One trending and undisputable fact in Ogun politics today, which cut across all political divides, especially, in Ogun Central senatorial district is that – there are two major philanthropists cum political candidates whose sagacity, goodwill and humanity have consumed all rivalries at all levels. These candidates are – Chief Olumide Aderinokun and Hon. Toyin Amuzu respectively.
While Chief Olumide Aderinokun is contesting for Senate, Ogun Central senatorial district under the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Hon. Toyin Amuzu is also contesting for House of Representatives, Abeokuta South Federal Constituency under the PDP.
Of these two candidates, an average person in Ogun Central senatorial district knows they have passed all tests of humanities and leadership traits to change the dynamism of politics in Ogun central for good, and give the people a good representation they deserved.
Despite the fact that these candidates are spending their hard-earned money to help countless people out of hardship, they have also been able to carried out several physical projects and lives impacting programmes for the masses successfully, centered on youths development, human empowerment, community services and social welfare.
Long before now, these two candidates have always been all over the places, working so hard in touching people’s lives positively, through their foundations; Olumide and Stephanie Aderinokun Foundation as well as Toyin Amuzu – TA foundation without government money. One will hardly see anyone around them who has not directly or indirectly enjoyed the dividends of democracy through their philanthropical gestures.
These candidates are not only intelligent, but also have youthful energies to ensure good governance in our developing society.
At times, I wonder if they are contesting for governorship seat because, their zeal and commitment surpassed that of national assembly’s requirements. As a matter of fact, many are those in government, spending and squandering tax payers money with nothing to show for four years. Their opponents have gotten nothing to campaign with, rather, they are basking on the euphoria of unrealistic miracles to come from the already failed APC government.
Times without number, I have x-rayed all the senatorial and house of representatives candidates across board and I can sincerely recommend that; Chief Olumide Aderinokun and Toyin Amuzu are the most qualified as far as Ogun Central senatorial district and Abeokuta South Federal Constituency are concerned. I am sure that they will deliver good leadership for us at the national assembly.
By extension, I humbly call on all and sundry, to canvass, support and vote for Olumide Aderinokun, Toyin Amuzu and other PDP candidates at all levels come February 25th general elections.
To my dear Honourables, Olumide Aderinokun, the Akinruyiwa of Owu Kingdom, and Toyin Amuzu, the Leragun of Igbehinland, Abeokuta, I joyously congratulate you in advance.
