This edition is a 193-page compendium in honour of Otunba (Dr.) Michael Olasubomi Olayiwola Oladimeji Olaonipekun Balogun (CON), the Grandmaster and icon of Nigerian banking and financial services sectors; and a philanthropist who embodied the influential impact of courageous altruism.
Otunba Balogun, the founder of First City Monument Bank, FCMB, the Otunba Tunwase of Ijebuland, the Olori Omo-Oba Akile Ijebu and the Asiwaju of Ijebu Christians, was a great man in the true sense of the word.
His death, last May, really shook the nation to its crusts, not just because he was a man of unparalleled energy and accomplishments, but due to the many lives he touched.
This edition is packed with interview, stories and tributes by prominent family members, friends, associates, mentees, admirers and well-wishers.
The ELITES dedicates this edition to the worthy legacies of the grandmaster and iconic male figure whose life and legacy perfectly portrayed the patriarchal concept and standard of the society.

Abimbola Craig reveals why she’s still unmarried at 38
Abimbola Craig, the Nigerian actress, has revealed why she is not married at 38.
In an interview with Chude Jideonwo, the media personality, Craig said she believes โmarriage is a scamโ.
The actress critiqued traditional marital roles where women are often burdened with home management and catering to their partners, referring to the title โMrsโ as shorthand for โMasterโs in Residential Servicingโ.
She also clarified that her decision to remain single is not because she opposes marriage but because she values a partner with self-awareness or purpose.
โAll marriage is a scam. When I was small, my mum always told me marriage is an institution. She said when they call you โMrs,โ it stands for โMasterโs in Residential Servicingโ,โ she said.
โI am not married, not because I do not want to be married, but if you are a man who does not know who he is, you cannot be with me.โ
Craig is best known for her role as Tiwalade in the hit web series โSkinny Girl in Transitโ. She has also made her mark as a producer, co-producing the 2019 box office hit โSugar Rushโ alongside Jade Osiberu.

Bolanle Ninalowo opens up on early career struggles
Bolanle Ninalowo has revealed how he overcame early career setbacks to achieve success in Nollywood.
In an unreleased episode of โOff The Topโ podcast, Ninalowo said his initial failures ultimately led to his triumph in the entertainment industry.
When asked about his motivation to persevere in an unreleased episode of โOff The Topโ podcast, the 44-year-old emphasised that being down can present unexpected opportunities for self-discovery.
Reflecting on his Nollywood journey, Ninalowo credited his initial failures for his eventual success.
โWhen you fall flat on your face and you are backed against the wall, that is when you get the biggest opportunities to discover yourself. I tell people that when I came to Nollywood, the secrets of my success are buried in my failures,โ he said.
Ninalowoโs entry into Nollywood was far from smooth. He began as a producer but faced failure. He then ventured into music, only to find it wasnโt his calling. Undeterred, he returned to acting in the mid-2000s.
His breakthrough came with the 2015 movie โDesperate Baby Mamas,โ which propelled him to fame. Since then, the Ikorodu-born actor has appeared in numerous hit films, showcasing his versatility in both Yoruba and English movies.
Some of his notable roles include performances in โFate of Alakada,โ โComing From Insanity,โ โBreaded Life,โ โLakatabu,โ and โAlter Date.โ
Ninalowoโs resilience and determination have made him a household name in Nollywood.
