KERUBU 2020 promises to be a fantastically exciting Annual General Meeting of the Alumni Association of the Cherubim and Seraphim High School, Ilésà. It promises to be a reunion that is destined for the History books of the great Alma Mater. It would be special in all ramifications.
Our dear KERUBU, my darling KERUBU, ensconced in the wings of a richly endowed 48 Acre land, in my time, about 45 years ago, brimmed with fruits of all kinds. From Àgbálùmò, Òrombó, Móngòrò, Ìyeyè, Kashú to Tanjarínnì and Gúáfà. There were also some kolanut trees mingled with cocoa trees. The environment, luxuriant and exuberant in its greenness, was always lavish and luscious in its abundance.
My humble self, raised in a beautiful village, and fairly familiar with farm environments was not left out of the self - indulgent Kerubic adventures. Not with my addiction to Ìyeyè and Àgbálùmò.
The Iyàrà, laying prostrate at the edge of our KERUBU, deep, dark, and dreary in its ominous quietude, was not enticing in any manner. Damp, drab and dismal in its countenance, the dungeon was dingy, doleful and depressive in its dissension.
