By Alonge Michael

If there is anything a lot of pub owners in Lagos metropolis can not beat about the President of Maryland Rotary Club, Austine Eneduwa-George it's his business proficiency. Austine, who runs about three watering holes in Lagos alone, Corner Pocket, Yaba, Cazzbah Bar, Opebi, Ikeja and the Londoner bar tucked inside the beautiful Ikeja GRA all in Lagos respectively, has perfected all plans to give his Yaba, Lagos based pool bar, Corner Pocket a facelift.

The shrewd businessman who is also into oil and gas, En-George Oil and Gas Company was out of town a couple of weeks ago. He jetted to Moscow in Russia where I learnt he has one of the biggest gentleman's clubs called Cazzbah. His journey to Moscow, according to one of his aides also took him to New York City in America but not before he briefly touched Istanbul formerly Constantinople, city in Northwestern Turkey, the only city in the world that sits astride two continents-Europe and Asia.

Having spent sometime in the city, he moved to New York where he went to attend to some matters related to his Rotary Club and of course to shop for things to be used for his Corner Pocket pool bar which sets to host one of the biggest competitions in Snooker Pool soon.

As you are reading this, Austine who is married to a Britton, Ann is in town putting finishing touches to the renewed Corner Pocket bar and at the same time preapring to embark on another tour to Egypt. Call him Ajala Travel and you are not far from the truth!
