MC Oluomo, real name Musiliu Ayinde Akinsanya, has addressed those who mock him over his inability to speak good English.
The road transport workers’ boss stated that though he may not be fluent in English, those mocking him have not raised children who can compete with his children.
Speaking at a public gathering, he narrated how he climbed the ladder, starting as a bus conductor to now being the President of the National Union of Toad Transpoet Workers, NURTW.
He attributed his rise to perseverance and hard work.
He said: “I stayed there and worked hard, I wasn’t educated. See, they said I said Kundus. Is my son not Kundus? You are educated; what have you done? They should go and compete with my children.
“I raised my children in wealth. My children are citizens of America, citizens of the UK. I worked hard to get to that level. Kundus, kudos, what’s the difference? What do you want to hear? English is not my mother tongue, Yoruba is.”
