AYNE AUGOYE captures the story of 47-year-old deceased Nigerian inventor of mobile toilets, Mr. Isaac Durojaiye Agbetusin aka Otunba Gadafi, who will be buried today

Treading on a turf which many considered demeaning and dirty, Isaac Durojaiye Agbetusin a.k.a Otunba Gaddafi, earned a thriving sanitary business with over 19 branches in Nigeria and seven in the West African sub-region.

His story was that of perseverance and focus combined, even in the face of adversity. But at the end, he became a reference point for determined individuals desirous of making impact.

A master in branding, perhaps due to his background in Graphic Designs, late Durojaiye changed the face of sanitary health in the country and glamourised what he called ‘shit business’; a pointer to a saying that it does not matter what job one does as long as it is done diligently and legitimately.

Within a short time, his pay off line that, “Shit business is a serious business” has come to be associated with the deceased innovator.

Though the cold hands of death snatched him away last week at the age of 47, after a brief illness, Gaddafi had long etched his name in the sands of time.
