Read what Daddy G.O. had to say about his son on the special occasion…
”One of the happiest days of my life was 29th of January of 1968, the day Adeolu was born. He came late for he stayed more than ten months in the womb. He was born with wrinkles all over his body but he was born strong and healthy.
He grew very rapidly and made up for the extra days he had kept us waiting. By the time of his birth, my hobby, my passion was photography. I had my own little studio fully equipped. And so Adeolu is one of the most photographed children ever born.
I photographed him everyday, morning, afternoon, evening and at times when he was asleep. The first day he tried to sit up, supported by pillows, I photographed him.
When he tried to crawl, I recorded it. When he took his first -steps I photographed him. I photographed him on the steps of the house, on the open field, inside a deep river, river Oni, perched on a rock.

We had fun, I carried him on my back, shoulders, head everywhere, we were so very much attached that we made his mother jealous.
I remember that when the suggestion came that I should send him abroad to study, I was reluctant to be separated from him. When the pressure mounted on, I agreed that if he gets the visa then he should go.
I was hoping the embassy, would turn him down. They did not, in fact his interview was very brief. So I had no choice but to let him go.
Adeolu grew up strong diligent and very meticulous. We both share a passion for cleanliness and attention to details.
Adeolu is kind hearted and generous, which is why he makes friends easily.
I wish him a very bright, glorious and fulfilling and many happy returns of his birthday.”
