Is The Akarigbo An Albino? >> Nigerian News - 26/01/2018

That is the query two of my reading followers posed following posting some of the oven-fresh photographs of the Kabiyesi on my Facebook platform a week ago.

 

1 of the enquirers is a veteran journalist and one-time editor of Nigeria’s most effective-ever entertainment newspaper, the Lagos Weekend, Mr Willy Bozimo. The incredible Lagos guy of the 70s and 80s, who’s made Asaba his permanent household now, was damned significant with his query that he followed it with a phone call.

 

In his experienced instruction at the University of Lagos and the Kakawa headquarters of the Everyday Times Group, "Willy B", as he is fondly referred to as, will have to have edited close to a million photographs of freshly-manicured ladies specifically, from the lens of versatile photographers like late Peter Obe, late Saka Kasunmu, Akin Adebayo, Dipo Onabanjo, Sunmi Clever-Cole, Babs Olorunkemi and the longest-serving Instances Photo Editor ever, Yusuf Oladele now the second in command to the Olowo of Owo as Sashere. But he confessed to me that the new Akarigbo came out in print as the cleanest man he has ever noticed.
