Mrs. Omotayo Salawudeen took Oladapo through the kitchen and hid him inside a store in their apartment. When the husband came, the wife signaled her guest (Oladapo) and immediately, Mrs Omotayo Salawudeen used pillow to cover her husband’s mouth while Oladapo Dolapo, a musician from Ejigbo, stabbed him to death in his chest.”

"STORY OF THE PRISON BOY.

2011 - I celebrated my birthday in Kirikiri Prison with so much hope that I will be home next birthday.

2012 - I celebrated with 3,500 young men whose dreams have been tied down by mass incarceration.

2013 - Same Kirikiri (A.K.A) Ajamgbadi last bus-stop became my home. It became my everything. With no hope of leaving prison, I blended with the system and the system became my hope.

2014 - The powerful force of justice took me away from Kirikiri Prison to another country sharing border with Delta state. I was welcomed to Ogwashi Uku prison (A. K.A) AYOKO CITY, with a Slogan "COUNTRY NO PAPA NO MAMA". The slogan means so much (alumni can testify). Ayoko welcomed me.

2015 - The prison gate couldn't hold me anymore. At about 11:45am, the judge declared "Harrison Gwamnishu you are hereby discharged". Aka Chukwu diya..."He the lord has set free, is free indeed."

Where do we see the children of Senators and Hushpuppi ? On Instagram; showing off Gucci and we celebrate them as if one gucci will touch us after we do. See, if you are a "nobody," media doesn't careless about your opinion. Society is shaped by the elites. Ms. Kemi Omololu Olunloyo takes time to advocate for human right causes in Nigeria; how many children of Nigerian elites does that? Nigeria is sick because Nigerians choose to live that way. The leaders are Nigerians and live amongst Nigerians. They didn't come from a distant place. Lolu out..."

She wrote: "And that same President is enjoying medical attention abroad! What utter hypocrisy and absolute zero character and integrity!

"There is a hausa proverb that says if u want to dig hole of wickedness dig a short one because you might be the one to fall in. It fits PMB."
Recall that 
Ara TV  recently reported that Aisha Yesufu advised President Muhammadu Buhari to resign in the interest of Nigeria.

Yesufu gave the advice in a two minutes, 20 seconds video she recorded and posted on Twitter page.
