Some still have money, there are still Billionaires but majority of Nigerians are getting poorer.
34yrs old Dolapo Bolade surprised many of his friends and family members recently when his wife, Adebisi, was delivered of their first baby. A highly sociable young man who regularly attended parties and kept a network of revellers as buddies, there were expectations of a big gig from almost every quarter immediately the business man’s daughter, Ifeoluwa, arrived.
Men, women, young and old – all who knew him had their eyes fixed on August 31, 2016. But when the day finally arrived, Bolade shocked everyone…
“Immediately people heard that my wife had been delivered of a baby, a lot of them started calling me, asking how big the naming ceremony was going to be, whether there would be aso ebi and which musician I was hiring to perform at the event.
“There was too much expectation but inside of me, I just laughed because a lot of these people don’t seem to understand what I am passing through at the moment,” Bolade said during a friendly chat with a Punch reporter earlier in the week.
“On the eve of the naming ceremony, some friends called and even came to my house to find out how I was preparing for the next day,” he continued. “But they were all surprised when I revealed that there was not going to be any elaborate ceremony. What we simply did on that Tuesday morning was to give the baby a name, no ceremony whatsoever followed,” he added.
This is the reality in many homes today, with the poor state of the economy. If you want to do a party, the things you could buy with 50k before, now even with N110k you will struggle to meet up.
Those into catering and events planning are already complaining of low patronage.

The Ooni of Ife, Alayeluwa Oba Okunade Sijuwade is dead. He died today in London at the age of 85.Oba Sijuwade was the fifth Ooni of Ife. He climbed unto the throne on December 6, 1980. As the Ooni of Ife, he presided over the Ife territory, in the South West Nigeria but his influence went far and beyond.He came into office at the height of the supremacyfight amongst Yoruba Obas. The crisis pitched him against the Alaafin of Oyo. It festered on until Osun state was carved out of the old Oyo State.Before he became an Oba, he studied at Abeokuta Grammar School and later at Northampton College in the United Kingdom before he became a manager at Leventis stores.Oba Sijuwade’s term as Oba was characterised with political treachery, as he was one of the traditional rulers that meddled in politics. He was infamously instrumental to the annulment of June12, 1993, elections won by late Moshood Abiola. The Ooni  had also been severally fingered in the failed effort to have Senator Iyiola Omisore elected the governor of Osun state in 2011. He survived by several wives and children.

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has said that the national cut off point for screening of candidates for admission remained the minimum expectation that each candidate desirous of university admission should have.This is contained in a statement issued by the Public Relations Officer of the board, Dr Fabian Benjamin, made available to newsmen on Wednesday in Lagos.According to the statement, the attention of the board has been drawn to the challenge experienced by some candidates who could not access the University of Lagos site to register for the Post-Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME). The statement said that the board sincerely sympathised with their frustration.
“We want to seize this opportunity to state that our attention has been drawn to the agitation by some parents and students who turned out for the registration for the post JAMB screening exercise for the candidates. “We sympathise with them but wish to state categorically that the national cut off point is just the minimum expectation that each candidate desirousof university admission should have.“However, universities are at liberty to go higher than 180, depending on their peculiarities and the performance of candidates who chose them.“For instance, if over 10,000 candidates who made Unilag their first choice scored 250 and above, it will be difficult for them to go lower than 250 when they are to admit only about 7000.“I wish to state that a time will come when some universities will go up to 300 as their cut off mark, depending on the performance,’’ the statement said.It explained that because of the development, the board decided that some of the candidates who chose such institutions but fall below their cut off marks should not miss out, hence the need to send them to other schools.The statement added that such a gesture should rather be applauded, instead of condemning the Dibu Ojerinde-led JAMB management.
