A patient man like Otunba Gani Adams gets his reward at last. This is indeed true.
Having waited a long while for another child, Otunba Gani Adams, the national coordinator of the Oodua People’s Congress (OPC), has been rewarded. The bespectacled man and his wife, Erelu Mojisola, welcomed a baby girl on Tuesday, August 29, throwing the family into celebration mood.
Unlike a lot of couples, the road to Otunba Adams welcoming his first child was not really a smooth one. His first child arrived on Sunday, April 8, 2012, nine years after their marriage. It also took him another five years to get an addition to his family. Ganiyu is the leader of a faction of the Oodua Peoples Congress, a secessionist and nationalist organisation based in Nigeria, which supports a sovereign state for the Yoruba people. Oodua Peoples Congress was formed in 1994 as a socio-cultural group to promote Yoruba people and culture.

As the founding member and National Coordinator of the Oodua Peoples Congress, Gani rose to nationwide popularity after Inspector General of Police Musiliu Smith declared him wanted in 2000 with a financial reward of N100,000 for his group’s involvement in violent clashes. He was however arrested on 22 August 2001 but was later released after being held in prisons in Lagos, Abeokuta and Abuja.
