DR RAMAN ADEDOYIN IN THE EYE OF HISTORY
The expensive words of Dr Ramon Adegoke
Atobatele Adedoyin that can change a man stagnant carrier to golden life....
In the interview He says::::
I am Dr. Ramon Adegoke Atobatele Adedoyin
My great love for education prompted me to establish Oduduwa University, Ipetumodu, The Polytechnic, Ife, Our Saviors University of America, Oduduwa Polytechnic, Lagos and Unique Citizens (University) College, Ghana.
There was a time I met a man at the Federal University of Technology, Akure (Ondo State), and he showed me so much respect and I asked if he knew me. He introduced himself as a professor and said I taught him mathematics . I met several peoplecwho would tell me they passed through me and that they are this or that.There are many people like that and they make me feel fulfilled.
The passion for teaching has always been there since my undergraduate days at the then University of Ife, now Obafemi Awolowo University.
As at then, I had a pretty picture of the future of education in Nigeria and that was how I laid the foundation of Oduduwa University, Ipetumodu, Ife north local government in Osun State
God has blessed me with good health, a loyal wife, and dutiful children.
My life is very simple and perfect but I am blessed with quality vision of better education.
Many asked if I sleep. Yes I do sleep for 3-4hours, because I use my expensive time to "read and think".
The Yorubas are an industrious tribe. We are hardworking, diligent and brilliant. We are trail blazers. So, it is not a surprise that we are at the fore front in virtually all the major professions in Nigeria today.
The south west has the highest number of industries, schools- primary, secondary and tertiary institutions in the country today.
It will interest you to know that Nigeria today has around 170 universities, comprising 46 federal, 54 states and 70 private; more than 50% of the private universities are in the south west.
In Osun State today, I am the single largest employer of labour in the state after the government directly or indirectly thereby putting food on many families table.
I am the largest single investor in tertiary education in Nigeria today apart from the federal and state governments with the establishments of Oduduwa University, Ipetumodu, Oduduwa Polytechnic, Lagos, The Polytechnic, Ife, Our Saviors University of America, and Unique Citizens (University) College, Ghana.
There was a time a particular governor passed in front of the university and he stopped. He asked the people with him why the Federal Government had to site another university so close to the Obafemi Awolowo University. One of his aides then informed him that OUI is a private institution.
I also have a host of other businesses and investments among which are; Our Saviors Tours and Visitors Company of America, New York, Hilton Hotels, Ife, Our Saviors University Properties LLC, USA, Ray Power Guards Ltd, Lagos and First Access Microfinance Bank Ltd.
I can tell you categorically today that I am one fulfilled Nigerian. I love what I am doing and I am doing what I love. Making me the President of Nigeria would not make me feel as fulfilled as I feel right now. I have been offered political appointments in the past which I turned down because it would not make me fulfilled. God has blessed me all round and I feel so fulfilled.
It Is the development and drive that I have contributed for my community that made the late Ooni of Ife, Oba Okunade Sijuade Olubuse II to have a son interest in me
The love His Imperial Majesty, Ooni of Ife, Late Oba Okunade Sijuade, Olubuse II had for me made him choose me as his successor whenever he joined his ancestors. But today politics has taken over our traditional seat of afiobaje (the king makers).
I used to believe that people were inherently reasonable and good. This process taught me that I should not assume that people can be relied upon or that other people will necessarily receive from me in the same way I give out.
Contesting for the stool of Ooni was actually very educative and interesting because I saw human beings in their true forms. People I didn’t expect betrayed me.
I see giving as my passion and lifestyle. Today my charity organization is giving, helping, leading and supporting.
I don’t womanise, and I don’t drink alcohol. I am very moderate in all that I do. I am very hard working and people know it. Lazy people can’t work with me.
I don’t want many wives. Even when I was much younger, I had the principle of one girlfriend at a time. Also, my wife is very beautiful. And she prays for me all the time.
Giving out and putting smile on people's faces gives me more joy than anything.
I was already a Multi-billionaire at the age of 55yrs.
I have made some numbers of billions of naira, I never really figured out exactly how much am worth but I think it might have been around 450billion. I know that my adjusted gross income at least one year was about 125billion Naira.
I remember then when I use to drive a white Mercedes Benz even with millions and billions in my custody.
