial sector to be one of the most trustworthy banks. He alongside the bank won so many awards and improved in its fitch ratings.

He would be dearly missed by his friends, colleagues and his employees who to them he means the whole world. Popularly called Uncle T, he would forever remain in their memories. All GTB flags have been flown at half mast and preparations are underway to organise a befitting burial.

Adieu Great Man. Many people pass away in this world without fulfilling a pint of their dreams. But you did and I am forever proud of you. I will never forget what legacy you have bequeathed and would continue to build on that.

Sleep on in the bossom of our Lord, Uncle T.

UNEMPLOYMENT - A TIME BOMB WAITING TO EXPLODE

Oga Jonathan,


I am a youth who is also affected by this new scourge called unemployment whether directly or indirectly. Statistics show that over 75% of Nigerian youths are unemployed. There are so many of us who have become so frustrated that they have resorted to crimes such as kidnapping, 419, drug abuse, robbery, etc. Some others have joined their ancestors through desperate acts of suicide. I do not know if you have ministers or special advisers in charge of this - employment. But I do know that they receive their estacodes, emoluments, allowances, etc despite the huge work they feel they have done. I also do know that what matters to you is to hold fund-raising that amounts to billions for your cherished presidential campaign and so you are not bothered.

Anyway, I just want you to know that a stitch in time saves nine, and you of all people should know that if this scourge is not checked, you may have a time bomb waiting right before your own eyes to explode i.e. if it hasn't started exploding at all. Did I hear you say IBB - Independence Bomb ...

INEC and the two JEGAS

There are two JEGAS. One in INEC and the other is in the PRESIDENCY. The latter one is JONATHAN EBELE GOODLUCK AZIKIWE. It is somehow coincidental that both somehow need each other. The latter appointed the former to probably oversee a violence-, rigging-free election in which the latter is expected to feature. Is this not a case of scratching one's back. Let's keep watching! chiksky
