…Prays For The Continued Survival And Growth
Of Their Businesses
In a rare show of
solidarity and camaraderie, Fuji icon, K-1 de Ultimate, in
company with his crew, yesterday, Monday July 2, 2018, paid
surprise visits to these two wave-making business outfits inside the upscale Omole Estate, Lagos. The visits were indeed a morale booster for the owners
and workers of these two business concerns.
First to be visited was the fast-excelling in patronage eatery, popularly known
as OYO AMALA, owned by upwardly mobile and industrious
businessman, Henry Alade, a.k.a Old School. The proprietor of
Oyo Amala joint was so elated at the arrival of K-1 and his crew at his joint,
that he was grinning from ear to ear to ensure a good reception of his August
visitors. As a mark of appreciation to the August visitors, Henry Alade treated
K-1 and his crew to very sumptuous dishes, especially their most known and
advertised delicacy, AMALA and assorted soups garnished with many
condiments, which K-1 and his crew munched to their delight and
satisfaction. After the munching, K-1 took to the stand to offer incisive and
encouraging prayers and admonition for Henry Alade and his team in the culinary
business, calling on Almighty God to bless the business mightily by way of
continued and soaring patronage of the business and God’s protection of the
business environment, to which everyone in attendance shouted AMEN in unison.
The next port of call of K-1 and his team within the same Omole
Estate was the exquisite and fully-stocked supermarket aptly dubbed OLD
ENGLISH, owned by versatile and veteran society journalist Lanre
Alfred. At Old English, K-1 and his crew randomly went round the neatly
arranged items on display at the fast-expanding mall-like supermarket that has
virtually everything in stock to readily qualify as a one-stop outlet for
customers of any demand. K-1 was so impressed at the innovativeness and
business acumen of journalist-turned-entrepreneur, Lanre Alfred, that he just
couldn’t stop commending and showering encomium on him for his (Lanre’s)
ingenuity as an emerging big time player in the supermarket and groceries
business. Thus, in the same vein, like he did at Oyo Amala, he took ample time
out to pray fervently for Lanre and his businesses, to continue to grow from
strength to strength, adding that by the next time he would visit the outlet,
there would have been a tremendous improvement in the stocks and patronage of
Old English, which opened shop not quite a year ago and has gained so much
ground in the neighbourhood and even from outside the estate. To show his
appreciation to the Fuji Lord and his crew for the August visit, mercurial
Lanre Alfred gave out sundry gift items on the shelves to K-1 and his team, all
of whom were very thankful at the good gesture of the proprietor of Old
English.
By these two unprecedented visits, the Fuji
music impresario has just shown another side of him as someone who identifies
with younger folks who are aspiring to break grounds in their respective areas
of business endeavour; aside from being an astute business man himself, a colossal Fuji musician, and a big time
player in the political arena, all of which have summed up to make him an
enigma in the consciousness of many of his fans and admirers. The
Fuji king is billed to return to Canada in
few days time, to complete another round of a deserved rest, which he had to
cut short to visit Nigeria in order to attend his party, APC National Convention, in Abuja two
weeks ago, and also held a closed door meeting with President Muhammadu Buhari on the
state of the nation and the many squabbles in the party, being a chieftain of
the party.
