I ran into the name Otunba Sola Olatunji in the social media because he used to write a lot about Ondo State. I must have published more than three articles by him in Ikale News. Mee ma fo onuya ghon gha rin. Just imagine the words coming out of his mind, just because he is consultant to Okitipupa Oil Palm Plc!

After reading his insult on my ancestry, I called one or two people to find out if he is related to Baba Alaba Abo, the late veteran tailor and community leader in Igbotako in those days. Lo and behold, Alaba Abo was the person who transmuted to Otunba Sola Olatunji, as I was told. He claims now that he is from Erekiti.
