Humility is, ordinary, a virtue. With humility, there is a down-to-earth disposition, a readiness to listen to others, a willingness to accord honour to whom honour is due and a desire to forge cooperation even with those who disagree with you. For BABATUNDE JAMIU OLAWUMI, humility is a defining value which cannot be compromised. Having worked outside the State of Osun and indeed in Osun for many years, he has done the unthinkable many times - proffering solutions to governance problems, formulating enviable proposals to state governments with respect and due process, even outside Osun, as a partner in progress. Mostly, bowing in reverence to leaders and especially men of God and other citizens is the peak of all.
To (JBO), Jamiu Babatunde Olawumi's opponents, this is "demeaning". His humility is, in their judgment. This easily calls to mind the story of king David in the Holy Bible also known as Prophet Daud in the Holy Qur'an. When the Ark of covenant was being moved from one location to the other, David forgot his status and danced in reverence to God. His wife Michael, berated him for belitting the throne with his " unbefitting " public conduct. She died childless while God called David "the man after my own heart". Humility is not a vice. #(JBO)ForAGreaterOsun
