Abraham Adesanya 1922-2008

Some years ago,I was at the launch of Freedom Jail,a book written by Ayo Opadokun, a former NADECO chieftain. One of the special guests was the late Pa Abraham Adesanya (1922-2008), a lawyer,politician and activist who contributed to the achievement of Nigeria's return to democracy. I will never forget the story Pa Adesanya told everyone at the event. He told us the story of a man who left Kano or Kaduna and was heading to Lagos. After travelling several miles, he got to Ilor in, he asked "Are we not in Lagos yet?", they told him...we will soon get there, when he got to

My Photo Bank #Ilovemycanon

A local refuse collector captured from the lense of my Canon in 2014.He was very excited and proud of his work.-Photo:Niyi Tabiti A friend once told me why she like posting photos on Facebook.She said when her laptop crashed and she lost her phone, the only place she could get her old pictures was on Facebook.The samething with blogger.   I snapped this roadside vendor of TV remote control in Ikeja,Lagos.  You get to see most of your works such as articles and photos from way back because unlike your laptop, blogspot can not crash without adequate notice to users. So i am going to keep some of them here too for posterity.My canon camera is fantastic!Easy capture,good images, especially if you know how to handle the settings.  The resolution has been reduced.You can steal images but respect yourself,lol...credit!  I captured this newspaper vendor at Ogba in Lagos.
