GloriousGbola:
We should call it Tinubu derangement syndrome. And recognize it is a terminal affliction. And it manifests everywhere. One of them just started creating unnecessary drama in a whatsapp group yesterday.

Let their man continue chasing his imaginary man-date while the rest of the world moves on to more important things.

This man will soon be cancelled.

TINUBU APPOINTS AMBASSADOR ADEKUNLE ADELEKE AS STATE CHIEF OF PROTOCOL

The newly appointed SCOP, assumed duty today, Monday 29th.

An accomplished lawyer, the Oyo State born career diplomat joined the Nigerian Foreign Service in 1993 and rose through the ranks, serving in various missions abroad and at the Headquarters, including the State House.

His appointment is considered well-deserved by his colleagues as he takes over from Ambassador Lawal Kazuare.

Adeleke comes to the job with a huge pedigree as a career Foreign Service Officer which he is expected to deploy to change the face of diplomatic protocol in the Villa.

His last appointed was as Nigeria’s Permanent Representative to the African Union (AU) and Ambassador to Ethiopia, where he served with distinction and represented the country creditably and honourably.

Born in 1967, in Ibadan, Oyo State, Ambassador Adeleke attended the prestigious Olivet Baptist High School, Oyo, for his secondary education and thereafter, graduated from the prestigious Obafemi Awolowo University, lle-Ife with a Bachelor of Laws degree (with Honours) in June 1990.

He then proceeded to the Nigerian Law School, Victoria Island, Lagos for his professional training to become a Barrister and Advocate of the Supreme Court of Nigeria in 1991, having satisfied all conditions prescribed by law.

He was duly called to the Nigerian Bar by the Body of Benchers on December 10, 1991.

He joined the Foreign Service in 1993.

After his diplomatic training at the Nigerian Foreign Service Academy, Lagos in 1994, he served in various capacities at home and abroad, including, Office of the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Office of the Minister of State for Foreign Affairs, Office of the Permanent Secretary (MFA), Administration Department, Legal & Treaties Division, Physical Planning Division, Global Institutions Division, Overseas Communications & ICT Division as well as in the Protocol Department, as Deputy Chief of Protocol/Acting Chief of Protocol.

He also served as the Assistant Director of Protocol to three of Nigeria’s former Presidents, viz: President Olusegun Obasanjo (2007), President Umaru Musa Yar’Adua (2007-2010), and President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan (2010) at the State House Protocol, Aso Rock Presidential Villa, Abuja.

Also, while at Headquarters, he served as an active member of various Special Committees as well as Top Management and Policy-making Committees in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Before his appointment to the AU and Ethiopia, Ambassador Adeleke had served in many of Nigeria’s diplomatic missions notably Beijing, (China), Brasilia (Brazil), Warsaw (Poland), London (United Kingdom), and Dublin (Ireland), where he was Deputy Head of Mission.

He was part of Nigeria’s delegation for the legal review of the Constitutive Act of the African Union in 2002 and to several Summits and International Conferences of ECOWAS, the African Union, the Commonwealth, the Community of Democracies, the Group of Seven (7) and the United Nations High-Level meetings (both in Geneva and New York) at different times in his career.

He has contributed significantly to the development and articulation of Nigeria’s Foreign Policy and diplomatic practices with an emphasis on institutional development, bringing to bear his legal background, in the areas of democracy, security, and peace-keeping, the transformation of the Organization of African Unity to the African Union as well as adherence to diplomatic protocols and communications, amongst others.

Adeleke is a member of the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) and the Association of Foreign Relations Professionals of Nigeria. He enjoys playing chess, lawn tennis, and golf.

He is married to Elizabeth Tolulope and they are both blessed with three children, two grandchildren.

The problem for me concerning this subsidy is an issue of "trust".

In an advanced country or democracy, if the government says, we're taking money away from this venture and funneling or diversifying it into another venture, but there might be short term pain for long term gain, people can then boldy argue the merits or demerits of the issue but knowing for sure that those funds would not be tampered with.l and everyone can monitor how those public funds are used.

So for me Personally, if Obi is president today and is telling me, he will remove subsidy and the funds will be diverted towards other more fruitful venture, I'm more inclined to believe this knowing his antecedents with handling public funds and knowing the obstacles he overcame to win that seat.

However, in a kakisto-plutocracy under BAT which is surely going to continue our rotten style of absolutely corrupt politics of and for the elite, how on earth do I sacrifice the little gain to suffer times 10 when I know the money gotten will simply be funneled towards corrupt politicians pockets again?

Jonathan slashed subsidy by a bit and set up the "subsidy scheme" in 2013 or so, we all saw how that scheme became another venue for government corruption.

If there was trust in the government, then we could argue the merits and demerits of subsidy, but the fact that the government about to enforce this is one that was announced like a thief in the night with a stolen certificate. I have no personal desire to suffer for a lost cause.
