By Eric Elezuo
When a man is blessed with ideas, he is expected to turn then to reality for the benefit of humanity. One man who has perfectly brought his ideas to generous fruition and for the good of mankind is the indefatigable Managing Director of Madosi Nigeria Limited, Mr. Samuel Elijah Whenayon.
The undeniably handsome and prolific entrepreneur, who is a proud native of Agido Iworo in Badagry Local Government Area of Lagos State, has seen the need to ensure that everyone lives in a clean, healthy and germ free environment, and so floated a company saddled with the responsibility of cleaning, clearing and fumigation as well as recruitments.
A stern believer in hard work, Whenayon assumes a workaholic disposition and personality, and this could be seen in the way he goes about his daily business with the sole aim of satisfying customers and putting lasting smiles on their faces.
He is a merry go round socialite, and can easily relate with anyone and everyone, though he does not devote all his time for social gatherings.
Hear him: “Many people never believe I socialize simply because I devote most of my time to my business. I socialize a lot, love a lot and at the same time, I am a very busy person”
With his wealth of experience, Whenayon has turned Madosi into one of the best in the field of clearing & fumigation services and recruitments where any customer can easily get greater value for little money.
However, in his modesty, he believes that there is still more work to be done.
“The company is still growing but definitely we will still get there,” he said
Describing Modosi, he said: Madosi is a service rendering company; we are into Cleaning, Janitorial, Fumigation, Recruitment and Background checks.
“If I tell you we are one of the best companies in the country, I am not mistaken. We have a team of professionally trained staff who are committed to solving clients’ problems on fumigation and other environmental challenges. Our expertise in mixing chemicals to bring out the best friendly to humans and disastrous to pests and germs is second to none, and we also have spice permit.
The very loving CEO is also a wonderful family man.
Patronise Madosi today for the best in environment needs.
There was panic on Friday after human rights activist, Omoyele Sowore, collapsed following a confrontation with the police during a Democracy Day protest at the Unity Fountain in Abuja.
Reports said that Sowore collapsed after police operatives moved to disperse protesters gathered to demonstrate against insecurity, economic hardship and bad governance.
The demonstrators were dispersed after security personnel fired teargas canisters at the protesters in an apparent attempt to break up the gathering.
Following the incident, Sowore has reportedly been taken to an undisclosed hospital for further examination and treatment.
The FCT Police Command has successfully rescued five kidnapped victims following an intensive joint rescue operation conducted in the Byazhin area of the Federal Capital Territory.
Acting on recent kidnapping incidents within Paze community in Byazhin area, the Commissioner of Police, FCT Command, CP Ahmed Muhammed Sanusi, PhD, FCAI, personally led a clearance operation with a team comprising operatives of the Anti-Kidnapping Unit, the NPF Intelligence Response Team (IRT), and Kubwa Area Command, in collaboration with local hunters and vigilante groups.
On 9th June, 2026, at approximately 9:00 p.m., the joint security team launched an intensive search, clearance, and rescue operation across Paze and Byazhin communities. During the operation, the team engaged suspected kidnappers in a gun duel, resulting in the neutralization of two suspects and the arrest of two others identified as Icheh Mohammadu and Abubakar Usman, while other gang members fled into nearby hills with varying degrees of bullet wounds. During the operation, the police team also recovered two AK-47 rifles with magazines. The Command therefore calls on healthcare practitioners, private and public hospitals, and members of the public to promptly report any individual presenting gunshot related injuries or seeking treatment under suspicious circumstances.
The sustained pressure mounted on the criminal elements forced them to abandon five hostages, who were promptly rescued unharmed.
The rescued victims have since been taken to a nearby hospital for medical attention, while efforts are ongoing to reunite them with their families. Meanwhile, search operations continue across the general area and adjoining communities aimed at apprehending the fleeing suspects and dismantling the criminal network.
The Commissioner of Police commended the bravery, resilience, and professionalism displayed by the operatives and supporting local security volunteers during the operation. He reaffirmed the Command’s resolve to combating kidnapping and other violent crimes across the Federal Capital Territory.
Members of the public are encouraged to remain security conscious and report suspicious persons or activities to the nearest police station or through the Command’s emergency numbers: 08032003913, 07057337653.
