The President, National Union of Road Transport Workers, Musiliu Akinsanya, has boasted that some of his children are not only well educated, but they are also citizens of great countries such as the United States of America and the United Kingdom.
He said this as he berated those mocking him over a grammatical blunder he committed, saying ‘Kundusi to you’ when he meant ‘Kudos to you’.
The video in which he committed the gaffe had gone viral.
Among the celebrities who mocked Oluomo is fuji artiste, Atawewe, who played on the statement during a performance.
Addressing union delegates on Tuesday, he noted: “If you and my children come out to express yourself, I’m not sure you can beat them, they are highly educated. I trained my children properly with money. My children are citizens of America and the United Kingdom. I worked hard to get there.
“‘Kundusi!’ What happened? Grammars are too much. Grammar won’t finish Nigeria, I might not understand the English language, but I understand Yoruba,” he said.
The union leader also relished his beginning, stressing, “I started as a bus conductor, then as a treasurer of a unit of NURTW, to unit chairman, to branch deputy treasurer, to branch treasurer, to branch chairman, to state chairman, and then to national president. I worked hard to get here. I am not educated.
“So they are mocking me for saying ‘kundusi’, is my child not Qudus? You that you are educated, what did you do?,” he queried.
Akinsanya’s children are known to be in the defense of their father anytime he goofed on social media with a bad expression.
In 2022, one of his sons, who identified as King West on Instagram, challenged those calling his father a lout.
Kingwest took to his account after a troll tagged his father a lout who was just enjoying the national wealth because of his relationship with President Bola Tinubu.
He wrote, “For those calling my father a tout, if my father was your father, you would never lack love, care, protection. Get a father like mine.”
