Best Minister of Information ever in this Country.

I use to think Jerry Gana was the best, until this guy showed up. This is an intellectual man, that knows the workings of the Media both in and out.I Salute you, you are a great man.

This is one thing u cant take away from an average Yoruba man..They so much cherish their culture, that is why they think other tribe in Nigeria shu adopt the language..Imagine our entertainment industry hardly any track without yoruba:check any institutions or organizations they are well represented.
