Music legend, Evangelist Ebenezer Obey-Fabiyi, has described the recent award conferred on the Chairman of Globacom Limited, Dr Mike Adenuga Jr. by Ghana president John Mahama has a worthy honour and a confirmation that he is competent in transforming not only Nigeria, but Africa and the entire globe.


While congratulating the business mogul, Obey said that the award reflected the commitment of Adenuga to the growth and development of telecommunication across Africa by providing employment to many youths in sports, culture, entertainment, , among others.

He said that, “The highest national award tagged: ‘The Companion of the Star Ghana (CSG),’ is a testament that Dr Adenuga is a proud nationalist, philanthropist and a prudent businessman. I am confident that this recognition will enhance his desire to do greater things for Nigeria and Africa at large. Nigerians are proud of him. Personally, I am delighted to see Ghana appreciate him with the prestigious award towards his contributions to the growth of economy.

“As an artiste, I am one of the beneficiaries of his good works and I am happy that this is happening in our time. I pray that God will continue to keep him and grant him long life to achieve all   his aspirations and accomplish all his good plans geared towards lifting Africa to a greater level in the entire world,” he added.

Obey, who also described Dr Adenuga as a man who is always thinking of the progress of Nigeria, empowering Africans and also creating communication-made-easy environment for Africans, charged other well-meaning Nigerians and Africans to take a cue from Adenuga’s vision to collectively transform and make Africa a place of pride.

IMMUNITY BILL: A MISPLACED PRIORITY

Certainly, it is not a matter of conjecture to say that the undue interference and unpalatably flagrant disregard to separation of power by the executive tier of government has raised more questions than answers on the integrity of this government and the commitment of the leadership to truly push for the genuine change in line with democratic norms all over the world.   Fatunde Bamidele Samuel (VEGA) writes from lagos. Recently, the society was encapsulated with shocking news of pension bill for the National Assembly members. However, the bill was dead on arrival. This is nothing but another heinous attempt to permanently ground the country that is already suffering from the bloodsucking bedbugs (NASS) and former governors pensions.

The recent exploit of the National Assembly is evi...

Trump ’s operation after the firing of his original campaign manager, handed in his resignation on Friday, signifying the latest tumult to engulf the candidate, whose standing in the polls has steadily dropped since the  Republican Party ’s convention in July.

Those news reports were blotting out much of the press coverage of th...
