Why he is loved at various nightclubs
There is no gainsaying that Hon Richard Adedamola Kasunmu, the lawmaker representing Ikeja II Constituency at the Lagos State House of Assembly is living life beyond his wildest dreams. The flamboyant up-and-coming politician, whose swift rise in recent times is not unconnected to the backing of his uncle Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, has been in the news lately. ARK, as the neophyte politician is fondly called by admirers, will clock 35 on March 26,the exact same date his famous uncle turns 66. The grandson of the late great business magnate and market women leader Alhaja Abibat Mogaji has become the fuel that feeds the Flames of gossip, and not because of his activities in the LSHA. According to news making the rounds, Damola has decided that he likes the Lagos Night life scene more than the chamber of lawmaking. The handsome dude is now a regular visitor to fun spots, especially those around the Ikeja axis. Barely a night goes by where he isn’t seen having a good time with fellow members of the jet-set crowd at popular spots. Rhapsody, a night life spot within Ikeja City Mall has practically become his second home. While people from his constituency frown at the carefree attitude of Damola, he hardly seems perturbed by all the attention: he revels in it. Not a few have maintained that his close connection with the Lion of Bourdillon has emboldened the dude to continue living as he likes while he pays lip service to his duties as a representative.
