Easter Yuletide: Adaramodu Distributes Food Items to Ekiti South Constituents, Inspects Ilawe Market Ahead of Reconstruction.

The Senator representing Ekiti South Senatorial District, Yemi Adaramodu, on Thursday, April 17, 2025, distributed food items to hundreds of constituents as part of activities marking the Easter celebration. The distribution, which took place across various communities within the senatorial district, was aimed at cushioning the effects of economic hardship and spreading the spirit of Easter among the people. Adaramodu, who also chairs the Senate Committee on Media and Publicity, noted that the gesture was part of his ongoing commitment to improving the welfare of his constituents, especially during festive seasons.

Speaking during the distribution, Senator Adaramodu emphasized that leadership is about compassion and being present for the people, not only during elections but at all times. “This is not the first time, and by God’s grace, it won’t be the last. As long as I have the capacity, I will always find ways to support my people. Easter is a time of love and giving, and this is my own little way of sharing that love,” he stated. Beneficiaries across various wards expressed their gratitude, describing the senator as a “rare breed” in Nigerian politics due to his consistency in reaching out to the grassroots.

In a related development, Senator Adaramodu visited Oja Oba Ojulawe market in his hometown of Ilawe-Ekiti for an on-the-spot assessment ahead of its planned demolition and reconstruction. Addressing traders during the inspection, he disclosed that plans were in top gear to replace the dilapidated market structure with a modern facility that would better serve the economic and social needs of the town and surrounding communities. “We are going to build a befitting market here. This is not just about aesthetics; it’s about functionality, safety, and creating a conducive environment for businesses to thrive,” he said.

The senator assured that the reconstruction project would be carried out in phases to minimize disruption to ongoing economic activities. He further promised adequate compensation and a well-organized temporary relocation plan for traders who would be affected by the exercise. According to him, the market reconstruction is part of his broader agenda to foster development and empower local communities across Ekiti South. The project is expected to commence later this year.
