His maternal great grandfather was Oba Karunwi I, the First Osile Oke-Ona, Egba in Abeokuta (1897 to 1899). Oba David Sokunbi Karunwi 11, (1904 to 1918) his maternal grand uncle was the first educated and Christian traditional ruler in Egbaland. He laid the foundation stone of St. James African Church, Idi-Ape, Abeokuta. He was crowned on a very unique day of Easter Monday 04/04/04 by the Late Bishop Oluwole. Young Adedapo attended St. George's School, Zaria from 1941 to 1946. At an impressionable age of eight, his parents - providentially sent him to Abeokuta (Abeokuta Girls' School 1946-1948) to have a feel of his roots and preparing him as it were for the great responsibility nature has in stock for him. His primary school years ended at Mrs. Funmilayo Ransome- Kuti's class in Kemta Abeokuta 1949 to 1950. In 1951, the young Tejuoso was admitted to Abeokuta grammar school easily one of the best schools of that period. He was lucky to have the respected Rev. Israel Oludotun Ransome-Kuti, a disciplinarian as the principal of the school. www.obatejuosobooks.com________________________________________14 Adedapo distinguished himself as a brilliant student and passed the West African School Certificate Examination in division one in 1956, the same year he was appointed the Senior Prefect of the school. As a young lad, Dapo Tejuoso had his own dreams; his ambition was to become a Medical Doctor because the profession was (is) highly respected in those days. As a major prerequisite for his medical training, he did his Advanced Level Studies at the Westham College of Technology, London between 1957 and 1958. Before completing his 'A' Level, he gained admission into the renowned University, Trinity College, Dublin (TCD) in the Republic of Ireland in October 1958 for his Medical Education. Given the strigent requirements of the first big three Universities in Great Britain and Ireland - Oxford, Cambridge and Trinity College - Dapo, as an undergraduate, had to study arts subjects along with the medical courses. So in June 1962, after four years, he bagged the Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) degree. In June 1964, he further bagged the degree of Bachelor of Medicine (M.B), Bachelor of Surgery (CH.B) and Bachelor of Arts in Obstetrics (BAO). In 1967 he was automatically awarded the Master of Arts (M.A.) degree of Trinity College, Dublin (T.C.D.). Dapo qualified as a Medical Doctor at the young age of 26 and returned to Nigeria bubbling with enthusiasm and high hopes to begin a medical career. For his housemanship he was at the 15 10Years ON Lagos University Teaching Hospital (Luth) under the watchful eyes of Professors Ade Elebute, Akin Adesola and Monnekoso, who combined to grill him in turns, in the practice of surgery and medicine. Not satisfied with his professional attainments and driven by the quest for professional excellence. In September 1966 Dr. Dapo Tejuoso went back to Britain and within a period of three and half years, he attended a number of Universities for his post-graduate programmes in Medicine - Universities of Liverpool for his Diploma in Tropical Medicine and Hygiene (D.T.M. & H.), Bristol University for Diploma in Public Health (D.P.H.) and the University of London for his diploma in Industrial Health (D.I.H.). He has since become a fellow of the Medical Council of General Medical Practitioners (F.M.C.G.M.P.) and also a fellow of the West African College of Physicians (F.W.A.C.P). Dr. Tejuoso finally retuned to Nigeria in February 1970 to set up his highly successful Medical practice, the nucleus of which was, and still is the Teju Industrial Clinic Limited which has now metamorphosed into the Iyalode Bisoye Tejuoso I lospital (I.B.T.H). Following the death of his father in December 1968, Dr. Tejuoso had to combine with his industrialist mother to establish and tend the fledging Teju Foam Industry which was incorporated in 1970. It was his experience in Foam which helped to develop his business ethics that a businessman needs not be dubious or ruthless to be successful. What is required, www.obatejuosobooks.com________________________________________16 according to him, is the necessary foresight, honesty, perseverance, the fear of God and the blessing of God more importantly. In the immensely successful life of Dr. Dapo Tejuoso, his mother Chief (Mrs.) Bisoye Tejuoso (O.O.N.) until her death on September 19,1996, remained a veritable source of inspiration. In his autobiography "The Ultimate Honour" (1989), Dr. Tejuoso admitted that he got his business inspiration from the diligence and business acumen of his mothef. It was these qualities and much more which earned her the prestigious title of the third Iyalode Egba, a Chieftaincy title bestowed on the leading industrialist on the 24th of January 1982 by the Alake, Kabiyesi Oba Oyebade Lipede. It is possible that Dr. Dapo Tejuoso's wide ranging business endeavours may have made the idea of being a Rotarian attractive to him, given the high visibility of members of this International Elite Club. But more importantly, what inspired him into Rotary was that it is a selfless service-oriented organisation, as exemplified in its aim "Service Above Self". Dr. Tejuoso joined the Rotary Club of Ikeja on the 19th of February 1973. For the First five years he was not a very active member until July 1978 when he was made a director of community service, a feat he achieved without an election. He later rose (this time by election) to become the Vice-President of the Club, an elevation which also earned him the post of the president for 1980/81 Rotary year. His achievements were significant and it included the 17 10Years ON establishment of the Rotary Clubs in Isolo and Ilupeju. In 1980/81 under his presidency, his Club won the only meritorious award available in Rotary in Nigeria then, that is the significant achievement award.

No part of this publication may be reproduced, stored in a retrieval system, or transmitted in any form or by any means electronic, mechanical, photocopying, or otherwise, without the prior permission of the copyright owner. © Olusegun Osoba and Yusufu Bala Usman ISBN e-book edition 978-574-69-1-4 First printed January 2019 i Dedication In memory of Yusufu Bala Usman and other fallen heroes of the struggle for a better Nigeria. ii Acknowledgements The publication of this book had its genesis in 2017, even before the creation of the Yusufu Bala Usman Institute, while some of us were associated with Ceddert. The initial idea came from Attahiru Bala Usman, who mentioned that people had been asking him where they could get copies of this rare but well known manuscript which was virtually impossible to obtain. It lay on shelves of activists and scholars since its initial launching as a mimeographed document in 1976 but had never been published. Thus we began the journey of reviving the document and getting it into print. First of all, we were not sure of the whereabouts of Dr. Segun Osoba, particularly since General Olusegun Obasanjo had pronounced him dead in his memoirs, My Watch, where he mentioned that both of the authors of the Minority Report were no longer alive. Fortunately we found that Dr. Osoba was very much alive and living in Ijebu Ode.

  • The Universalism of the Magna Carta with Specific Reference to Freedom of Religion: Parallels in the Contemporary and Traditional Law of Nigeria
    THE UNIVERSALISM OF THE MAGNA CARTA WITH SPECIFIC REFERENCE TO FREEDOM OF RELIGION: PARALLELS IN THE CONTEMPORARY AND TRADITIONAL LAW OF NIGERIA. PRESENTED BY:- PROFESSOR AKIN IBIDAPO-OBE FACULTY OF LAW UNIVERSITY OF LAGOS AKOKA, LAGOS NIGERIA [email protected] [email protected] 234-8033943596 234-8188561624 1.0 INTRODUCTION The Magna Cartra is undoubtedly the most famous ‘human rights’ document in contemporary human history. Its popularity is attributable not only to its comparative antiquity, nor its source as emanating from one of the world’s “super powers” but to the universalism of its precepts. The many extrapolations and interpretations of its socially contextual provisions will be the focus of our discussion in segment one of this presentation, with particular reference to its religious antecedents. On the subject of religion,” an early clarification of our understanding of the concept might not be out of place as we will deal with other key concepts of the topic of discourse such as “the traditional or customary law of Nigeria” and the “contemporary law of Nigeria”. “Religion” Religion is a powerful media of the human essence, always present at every moment of our life, embedded in man’s innermost being and featuring in all the great and minor events of life – birth, education, adolescence, adulthood, work, leisure, marriage childbirth, well-being, sickness and, death. A. C. Bouquet tells us that “anyone, who is inside a worthy scheme of religion is well aware that to deprive him of that scheme is to a large extent, so to speak, to disembowel his life”.

Preface to the Royal Roots A Woman Industrialist: A Biography of Chief Mrs. Bisoye Tejuoso by Mrs. Omodele Karunwi is being preserved in its entirety because Mama was seen, spoken to, and her daily activities were captured in the book. A remarkable statement in the foreword to the book by a renowned scholar, diplomat, administrator of highest esteem, Pa S. O. Adebo, touched me deeply and is hereby summarised. - The last paragraph - "Mrs. Karunwi's book will not be the only book to be written on this remarkable daughter, Chief Mrs. Bisoye Tejuoso, of Egba land. But it is the first and Mrs. Karunwi deserves commendation for having written in a style so lucid and so pleasant to read" signed S. O. Adebo 28 May, 1991. - And as a cognac drink after a good meal, the editor Mrs Omodele Karunwi in her Preface had this to say; "Chief Bisoye Tejuoso has played her role successfully as a mother and head of her family, as a religious leader and an industrialist".

Okoroafor, former Senator and several other pro-democracy activists The military government in Nigeria has arrested and charged with treason prominent critics who have urged it to step down in favour of a civilian government. Former members of the Senate and House of Representatives, which were dissolved after a military coup in November 1993, have called for the reinstatement of democratic institutions. The security police are currently seeking other pro-democracy activists, and Amnesty International fears that more prisoners of conscience will be imprisoned. Treason is an offence punishable by death in Nigeria. On 1 June 1994 former members of the Senate issued a statement urging General Sani Abacha, the head of the military government, to stand down as head of state. This followed a secret meeting on 30 May of about two-thirds of the disbanded 91-member senate. On 2 June the security police arrested Ameh Ebute, former President of the Senate, for having convened the meeting. On 3 June Chief Olusegun Osoba, former Governor of Ogun State, was arrested. On the same day former members of the House of Representatives met and also called on the military government to resign by 11 June; former civilian state governors were also reported to have held a meeting.
