Doko's visa denial

At 21, Doko Timilehin Timothy, a student of the University of Lagos, is a testament to the success of youth Scrabble having risen through the rungs of a steeply competitive terrain. Nigeria Scrabble firmament is one not sympathetic to age, sex, disability or ability. It is a tough place to grow.

Doko has grown, nonetheless, and has emerged on the world scene. His chance to showcase his finesse, aside worldwide TV appearance, and numerous tournaments seemed to have been thwarted.

He is not going to Vegas,venue of the WESPA world championship, despite having qualified to do so in a sparkling manner. He was denied a US visa.

This is a setback we would have wished never happened.

Doko is at the crest of youthfulness with a strong mind and brimming passion for the game. He is bright and sprightly. He is winning. Yet, he will not find space among his fellow bright minds on the worldstage because of a visa denial. It is a blow too much to take.

Doko is still a university student. He has a glittering universe ahead of him. He is not likely to abscond: not a chance in the world.

This scenario likens to Syed Ismad Alli or Moiz Ulla Baig being denied visas to the world championships where they shone like a thousand galaxies. He has the chance to win it.

Doko is a citizen of the world. He should be allowed to shine where his fellow top players have the chance to glow effervescently.

We wish this denial can be revisited. We all do.

I recommend @abbeytoy, he has over active and also of great advantage

.....Call on police to investigate thoroughly and bring the culprits to book



A chief in Omu in Odogbolu area of Ogun state has been accused of setting house ablaze to implicate their opponents over land matters.



According to the press statement issued by Omoba Sanya Adedapo, General Secretary, Ofirigidi (Oloja Adekoya) Ofirigidi Dynasty, Erebe Ijebu, Ogun State, "It has been brought to the attention of the Ofirigidi (Oloja Adekoya) Descendants Family, Erebe Ijebu near Omu in Odogbolu Local Government of Ogun State, a publication in the Punch Newspaper of Friday 3rd March, 2023 with the caption: OGUN CHIEF ESCAPES DEATH AS HOODLUMS SET HOME

ABLAZE."



He clarified the doubt of the general public, that none of their family members have anything to do with the allegedly "staged" arson on the date alleged in the publication and/or any date whatsoever.



However, he called on the security agencies to investigate and unravel the mystery surrounding the alleged crime.



While he advised the general to ignore the said publication being a land grabbing tactic targeted at their family members as blatant falsehood motivated to breach public peace.



"It is grossly misleading, a bogus misrepresentation of facts accentuated by malice...The allegation was made in relation to Erebe Ijebu no doubt, but contrary to the pretentious claims and allegations in the publication, our family, the Ofirigidi (Oloja Adekoya) Descendants Family are the

owners of Erebe Ijebu town under Yoruba native laws and customs. Segun Lawal, the referenced chief in the said publication is neither a member of our family nor traditional ruler of Erebe Ijebu but a chief of Omu, a distinct community not traditionally/associated with Erebe Ijebu. It is a generally acknowledged fact that Erebe is not only older than Omu in terms of first settlement but also in other traditional respects." said Omoba Sanya Adedapo



Furthermore, he said the above publication will not have been dignified with response but this rebuttal becomes necessary to set the records straight for the general public and posterity. The facts are as follows:

"That Segun Lawal does not have any own or ancestral property whatsoever at Erebe Ijebu. Also, no house, home or any property whatsoever got burnt at Erebe Ijebu in the month of September, 2022 as alleged in the publication under reference. The only and first incidence of fire outbreak in Erebe Ijebu was self-inflicted and staged by the same Segun lawal named in the publication. It is obvious

that Segun lawal having realized his folly decided to deceive the public by backdating an event that occurred on the 18th day of February, 2023 to September, 2022."



Also, The crux of the matter is that Segun Lawal and co recently invented a name "Sangokoya Ofirigidi" similar to our family name and instituted a court matter Suit: HCJ/121/2015 at the Ijebu ode High Court

against our family claiming ownership of landed properties at Erebe Ijebu. A clear act of

impersonation to grab land.

At the trial a letter addressed to our family and signed by one of Segun Lawal's agents was

tendered against him during cross examination in court. Though the author of the said document admitted signing the letter but later conspired with Omu Division of Nigeria Police which pressed a frivolous charge of forgery against the family nominee to the throne of Erebe Ijebu, Oloja Olawunmi

Samuel Oluwasegun.



He said the Magistrate Court, Odogbolu not only discharged and acquitted the accused, but also found the police complicit in manufacturing a frivolous charge to suit certain interests. Rather than Segun Lawal

and his gang of land grabbing hoodlums await the outcome of the case they instituted, they have resorted to self-help.



Oloja Samuel Oluwasegun said four (4) of Segun Lawal and co hoodlums were successfully arrested by Omu Division of the

Nigerian Police in the morning of the 18th day of February, 2023. In less than two (2) hours after the release of the arrested land grabbers from police custody they proceeded with their principals to stage burning of one abandoned building in Erebe Ijebu and made video coverage thereof, circulated same on social media. Segun Lawal alleged in the video that the complainant who got his thugs

arrested in the morning of the same day burnt the building. A wicked, criminally ingenious act intentionally designed to implicate our family members and escape prosecution for their own crime of harming artisans working on site and destroying a building under construction in our family compound.



He said, Adeyemi Oluwole, Adebola Ogunkoya and one Fidelis Joseph accused of arson in the said publication are neither related to our family nor found at Erebe Ijebu but deliberately presented as such by land grabbers in police uniform to implicate our family members and innocent citizens for crimes willfully created by the complainant and their witnesses over civil case involving land.



Segun Lawal's claim of inviting the attention of the Governor of Ogun State, Chairman of Odogbolu Local Government notwithstanding, he and his cohorts use of land agents "Ajagungbale" to effect illegal sale of our family land and his life threatening criminal schemes smacks of self delusion and hypocrisy, clear manifestation of desperation to pervert the cause of justice.



He maintained that the family will not hesitate to report any police officer whose stock in trade is manufacturing of charges, intimidation and harassment of innocent citizens without investigation to suit his paymasters

whims and caprices, as law abiding citizens, the Ofirigidi (Oloja Adekoya) Descendants



The Family shall continue to protect her legitimate rights and privileges in peace loving way devoid of crude and cruel behaviors that can breach public peace.

Today, the threshold of victory is quaking in the scrabble world in far away Lusaka, Zambia and the reverberation is being felt globally as Enoch Nwali is crowned the 14th Africa Scrabble Champion, having consistently led the pack from the blast of the whistle till the finishing point. Some exceptional stuff of genius.

Perhaps, when I wrote "what is in a name", analysing his exploits in the course of the championship, many didn't know I was being clairvoyant. But thank God Providence gifted him this. For he has put in the works, he is humble and committed, that I have always prayed that his humility takes him to the pinnacle of success. Cohen, as he is fondly called, finished 5th in the last WSC, and this has opened the floodgate of victory for him. He was dressed the Champion at the last Egbele Classic, finished 2nd at the recent West Africa Scrabble Championship, such that his consistency is like rivers emptying their waters into the sea. In Enoch's case, the hardwork is beginning to yield great dividends. It is the dawn of a new era, a new king in the kingdom, having played the last four games of the 32 games championship against African finest, 2015 World Scrabble Champion, Wellington Jighere, stiff opposition, gruelling encounter, brain racking games, and triumphing at the end, shows Enoki is here to stay.

Brilliantly, the 26year old of the university of Lagos, won 24 games and drew 1. He several gold medals at the last National Sports Festival and at NUGA games. He has been consistent with this stellar performance that he is now among the world's top 10 going by WESPA rating. He is one top ceded to represent the country at the forth coming World Scrabble Championship in Las Vegas, USA next year as his thinking cap is always intact.

Excitedly, the scrabble community across the globe, is in frenzy, Africa is brimming with joy, and Nigeria and Nigerians are in ecstatic mood. The feeling is simply orgasmic. We will celebrate this to the heavens, corporate bodies should have a feeler, government should acknowledge the honour, and reward handsomely. The brilliance of this feat is simply meteoric. We cannot say it enough, we must sing it loud and clear, as we unitedly chorus HEARTY CONGRATULATIONS ENOKI!!!

The people of Erebe Ijebu in Odogbolu Local Government Area of Ogun State have raised alarm over life threatening tactics of certain land grabbers from Omu a neighboring community to Erebe. According to the Chairman, Erebe Community Development Association, Otunba Olugbenga Olukoya and Secretary, OLOJA ADEKOYA OFIRIGIDI ANIKINAIYA FAMILY, Erebe Ijebu, Omoba Sanya Adedapo and other elders of the town, a group of hoodlums numbering over thirty (30) sponsored by Mssrs Segun Lawal, Abayomi Adelaja, Razak Oladipupo and Rafiu Sanmori armed with cudgels, guns and other dangerous weapons invaded Erebe Ijebu on the 11th day of March, 2022 at about 9:00pm whereat they caused mayhem. As law abiding citizens, a save our soul petition dated 12/3/2022 was written to the Area Commander, Ijebu Police Division while the Community's Solicitor wrote another petition to the Inspector General of Police. While
Erebe community have refrained from making media publication on the matter pending conclusion of recent Police investigation, for reasons best known to these land grabbers via an online blogging platform "Grassroots Today" on Thursday 11th August, 2022 raised baseless false information concerning Erebe Ijebu amongst which was claim by one Segun Lawal to have been one "Olu Erebe" or "Baale".Ordinarily, it is not in Erebe Ijebu's leadership's stand to dignify this group of established land grabbers with response but this rebuttal becomes necessary to set the records straight for the general public.
1. The founding family and customary owners of Erebe Ijebu named after a former Of Oloja of Erebe Ijebu is the Oba Adekoya Ofirigidi Anikinaiya Family.
2. One Razak Oladipupo, Rafiu Sanmori and Segun Lawal all of Omu near Erebe Ijebu recruited services of one Alhaji Samsudeen Abayomi Adelaja, a chieftain of Road Transport Employees Association of Nigeria (RTEAN) who deals in land to sponsor a land litigation suit: HCJ/82/2009 against Oloja Adekoya Ofirigidi family, Erebe Ijebu.
3. Their case against OLOJA ADEKOYA OFIRIGIDI FAMILY Suit:HCJ/82/2009 wherein the land sponsorer's clients claimed to be members of one ALADE OGBE family of Omu was strucked out by the Ijebu Ode High Court in the year 2014.
4. Perhaps out of ignorance of the maxim "no one approbate and reprobate on the same matter” Abayomi Adelaja and his clients which real town is Omu with no connection whatsoever to Erebe Ijebu recently sued Oloja Adekoya Ofirigidi Anikinaiya Family, Erebe Ijebu with another name "Sangokoya" to forge a new connection.
5. It is bewildering that a letter dated 5th February, 2016 addressed thus;
THE OLORI EBI,
OLOJA ADEKOYA OFIRIGIDI ROYAL FAMILY, EREBE IJEBU
titled: invitation to OMU Eleni Day was signed by same Abayomi Adelaja as President Omu Area Central Development Council (OACDC).
6. Mindful that his above mentioned letter to Erebe Ijebu is an incontrovertible evidence, Abayomi Adelaja sometimes in the year 2018 abused authority of the Omu Police Division which pressed trumped up charge numbered MOD/46C/2018 against Erebe Community's representative, Omoba Olawunmi Samuel on a flimsy allegation of forgery of the above referred letter.
7. Senior Magistrate Idowu Olayinka in a well considered judgement on a no case submission discharged and acquitted the defendant. Through plethora of witnesses and documentary evidences the court established that OLOJA ADEKOYA OFIRIGIDI FAMILY is the family existing in reality while Abayomi Adelaja's dubiousness was noted.
8. Though vacant, title of the traditional ruler of Erebe Ijebu is the Oloja not Baale or Olu Erebe. Through communal efforts, a befitting modern edifice is been erected on the sacred Grove of the Oloja of Erebe not a health centre as the land grabbers claimed and are hereby challenged to present to the general public receipt which Oloja ADEKOYA OFIRIGIDI FAMILY issued handing over the ancestral "Oju Oshii" to anyone or group to erect structure over it.
9. Judgement in Suit:HCJ/82/2009, Oba Anikilaya Ruling House, Ijebu Ode's memo of 24/01/2007 and Association of Osugbo Ijebuland's judgement dated 04/09/2009 affirm Oloja Adekoya Ofirigidi family's ownership of Erebe Ijebu town.
10. It is appalling that in a nation where their is law, these land grabbers who have now metamorphosize from ALADE OGBE into SANGOKOYA without any court judgement or documentary record linking them to Erebe go about with impunity pretending to be representatives of Erebe Ijebu.
11. That these land grabbers enjoy the unflinching encouragement of their town's Oba is an open secret. How such a privileged office could stoop so low to repeatedly cause crisis over very straight land matters is a subject of concern as it was recently discovered during trial in Suit:HCJ/121/2015 that false information was presented by their Oba to Ogun State government in a bid to name one of his men (Segun Lawal) as Baale over Erebe Ijebu.
12. While appropriate measures had been taking to address these flagrant resort to fraud by these land grabbers and their collaborators, they are by this publication reminded of the fact that the first settlement and royal rights of Erebe Ijebu over Omu cannot be rubbished under whatever guise.
13. Knowing that these expert impersonators are fond of raising false information hiding under unfounded aegis hence, purport of informing the general public of their true identities and antics .

Sweetheart I'm on his side on this,its always wise for a lady never to date a man in her age group, a man must be stable financially before thinking marriage and he already made you understand that,the only mistake you made is dating him.Since he's not ready please look for someone who's ready and settle down with him,never let your emotions direct your thinking in marriage issues.Please let him go so as not to waste more time as you already have. Follow this tips:Cut off from a relationship that has no head way after six months to avoid stories that touch.As for me I already resolve never to date a man below 50yrs because most Nigerian men below 50 are still struggling.Such a messed up country
