The Untold Story of JACOB ODULATE (The Blessed Jacob), The Man Who Invented Alabukun Powder Almost 100 Years Ago

The Untold Story of JACOB ODULATE (The Blessed Jacob), The Man Who Invented Alabukun Powder Almost 100 Years Ago

03:49 0

Like the humble kolanut, Alabukun powder is one of the unifying items in Nigeria. It is very popular and there is virtually no home in the country where one or more members have not been in touch with or used Alabukun. Even without any considerable adverts, it beats all competitors and foreign brands hands down. Grandmothers swear by its healing powers while men claim it is their aphrodisiac. Yes, it is that popular. Cheap and easily recognizable, it is found everywhere. From headaches to voice troubles to stomach upsets to general body pain, Alabukun is the ultimate magic cure for millions of Nigerians. Some even take it to the dark side as they mix the whitish powder in a cold bottle of Sprite, swirl and swallow (some say they combine it with lime), as their drug for aborting pregnancies. Good or bad, the Alabukun brand has persisted and today, we will take a look at the history of the man behind it all:

BACKGROUND

Jacob Sogboyega Odulate aka Blessed Jacob was a Nigerian pharmacist, inventor and entrepreneur born in 1884. He died in 1962. In 1918, he invented the legendary Alabukun powder which is now a hit in the world’s most populous nation and in other West African nations. He was originally from Ikorodu in Lagos State but later moved to the neighbouring Ogun State. He was just 14 when he left Ikorodu, he trekked for three months before reaching Abeokuta to establish himself.

MAKING THE DRUG

The making of the drug was in Abeokuta, Ogun State, southwestern Nigeria. 1918 was a year of British colonialism but in spite of all the obstacles the imperialists placed before the ‘natives’, Blessed Jacob managed to create a brand from what served as his consulting room and workshop. His modest headquarters was at the Sapon Area, not far from where he later built his famous three-storey building in Ijemo Agbadu.

Apart from making the drugs, the energetic Blessed Jacob also produced other brands like Alabukun mentholine, other preparations and an annual journal called Alabukun Almanac which was widely distributed in Abeokuta and eventually all over Nigeria between the 1920s and 1950s.

THE DRUG ITSELF

So how about Alabukun Powder itself? What does it look like to a pharmacist? If you are to check it up in a formulary, what will you see? What are its active ingredients and what makes it tick and its users addicted to it? Well, information gleaned from the packet itself and on TabletWise shows that Alabukun Powder contains acetylsalicylic acid and caffeine as its active ingredients. A packet contains 760 milligrammes of acetylsalicyclic acid and 60 milligrammes of caffeine making a total of 820 mg. Although many Nigerians use it as an over-the-counter drug primarily as a mild analgesic for headache and other simple infirmities, the application of Alabukun powder is actually more diverse than that. It is used for a host of things and these include migraine, prevention of blood clots, myocardial infarction, transluminal angioplasty, ischaemic attacks and stroke. It can also be used in the treatment, management or prevention of these conditions:

– Toothache

– Sore throat

– Neuralgias

NB: Do not use Alabukun powder for any of these conditions without recommendations from a medical doctor. It is also important to note that the following side effects can result from taking Alabukun: oedema (swelling due to fluid accumulation, asthma, vomiting, nausea and vertigo).

So how does the magic of Alabukun powder take place and why is it so effective that many will swear over and over again that it can cure just about anything? Well, the pharmacodynamics of Alabukun powder show that it functions by preventing the production of platelet aggregation and inhibits adenosine in the body. These functions reduce pain and allows the user to breath better by stimulating the brain and the heart.

A LOVING FAMILY

He had a very exemplary family and he took education of his children very seriously. From the proceeds of his business, he sent his children to study at some of the best universities in Durham, Newcastle, United States of America and London. His children graduated and became medical doctors, lawyers, educationists and engineers. They returned to Nigeria to contribute their quota to national development.

PROUD AND SUCCESSFUL DESCENDANTS

The children of the late Blessed Jacob are worthy ambassadors of the family. One of them is Mrs. Folake Odulate (later to become Chief. Mrs. Folake Solanke) who is the first female lawyer in Nigeria to wear the silk and she also became the first female Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN). In 1966, she established the first law firm by a Nigerian female at Ibadan, Oyo State and named it Alabukun Chambers in honour of her great faher. Alabukun is another name for God in Yoruba and it means the Giver of Grace. His granddaughter, Toyin Odulate, is an entrepreneur and the founder of Olori Cosmetics, an African-themed beauty company dealing with hair, bath and body care products. She established the company in 2013 after garnering years of experience which included working with the global cosmetic brand, L’Oreal. Her goal is to take over the Nigeria and subSaharan market and she is making good progress.

ALABUKUN TODAY

Almost 100 years after, the brand remains one of the most resilient in Africa. Extracts from the book written by his eldest surviving child, Chief Mrs. Stella O. Odesanya had it thus:

The enduring success of the Alabukun brand is now interwoven into the fabric of modern Nigeria medical history. The Alabukun Powder in particular is displayed and sold in thousands of pharmacies, markets and roadside stalls all over Nigeria. In many states in Nigeria, Alabukun powder is considered to be the obligatory cure-all for almost every ailment. In neighbouring countries such as Benin Republic, Ghana and Cameroon, the eye-catching Alabukun brand is to be seen advertised everywhere. Alabukun products are sold in several towns and cities in the USA, the UK, in Europe, Brazil, Jamaica, and yes, even as far away as China. You can buy Alabukun products on-line, off-line, under-bridges and over-expressways.

CONCLUSION

Without any government support and facing immense obstacles from the British colonialists who controlled all the economy, Blessed Jacob managed to create a brand that has lasted a century. He was a very focused, determined and single-minded man. This is a lesson for all Nigerian youths waiting for miracles and the government. Look within and help yourself.

Could My Husband Be Sleeping With My Mum - Confused Woman Cries Out

05:01 0

“I am upset and do not know what to do; I feel like my world is starting to crumble. I got married three years ago and things were going on smoothly until three months ago. My husband is an expatriate who is hardly in the country.

We find ways to connect with each other despite our busy lives. The last time my husband came home, I noticed a change in him. He was excited for some unknown reasons; he had a weird way of responding to my presence in the room. I found all these things strange even though i decided to let things slide since we did not have any argument. I altered the pattern of visit three months ago because of the economy; we felt it was better for him to come visit since we were handling some projects. I was practically horny and could not wait for him to settle down properly before I started touching him. He threw me off and said he was tired. I knew I was being selfish considering the hours he spent in the plane. When we finally had time for ourselves, something strange happened. He was disconnected most of the time and i had to talk to bring him back to my body. When he released, he moaned a name in my ears repeatedly.

It took me a while before I got to know it was my mother’s name he was calling. Why in God’s name will my husband call out my mother’s name when we are making love? I had a special pet name for her so it could not have been someone’s name. I did not have the courage to ask him about it; it must have been my ears picking the wrong sound. But the same thing happened when we made love the next day. He closed his eyes as he called her name. I got worried at this point and reacted; he added my name to it and made it look like he was praising me.

Coincidentally, my mother visited us some days after and I watched both of them closely. He had always been free with her but every movement had meaning to me. She kept referring to the last time she traveled out of the country; I had sent some things to him and he had sent her back to me. But only God knows what happened while they were alone. I caught my husband looking funnily at my mum. I am afraid to confront him because I cannot bring myself to ask him what happened between him and her. The thought of my mother and my husband being together is driving me crazy. As much as I do not want people to know about this, it is serious. My husband calls my mother’s name during love making. Please what do I do?

Many feel it’s a good way to discipline a kid others felt embarrassing him would only make him more hardened … Are you for or against this kind of punishment?
