Ojuawo Pays Courtesy Visit to Ekiti South West Leaders, Rallies Support for BAO’s Re-Election.

Still in the festive spirit, the Honourable Member representing Ekiti South Federal Constituency I, Hon. (AVM Rtd.) Ojuawo Rufus Adeniyi, paid a courtesy visit to leaders in Ekiti South West Local Government Area as a mark of respect for the new year and to mobilise support for the re-election of Governor Biodun Oyebanji (BAO) in the forthcoming gubernatorial election.

Hon. Ojuawo was accompanied by Engr. Gbenga Omole (Ologbo), Comrade Femi Babalola, Engr. Bayo Olotin, Hon. Deji Ajayi, and other aides.

The visit commenced at the Legislative Chamber of Ekiti South West Local Government, where the delegation was warmly received by the Council Chairman, Hon. Richard Apolola (aka Sikira), alongside councillors of the local government.

In his welcome address, Hon. Apolola expressed gratitude to Hon. Ojuawo for the visit, describing it as a commendable gesture of respect to both the executive and legislative arms of the council.

“As Chairman and gatekeeper of Ekiti South West, we are united in purpose and sincerity of heart to welcome you. We appreciate your consistent support for grassroots development. Here in Ekiti South West, we are BAO, sealed,” he affirmed.

Speaking on behalf of the legislative house, the Spokesperson, Hon. Samuel Ogundola, appreciated Hon. Ojuawo for his continuous support, recalling the legislative training organised before their inauguration.

“It has been good news since then. On behalf of the House, I say thank you, sir, and we humbly request more of such opportunities,” he said.

Engr. Gbenga Omole also commended the Chairman and councillors for the unity and harmony within the local government, urging them to translate this cohesion into electoral strength for Governor Oyebanji in the coming election.

In his remarks, Hon. Ojuawo thanked his hosts and charged them to intensify mobilisation efforts ahead of the gubernatorial election.

“The agenda before us is BAO. The new year comes with responsibility, and that responsibility is to deliver incredible results for BAO. We must work together—no big man here. BAO is our symbol, and we must institutionalise continuity in Ekiti, just as it is done in Lagos. My mission is to felicitate with you and also to alert you that it is time to start working. Your requests are noted and are achievable,” he assured.

The federal lawmaker also visited Ogotun Ekiti, where he met with party members and paid a New Year homage to His Royal Majesty, Oba Adebayo Adesanmi, Atewogboye II, the Ologotun of Ogotun Ekiti. He informed the monarch that the sod-turning for the newly approved polling Station, as requested by the community, would soon take place. He further encouraged party members to remain focused, assuring them that party welfare remains a continuous priority.

At Igbara Odo, Hon. Ojuawo met with party leaders, reiterating that Governor Oyebanji has laid a strong foundation that allows citizens to thrive in a peaceful and inclusive environment.

“We must emulate the unifying spirit of Governor Biodun Oyebanji, who has reinforced unity across the state. This spirit must be entrenched in all areas under our control. I also want to assure you that the channelisation of the Oruwo River will soon commence, as promised by FERMA,” he stated.

Responding on behalf of the leaders, Mr. Oluwole Ariyo (aka Gato), an APC chieftain, and Mrs. Bukola Olowolaju, Chairman of Igbara Odo/Ogotun LCDA, appreciated Hon. Ojuawo for his festive support, welfare interventions, and forthright leadership.

“You are an honest man who says what he means and means what he says. In Igbara Odo, we are solidly behind BAO,” Mr. Ariyo declared.

Mrs. Olowolaju also assured Hon. Ojuawo of the total and continuous support of Igbara Odo leaders for the APC, pledging to keep strengthening the party to greater heights.
