STRONG, LOYAL, AND PATRIOTIC PROGRESSIVISM IN MR. JAMIU BABATUNDE OLAWUMI

From time immemorial, Mr. Jamiu Babatunde Olawumi has been an asset of non replica to the progressive fold in the State of Osun and most especially, to the Southwestern Nigeria. In the last few years, Mr. Jamiu Babatunde Olawumi as a journalist in the state broadcasting corporation (OSBC) and other available opportunities availed to him, thrived in bold attempts, pilot, pivot and steamed professionally, the tide of progresivism in the State of Osun. Which recorded notable and great paradigm shift in the progressive awareness.

As much as possible, JO made meaningful contributions to progressive family on the platform of selfless service hinged on virtues of discipline, diligence, loyalty, professionalism, and resilience in all task progressive awareness (advertisements, programs, political prologue and what have you) considered as unbearable effrontery to the government in power; during his service at the state broadcasting corporation, even though constrained by his profession and at the risk of his career. Alas, the emergence of Jamiu Babatunde Olawumi, worked his way up the ladder with firmness and constituency.

Patriotically progressive, he was in the van that oust Oyinlola's PDP brigandage and incommunicado era in 2007 election. Also, was constantly harassed to the point of almost leaving his profession but he remained hopeful, thrilled, and firm on the progressive task. Indeed, glory is not easily gotten. It is with pain and commitment. Also, you necessarily have to get your hands dirty to reap a bountiful reward. As the saying goes, "little drops of water makes an ocean". Bear in mind, therefore, starting small neither limits you nor define the height you can attain.
