WASIU AYINDE BIGGEST SPENDER, RILWAN ALESINLOYE[ALESH] GOES UNDERGROUND?

It is doubtful if anyone who is conversant with the happenings in the social circle can claim ignorant of Rilwan Alenshiloye, famously called Alesh. Rilwan is married to Sade Aleshinloye, also a socialite and businesswoman.

In the 90s, he literally reigned supreme in the social circles. He dominated the scene with his lifestyle. He was a heavy spender and major financier of several social events. 

He used to be the toast of many Fuji artistes and many of them benefited from his deep pocket. Recall that Fuji star, King Wasiu Ayinde Marshal, aka KI De Ultimate, sang his praise in several of his albums.

But like an anticlimax, the popular socialite suddenly fizzled out of the scene, unannounced! One of his friends and co-travelers on the social scene hinted Society Happenings that though the former Eti-Osa Local Government chairman still attends parties, he is not as reckless with money as he used to be. 

Rilwan, who is one of the top chieftains of All Progressive Congress in Lagos State, is a close associate of its national leader, Asiwaju Ahmed Tinubu.
