I commend the Lagos State Government, led by His Excellency, Akinwunmi Ambode, for the steps taken to revive the statute of Chief Oyesola Gani Fawehinmi, SAN, SAM, LL.D.
When I got a call from Alausa yesterday, informing me of this development, to unveil the rebuilt Gani Fawehinmi Statute, I was very pleased and excited, coming on the heels of his 80th post-humous birthday anniversary, on Sunday, April 22, 2018.
I urge the federal and Ondo State Governments, to immortalize this icon of peoples’ struggle, on the occasion of his 80th birthday. I also urge the National Assembly and indeed the Houses of Assembly of Lagos and Ondo States, to dedicate a substantial portion of their daily proceedings to honour Gani.
I urge all activists and lovers of Gani to join us on Sunday, April 22, 2018, at the Gani Fawehinmi Park, Ojota, at 12pm, to immortalize our hero.
Thereafter the family and friends and well wishers will gather at the Gani Fawehinmi Galleria in Alausa, at 1pm, for the 80th birthday anniversary lecture, to be delivered by Prof Wolè Soyinka.
God bless Nigeria.
Ebun-olu Adegboruwa, Esq.,
