Ezomo my man, my thinking partner, all-round knowledge on many levels, in diverse fields, the energy of many horsepowers, detailed like an eagle, full of life, relatable across age grades, scratch that, ageless, if there was any true pan Nigerian it was my man high chief!
There was no limit to what his mind can grasp and whatever he could imagine he could build, an unusual ability to work late into the night and still be the first to be ready first thing in the morning, an administrator who keeps impeccable records.
A process thinker with the gift to compartmentalize idea lines in such a way that you had to marvel at where he gets the energy!
Restlessly unstoppable, always on the go.
A man of the strong Christian faith of the catholic order.

Just live life and leave life, and my man Ezomo lived it his way and he had left it in his way, I can see the cheeky smile on your face. Rest now.

Abiodun Flags Off Aviation Village, Says Project Will Complement Cargo Airport
Ogun State Governor, Prince Dapo Abiodun, on Tuesday, flagged off the construction of 200 units of two-bedroom expanded bungalows, at the Gateway Aviation Village, located at Iperu in Ikenne Local Government Area of the State.
He said the project was divided into two phases, with the first 100 units ready in six months.
The governor, who was represented by the Special Adviser on Housing, Jagunmolu Jamiu Omoniyi, said the project would herald the creation of a new city in the town and would serve the entire Remo cluster and the state in general.
According to the governor, the siting of the housing scheme would serve institutions and people who will make use of the Gateway Agro-Cargo Airport, noting government agencies like the Customs, the Nigerian Air Force, and corporate bodies, have already indicated interest in the airport.
He added that the project would create jobs for about 5,000 artisans of various skills in the course of the execution of the project.
The governor said: “This is the people’s project. This housing scheme will complement the airport and serve those who will work in this town. I can assure you that within two years, the story of this town will change. We will not engage outsiders to work in this estate, but the people of this town.
“We have done similar projects at Kemta, Idi-Aba and Kobape. The siting of similar housing estate has changed the landscape of Kobape which was a village before to a lively city.”
He called on prospective buyers to start the process by obtaining their forms and charging the people to support and take ownership of the project for the development of the town.
Speaking on behalf of the Alaperu of Iperu, Oba Idowu Basibo, Ebi Idena, and Oba Lukman Salami, expressed delight that the project is being sited in his domain.
In his remarks, the Chairman of Ikenne Local Government Area, Mr. Segun Ogunleye, expressed gratitude to the governor, saying with the siting of the housing estate and the cargo airport, the development of the town is assured.
Also, the Chairman of Ogun State Park Management Service, Engr. Wale Yusuf, said the project would change the face of the town for good, urging the indigenes to support the project.
Primate Ayodele’s Prophecy Fulfilled As Mali Junta Postpones Presidential Election
Sahara Weekly Reports That The presidential election planned for February in the military-ruled West African state of Mali has to be postponed “for technical reasons”, the transitional government announced on Monday.
The junta cited the updating of the electoral roll and problems with a census database following a dispute with the operating company as reasons.
This is another fulfillment of Primate Ayodele’s prophecy which he shared last year in a popular newspaper.
According to the prophet, the transition to civilian government will not be realistic in Mali. He made it known that there will be a crisis in the country and that the country will be sanctioned.
These were his words
“Another crisis will upturn the present transition in Mali, 18 months is not realistic and the country will face a major sanction, the leader should watch out for his health.”
(https://theeagleonline.com.ng/primate-ayodele-releases-fresh-prophecies-for-13-african-countries/)
The announcement by the military junta to postpone the election has confirmed the prophecy of Primate Ayodele.
Primate Ayodele has a record of fulfilled prophecies globally and Mali is one of the countries where he has been celebrated for foretelling significant events that has taken place there. It would be recalled that the military coup that ousted the civilian government was foretold by Primate Ayodele long before it happened.
When the junta leader, Colonel Assimi Goïta got into power, Primate Ayodele warned him to be careful of his movement as he foresees an assassination attempt on his life. This came to pass in 2021 when He was stabbed while praying in the mosque.
It would also be recalled that the Junta survived an attempted coup in 2022. This was also foretold by Primate Ayodele beforehand as he warned Colonel Goita to be careful because there will be attempts to destabilize his government.
These were his words
“The new Mali president will be working under serious pressure just for him not to extend his tenure, He will want to do better but let them pray against troubles, turmoil and attack. The president must watch his movement because rebels will want to destabilize his government. The junta of the military will need to call for the support of the international community,’’
There is still more to be heard concerning Mali from the global prophet and whether or not democracy will return to the country, Primate Ayodele will reveal in the coming days.
