By Dansu Peter 

A young professional chef and entrepreneur, Miss Olaitan Agbeke Oluwatimileyin, has donated some schooling aids to special pupils in some public primary schools in Badagry Local Government Area of Lagos State.

The young chef, Timileyin, who recently celebrated her birthday, is the CEO of OlartB Catering and Decoration. She made the donation to the pupils of Local Authority Primary School, Ajara, and Ansar-u-deen Muslim Primary School, Badagry, in celebration of her birthday.

During her visit to the school with her staff and trainees, Timileyin donated a significant number of school bags and plastic chairs to the special pupils of the two public primary schools with special children in Badagry, Lagos.

The young entrepreneur expressed joy and fulfillment as she said the donation had been a longtime wish for the past 8 years. That she loves making people, especially the Indigents, smile.

She said, "This project has been in my mind for the past 8 years; it's a privilege, and I love seeing other people smile through the little I have," she told News peddlers. 

On why she chose those two schools, she said she chose the school because they are schools for special pupils and that sometimes ago she had discovered that most of the special pupils do not have chairs and school bags. "The excitement on the students faces is my joy, which was the major reason why I went there. It's not that I have a lot of money to do this, but I believe it's worth doing. It shouldn't be until you have a mansion or buy cars before you can help those in need; with the little you have, you can put some smiles on someone's face, if you have the spirit."

"I am super excited to be among the children. I also appreciate the teachers. They are doing a good job. I see them go through lots of rigor in handling and attending to the students. I saw how the teachers made do with sign language to explain my mission to the special students. This is wonderful," Timileyin said after the donation.

She said that though she is not so rich, people should endeavor to express love to others by giving, even from the little they have. She added that people should learn the habit of giving to those in need to help society grow.

Minister impregnates his alluring Deputy, says it was "office accident"

By Dansu Peter 

The Minister of Primary, Secondary and Technical Education (EPST) in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), Tony Mwaba Kazadi, in a shocking confession has admitted impregnating his Deputy Minister, Aminata Namasia, saying it was "office accident" 

Tony and Aminata have had a love affair going on for quite some time now. They work together and feelings grew deeper despite the fact that they’re both married.

This was revealed by a DC reporter known as Lungila John on Twitter.

The citizens of DRC lambasted the minister and his deputy, saying they portrayed bad conduct and showed proof of lack of morals in the country.

Although, Deputy Minister, Aminata Namasia, has been a good role model until this incident occurred.

Meanwhile, Aminata opted not to address the scandal when the story hit social media space a few days ago but instead demanded that her privacy be respected.

Aminata, posted on twitter, “beyond my official and public duties, I have a life that must be respected by all. A right guaranteed to all Congolese by our Constitution. Tarnishing my image should not be a tolerated habit.

“Indeed, it could harm not only my commitments, but also the image of my married male colleagues and their homes.

“On the eve of the electoral contests scheduled for December of this year, political detractors can attack my opinions and political actions rather than opting for practices tending to smear my person.”

Chef Hilda Baci; Exhaustion of Governor Sanwo-olu's Detrabalised Tendencies

By Abubakar Yusuf

It is now incontrovertible to the public glare devoid of any form of pretences or political undertones, that Lagos state Governor, Babajide Olusola Sanwo-olu had maintained the legacies of our heroes past, through the sustenance of good and sane legacies.

It had also underscores cynicism of those playing politics with human lives with a view to attaining their selfish economic growth and political feat , without recourse to posterity.

It was not in the public domain, the case of the Lagos state Governor's chef, Hilda Baci a non- Lagosian , but operated in the first citizen of Lagos state kitchen in the last four years as official cook engaged by the state government.

This development is far away from public beliefs and consternation that everything about Lagos state Governor, from the private to official aides are all from one extraction, or to nail the nail on the head from "Yoruba" extraction.

This is one out of Lagos state Governor's many gestures towards ordinary and average Nigerians towards realizing their ambition and potentials no matter where they came from in this part of the country. 

His strong believe in the Nigerianisation of all and sundry irrespective of creed, colour, religion, section and extraction had come to full glare without any iota of pretences. 

For providing the enabling environment from the kitchen of not only the first citizen of Lagos state, but a sitting Governor of a state portrayed the high level of tolerance, mien and candor displayed by Governor Babajide Olusola Sanwo-olu of Lagos state.

This has revealed that the activities of naysayers is been countered by the continuous display of patriotic zeal and disposition in the administration of Lagos state over the years.

The Governor had also proven wrong those whose strong believe in Lagos is for one particular section wrong in his appointments, employments and engagements of Nigerians in the cosmopolitan Lagos state.

Posterity will continue to judge the Lagos state Governor, for not only providing the enabling environment and opportunity, but solidarity visit to his chef Hilda Baci including a call by the Nigeria's Vice President, Professor Yemi Osinbanjo.

For chef Hilda Baci who is on her way to winning or eventually won the converted trophy, it will be a plus not only for the leadership of Lagos state, but Nigeria at large with rare display of leadership traits by Governor Babajide Olusola Sanwo-olu of Lagos state.

With this development towards the second lap of his administration, no doubt Lagos state will witness not only uneven developments, but leadership with both human and zeal to dispose raw qualities of leadership to the good people of Lagos state.

All hands must be on deck to support the second coming of Governor Babajide Olusola Sanwo-olu who had not only displayed transparency and accountability, but equity and equal opportunities among Lagosians and non Lagosians.
