Hello to the Wiki World! My name is Akinkunmi "Ado" Akinyele. I was born in
Ibadan,
Ọyọ State, Nigeria. I attended
Government College, Ibadan and the University of South-Carolina, Columbia, SC USA. I enjoy motorcycling and writing short articles. I developed my composition style by reading the books written by my father; Chief
Theophilus Adeleke Akinyele. He is a namesake of Rt. Reverend
Alexander Babatunde Akinyele, the first Anglican Diocesan Bishop of Ibadan and first native of Ibadan to obtain a University degree; whose younger brother was
HRH Sir
Isaac Babalola Akinyele, the first educatedOlubadan of Ibadan, and the second Christian to ascend the throne of Ibadan. Please help to Wikify my write up on Dr.
Kayode Fayemi, the AC gubernatorial candidate in Ekiti State, Nigeria in 2007, my write up on
Musiliu Obanikoro, and also expand my write up on General
Raji Rasaki, a former candidate in the 2007 PDP Oyo State gubernatorial primary race. My area of concentration is Yorùbá land. I created write-ups on some of my heroes like Colonel
Adekunle Fajuyi, the first military governor of Western Region Nigeria, Major
Chukwuma Kaduna Nzeogwu, who led the first military coup in Nigeria, General
Benjamin Adekunle, AKA "Black Scorpion"; who led the 3rd Marine Commando Division of the Nigerian Army during the civil war, and Hon.
Adegoke Adelabu who helped to create the
Ibadan Peoples Party, a political party which opposed the
Ègbe Ọmọ Odùduwà; a political organization that morphed into the
Action Group.
