He that will one day lead must first learn how to follow







Life is a process and in stages. For you to be a graduate, you have to pass through the process and allow the process to equally pass through you. In life, you crawl, staggered, walk before running. Wanting to do former" be the later' would only end with disaster. From primary education to secondary then to teriarry education. The two analogies given are equally applicable to once accession" to leadership role. 


There are some managers that believe that leaders are born while some are of the opinion that they are made. Which ever the stance", either born or made, one thing that is sacrosanct is the fact that such person must grow through the ladder and in doing so, he must watch and learn from people before him.


Examples replete", both home and abroad, religious stories and contemporaries" of loyal followers that diligently understudy their superiors, acquired the necessary tutelages", worked and excelled tremendously. The story of Biblical Elijah and Elisha readily comes to mind.


Otunba Kehinde Almaroof Oloyede, the executive chairman of Oshodi-Isolo local government is a classical case study, a democrat to the core, a Progressive by choice, and a disciple" of Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu by devotion and passion. He is also a diligent and studious student of Asiwaju School of Politics. 


No wonder he is excelling and breaking new barriers as the chairman of the council. His leadership style, ability to peacefully resolve tough issues, humanitarian nature and his natural tactical capacity stand him out. His unprecedented love for the youths, his eagle eyes for talents and his passion to nurture, motivated and encourage such individuals are traits he surely inherited from his political father, Asiwaju. 


Oshodi-Isolo Local Government is on the right trajectory with Otunba Oloyede as the helmsman. He has acquired the needed skills, tutors while critically understanding the sage of our time, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu. He that will one day lead must surely learn to be a follower truly.
