Business Tycoon Oluwasegun Rolland Elusoji Cries Out Over Alleged Threats to Life Amid High-Stakes Legal War with Adeseye Joseph Famojuro

In a dramatic turn in an ongoing legal showdown, prominent entrepreneur Oluwasegun Rolland Elusoji has gone public with chilling threats against his life and that of his family, allegedly linked to his legal battles with influential figure Otunba Adeseye Joseph Famojuro.

Elusoji revealed that the threats began on August 26, 2025, when Famojuro reportedly called some of his associates, vowing to “finish me” and make him “disappear from this earth.” Famojuro allegedly taunted Elusoji, warning that he “does not know who he is” and promising to destroy his reputation nationwide.

The intimidation escalated two days later when Famojuro reportedly contacted Elusoji’s sister, reiterating threats against the family, including his elderly parents. “These threats have left my entire family living in fear, and we are genuinely concerned for our safety,” Elusoji said.

Elusoji claims that Famojuro’s campaign of terror has extended to people close to him, with repeated references to prior incidents involving an associate known as Auxiliary, signaling a dangerous pattern of intimidation.

Sources close to the matter reveal that the threats coincide with a heated legal battle between Elusoji and Famojuro, raising concerns that the intimidation may be a deliberate attempt to influence the outcome of the case. Legal experts warn that such actions constitute serious criminal offenses under Nigerian law—including intimidation, harassment, and threats to life—and could worsen Famojuro’s legal position if proven.

“Since then, he has been contacting individuals close to me, threatening them as well,” Elusoji explained. “He has repeatedly stated that he will make me disappear from this earth and further warned me to ‘go and ask what he did to Auxiliary.’ These threats have placed my family and me in constant fear. At present, the Nigerian Police Force appears so compromised that urgent matters like this are not treated with the seriousness they deserve, simply because he is in a position of power.” The Issue of Alhaji Mukaila Lamidi, a known Auxiliary, is quite a different case, as no one knows what transpired between them in Oyo state park issues, but the Elusoji Court case is both in the USA and Nigeria. So comparing both is not sensible at all.

“This is more than just a legal battle,” Elusoji continued. “It has become a fight for our very survival. We are appealing to IGP Kayode Egbetokun and all relevant authorities to take urgent action before it is too late.” This Adeseye has failed to show up in the Court case in the USA and Nigeria. So why go ahead to declare someone wanted or resort to a threat to the life of his loved Ones?

The allegations have sparked outrage among human rights advocates, who are calling for immediate protection for Elusoji and his family. Critics are questioning whether law enforcement can act impartially, given the alleged perpetrator’s influence. Who is afraid of Adeseye? Is it the police or EFCC? Is it because he is Governor Makinde’s ally, or is he the Governor?

Observers warn that the case could set a precedent for how citizens are treated when threatened by powerful individuals, stressing the urgent need for transparency, accountability, and protection of life—irrespective of status or influence.

As the legal battle rages on, the nation watches closely, with many calling for swift action to ensure that justice prevails and that no one is above the law.

Nigeria’s logistics industry is undergoing a digital shift as new platforms emerge to address long-standing challenges of cargo movement, transparency, and cost efficiency. One of the latest entrants making waves is Cargopas, a technology-driven solution designed to connect shippers, carriers, and logistics providers in real time.

The platform offers features such as instant booking, live tracking, and digital payment processing, aiming to simplify an industry often slowed down by paperwork, delays, and unreliable systems. With a wide network of carriers, it allows businesses and individuals to move goods more efficiently while monitoring every stage of delivery.

Analysts say such innovations are part of a broader trend in Africa’s logistics ecosystem, where startups are leveraging technology to solve infrastructural bottlenecks. By enabling real-time communication and greater accountability, platforms like Cargopas are attempting to bridge the gap between demand and supply in cargo movement.

Industry experts also point out that digital logistics could play a vital role in reducing costs for small and medium-sized businesses, which often struggle with inconsistent delivery services. With e-commerce on the rise and supply chains growing more complex, the demand for such solutions is expected to increase.

While still relatively new, Cargopas reflects the growing push within Nigeria’s tech ecosystem to modernize traditional industries, bringing logistics into a more connected, transparent, and reliable future.

Buratai Hails National Icons: Yahaya and Daurawa Recognized with Honourary Degrees

Sokoto, Nigeria – A defining moment of national pride and academic excellence played out on Saturday, September 6, 2025, when Usmanu Danfodiyo University, Sokoto (UDUS) conferred honorary doctorates on two towering figures in Nigeria’s military and moral spheres.

Lt. Gen. Faruk Yahaya (Rtd.), CFR, former Chief of Army Staff, was awarded the Doctor of Science (D.Sc. Honoris Causa) for his outstanding contributions to national defence, counter-insurgency operations, and military reforms. On the other hand, Sheikh Muhammad Aminu Ibrahim Daurawa, a revered Islamic scholar and peace advocate, received the Doctor of Letters (D.Litt.

The double conferment, which formed the highlight of UDUS’s 42nd Combined Convocation Ceremony, was met with thunderous applause from dignitaries, academics, and students. The university hailed the honourees as embodiments of its core values: knowledge, peace, security, discipline, and ethical leadership.

Former Chief of Army Staff and Ambassador, Lt. Gen. Tukur Yusuf Buratai (Rtd.), congratulated the duo, describing the honours as “a national recognition for lives lived in service, sacrifice, and the upliftment of society.”

“Gen. Faruk Yahaya has stood firm as a patriot who strengthened Nigeria’s security architecture, while Sheikh Aminu Daurawa shines as a beacon of moral integrity and peacebuilding. Their recognition goes beyond their personal achievements—it represents the hopes of all Nigerians working towards a safer, stronger, and morally upright nation,” Buratai said.
