Olawale Daniel
“A religious person without a job is dead. (Ìgbàgbọ́ ti ko níí ìṣe, òkú ní. - Yorùbá proverb)”
Olawale Daniel

Olawale Daniel
“We are educated for whatever sake. For Nigeria to move forward, we must stop comparison and ignore religious views in dealing with sensitive issues that can make or mar our Country's existence. Evil, evil is evil, coming from either of the geopolitical regions. We were humans before we choose our religion.”
Olawale Daniel
