Congratulations to Aare Afe Babalola, SAN , on this great achievement worthy of emulation. No wonder Papa,you remain a great role model to millions of youths all over Africa. Many people did not even know that this legal luminary is a great philantropist and a very humble Nigeria. Here is a man whose name is now synonimous with excellence. A BUAD, the University established by him to give opportunities to thousand of Nigerian youths to pursue their academic,professional and educational ambitions remained a source of pride to Ekiti people in particular, the Yorubas, generally. Long live Aaare Afe Babalola, Long live ABUAD, Long live Ekiti kete, Long live Federal Republic of Nigeria.
We will review and take appropriate action.
