Time isn't a Limitation to Fulfilling Destiny - Awotiwon Ibiyemi Joseph
Can we meet You?
Ibiyemi: I am Awotiwon Ibiyemi Joseph and I’m currently a 500 Level Law student of the Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife. I was born into the family of Mr and Mrs Awotiwon, in the early 90's and am the first of three boys, am from Ondo state, an Ilaje boy on paper, am fluent in only Yoruba as a local language. I had all my education in Lagos, I went through pre-degree 2011 and was offered admission into the faculty 2012 though resumed 2013. My hobbies are playing games, watching movies, politics, advocating and counselling, am a football lover. My political involvements are:
I served as the Chairman of Angola 2013/2014 and contested for Secretary General of the Union and I went ahead to also contest as President of the Union, though i was the runner up for both elections. Am a political analyst and lover.
As a lover of politics, what is your opinion on the State of the Union currently? What do you think the students can do to make the Union rise again?
Ibiyemi: It was a clear prediction of the result we have in the union that it would fail because the union isn't a training ground. The present issue we have is as a result of power tussle. I’m sure all parties are working together to work out all the issue on ground. I believe that harmonizing our interests as a union and holding strong to the tenets of our union as well. the training of our leaders is Paramount and experience in politics can never be sidelined in politics.
Moyomade: Do you think there's any similarity between the current state of the union and that of LSS?
Ibiyemi: Not at all. The Lss politics is strictly a political tussle and am sure they have resolved it.
How has been your stay in ifelaw so far? What's your most memorable experience
Ibiyemi: I came, I saw and I conquered. It has been a nice experience. Sometimes I wish I could start all over. As for memorable experiences, I don't have any. All of my days in that faculty are memorable.
Moyomade: Nice... What will you miss the most when you graduate?
Ibiyemi: I miss you and all the beautiful sights, the freedom of movements and many others
Moyomade: Lol... We'll miss you too
Moyomade: So, what are your plans for after graduation?
Ibiyemi: I want to go out there and fulfill destiny, change lives and make money.
Moyomade: Well, will that be before or after law school?
Ibiyemi: Within the over 10months I would be waiting for Law school. Time isn't a determinant or limitation to fulfilling destiny, a well structured plan can make a man do whatever he wants even in a day.
Moyomade: Would you like to say anything to your colleagues and juniors?
Ibiyemi: Life is just too short, hold on to the people you know, make good use of your relationship with whosoever you find, make peace with all men because we would all come back to see one day. And as Solomon said: "Fear God and keep his commandment".
Academics isn't all you need to be a success but all you can learn while in school make a great difference. Get information and never be sidelined or isolated. Having A's is good but be involved in some other activities, mine is politics, what is yours? The best in academics don't end up as best in life or even in practise. Wish us the best and with all certainty we would meet at the top.
Thank you
