Elder Matthew Adetifa, A Beacon of Excellence — Says Oyo APC Governorship Hopeful, Dr. Adewale Kolapo Kareem (AKK). I find it both a duty and a delight to celebrate a man whose life is a masterclass in leadership, cultural preservation, and selfless service. Elder Matthew Adetifa is not merely a member of the Nigerian diaspora, but also a formidable stronghold and a towering figure of influence within the Victorian community in Melbourne and across the broader Australian community. Your tenure as the former President of the Yoruba Heritage and Cultural Association of Victoria (YHCAV) remains a gold standard for institutional leadership. Through your vision, you ensured that the rich tapestry of our Yoruba heritage remained seen thousands of miles away from home, providing a cultural anchor for our people in the diaspora and advancing a sense of identity that continues to inspire generations.  Your character is defined by a warmth that is as infe...

Oyo 2027: Eleruwa of Eruwa Commends APC Governorship Hopeful, Dr. Adewale Kolapo Kareem (AKK)’s Forward-Thinking Vision, Says Oyo and Nigeria Are Rich in Talent. The Eleruwa of Eruwa affirmed during my visit that our meeting reinforced his belief that Oyo State and Nigeria are blessed with many brilliant and talented individuals capable of transforming society. Kabiyesi commended me for clearly stating that I am not in this race to rebuke or fault anyone, but rather to propagate what I intend to do differently ahead of 2027.

Oyo 2027: Loyalty in Leadership — A Timely Reflection for All, Says Oyo State APC Gubernatorial Aspirant, Dr. Adewale Kolapo Kareem (AKK).

Oyo 2027: Loyalty in Leadership — A Timely Reflection for All, Says Oyo State APC Gubernatorial Aspirant, Dr. Adewale Kolapo Kareem (AKK). Every human cause has given premium credit to loyalty as the quiet foundation that holds everything upright. When you speak ill of your leader or act in ways that undermine their authority, you do not merely damage that relationship; you reveal a character that no one, friend or foe, can fully trust. Even those who oppose your leader will hesitate to rely on you, knowing that the same tongue that dishonours one master can easily turn against another. This truth is as old as human association itself: a man who betrays his own captain is rarely welcomed on any ship. True loyalty is not blind submission; it is the deliberate choice to honour the trust placed in you, to stand firm in support even when the winds are against you. That is the mark of a worthy follower and, ultimately, of a worthy leader.  For every ...
