The sudden departure of Olusegun Awolowo on 27th November, 2025 was wholly unforeseen, leaving family, friends and the nation totally unprepared. It actually ripped a gaping hole in the fabric of Nigerian collective soul. At the very prime of his life, just 62 years, an age where wisdom and energy readily intersects to produce the most impactful service, this most affectionately regarded, and outstanding public figure yielded to the calling of the chariot of death rather peremptorily. The shock of his passing reverberated across every corner of the country, a poignant, pathetic reality of the debility of human existence and the cruel unpredictability of fate.

Many things happened in Nigeria last week that will trend for a time. Among them were two weighty revelations, one of which led to two ‘juicy’ resignations. There was the revelation by Aisha Buhari, the late President Muhammadu Buhari's wife, that the former president began locking his door to keep her out of his room. Reason? That he heard Villa rumours that she wanted to kill him. An old General fearing the woman who has been married to him for over 30 years!
