Like Saul of Tarsus left his old ways behind and became a new creature after a divine encounter on the road to Damascus, Olamiju Alao-Akala, the eldest son of former Oyo State governor Otunba Adebayo Alao-Akala, has undergone a transformation.
Gone are the days of wild parties with other silver spoon kids. The fun-loving dude, who delighted in hanging out from one fun spot to another, has left many people wondering what could have occasioned the remarkable transformation.
According to The Nation, in place of his hitherto happening nature is his devotion to his wife of three years, Hadiza, the daughter of the foremost industrialist, Alhaji Rasak Okoya of the Eleganza fame.
Since his father left office, Olamiju has grown in leaps and bounds and now shoulders many responsibilities. The graduate of Computer Science from Lead City University, who also holds a master’s degree from Buckingham University in the UK, presides over a haulage business, a record label and several other enterprises.
Olamiju is becoming more and more popular in his home state by the day. He has followed his father’s footsteps and joined politics. His first foray into elective office is a success. He recently became the chairman of Ogbomoso Local Government Area of the state.
