Depending on perspective, change is either the best thing ever or the anathema of all things. For Sola Braithwaite, the former is fact.

As things have begun to look good for Braithwaite, one can only imagine that he would look back in a few months and sigh with gratitude that he is himself and not anyone else.

Sola Braithwaite’s new lease of life is not something that can be pinpointed to any one thing. When Fortune conspires with Providence, one can only gasp and rejoice, not toy with clocks and calendars to find when and how the change came.

Braithwaite is no different. Things have begun to change, and he has regained his groove. That’s all.

A few years ago, Sola Braithwaite was on the news for a whole other matter. This was the issue of his marriage to renowned property lawyer, Ikepo Braithwaite. The Nigerian society was at that time aghast with the news of a mutual dissolution.

Because their marriage had been a regular subject of envious gossip, Sola and Ikepo’s separation was just as trendy.

Recall that that period was obviously difficult for Sola Braithwaite. Neither his personal weight in society nor those of his sisters (Hajia Zainab Folawiyo and Ranti Johnson) were able to shield him from the pokes and punches of the media and traditional conservative society. In any case, those were the old days. Things are much different now.

Where an intimate relationship did not pay off, brotherhood has. This is the gist behind Braithwaite regaining his groove. Among others, it is reported that his association with a State Governor in the North-Central geopolitical zone is yielding more fruits than Braithwaite knows what to do with.

According to the full gist, this Governor has appointed Braithwaite as one of the major contractors in the Middle-Belt State. In fact, Braithwaite is allegedly already supervising two major projects of renovation and refurbishment, one costing about ₦150 million, and the other about ₦360 million.

This Governor-friend of Braithwaite is allegedly pulling no punches in his effort to better the fortunes of Braithwaite.

So, yes, Sola Braithwaite is back!
