He went off the social radar for a while and rumours peddlers said he had gone broke, hence he had to keep a low profile. Unknown to many, <strong>Rotimi Ajanaku<\/strong> \u00a0quietly jetted to the U.K for a three-month leadership course at the University of Cambridge. \u00a0Don Dino is back to the social radar to reclaim his top spot. He has been spotted lately at different societal gatherings and events. As the next general election gets closer, a source close to the business mogul disclosed that he might be contesting for a political office in his paternal hometown in Lagos.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><!-- .entry-content --><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>By Sofowora Oladapo<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rotimi Ajanaku is from the Ajanaku dynasty in Lagos Island \u2018Oke Popo\u2019.
