The Undeniable Return: Why Ekiti North Constituency II Needs Hon. Ibrahim Kunle Olarewaju.

The Undeniable Return: Why Ekiti North Constituency II Needs Hon. Ibrahim Kunle Olarewaju.

The air in Ekiti North Federal Constituency II (comprising Ido/Osi, Moba, and Ilejemeje Local Governments) is thick with nostalgia and a fervent desire for the return of a true servant-leader: Hon. Ibrahim Kunle Olarewaju (IBO). Though a manipulation of the political process led to his momentary exit from the House of Representatives after the 2023 election, his service trajectory and immediate elevation by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu are compelling testimonies to a character that remains indispensable to his people.

Hon. Ibrahim Kunle Olarewaju is widely recognized not just as a politician, but as a responsible father, a principled public servant, and a committed philanthropist. His good character is evident in his inclusive approach to politics and his unwavering commitment to his constituents.

He is A Responsible Father and Role Model: IBO understands that leadership begins at home. His dedication to his family mirrors his commitment to the collective welfare of the community, setting a strong moral and ethical standard for the youth in the constituency.

He is A Quintessential Philanthropist: Throughout his tenure and even now, his impact has transcended legislative duties. He has actively engaged in extensive empowerment programmes, including the provision of 200 Brand New Laptops and essential training for youths and teachers in Ekiti State, demonstrating a deep-seated belief in human capital development and the "Renewed Hope" agenda.  

Hon. Olarewaju's solid academic background forms the bedrock of his pragmatic approach to governance. As an accomplished lawyer (Barr.), he brings a meticulous, constitutional, and law-abiding perspective to every challenge.  

During his time representing the constituency in the 9th National Assembly, he distinguished himself as a lawmaker with substance, serving meritoriously as the Deputy Chairman of the House Committee on Agricultural Production and Services. Notably, he ranked high among Ekiti State's federal lawmakers in terms of legislative productivity, sponsoring a significant number of bills. This proven capacity to contribute meaningfully to lawmaking is precisely what Ekiti North II is missing.  

Justifying His Appointment

The most powerful justification for Hon. Olarewaju’s return lies in the immediate recognition of his value by the highest office in the land. Following the 2023 election, and despite the political maneuvering that led to his loss, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu immediately appointed him as the Senior Special Assistant to the President on National Assembly Matters.  

This swift appointment was not a consolation prize; it was a strategic move rooted in necessity and trust. As noted by the Ekiti State Governor, Mr. Biodun Oyebanji, the appointment recognized IBO's "steadfastness, political maturity and high level integrity," and the President’s need for an experienced, decent, and pragmatic politician to serve as the critical liaison between the Presidency and the House of Representatives. This immediate elevation confirms that the loss in the constituency was a political setback, not a repudiation of his competence or character. The President knows his value; the constituency should reclaim it.

The fact remains: Hon. Ibrahim Kunle Olarewaju has established a track record of performance, accessibility, and developmental politics that resonates deeply with the people of Ido/Osi, Moba, and Ilejemeje. The missing link in the current representation is the dedicated and effective leadership that he provides.

IBO is A Champion of Empowerment: His consistent empowerment drives, even while serving in a federal appointment, prove that his connection to the grassroots is unwavering.  

IBO is A Bridge to the Presidency: His current role has positioned him closer to the apex of power, giving him unparalleled access and influence to attract Federal projects and opportunities back to the constituency, a key advantage Ekiti North II should not forfeit.

Hon. Ibrahim Kunle Olarewaju’s return to the House of Representatives is not merely a political ambition; it is the logical next step for a constituency that deserves the very best of representation. It is time for the people to harness his high-level experience, political sagacity, and presidential trust to secure a brighter future.

First Lady Oluremi Tinubu Supports 250 PWDs in Ekiti with N200,000 each.

…Launches Renewed Hope Initiative for PWDs.

The First Lady of Nigeria and National Chairman of Renewed Hope Initiative (RHI), Senator Oluremi Tinubu on Wednesday empowered 250 Persons With Disabilities (PWDs) in Ekiti State with N50,000,000 grant to boost their economic independence and improve their livelihoods.

Each of the PWDs was presented N200,000 cash at the event which held at the Lady Jibowu Hall, Government House, Ado-Ekiti.

Speaking at the event, Senator Oluremi Tinubu who was represented by the Wife of Ekiti State Governor and RHI State Coordinator, Dr Olayemi Oyebanji,  highlighted the importance of inclusion and equal opportunity, stressing that the initiative was part of a broader national vision to ensure that no one is left behind in the social and economic development of the country.

Senator Oluremi, who also launched the Renewed Hope Initiative (RHI) Economic Empowerment for PWDs to commemorate the International Day of PWDs, said the Economic Empowerment Programme which held simultaneously across the 36 states, would provide business recapitalization grants of N200,000 to 250 PWDs in each State and the Federal Capital Territory to help strengthen their existing businesses, enhance their livelihoods and achieve greater self-reliance.

While maintaining that the programme aligns with the Renewed Hope Agenda of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, which seeks inclusive growth and shared prosperity, the Wife of the President explained that over the past two years, the initiative has supported more than 100,000 women petty traders and small business owners, support agriculture, education, health as well as provide emergency relief to vulnerable communities, victims of disasters and internally displaced persons across the country.

Expressing her profound gratitude to Ekiti State Governor, Mr Biodun Oyebanji and His Wife, Dr Olayemi Oyebanji for their support and for complimenting the efforts of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu at ensuring that no one is left behind in the development agenda of the country, the First Lady also assured that the empowerment programe would now be an annual event for the PWDs to mark their day.

“Our nation grows stronger when every individual is empowered to contribute meaningfully. As Helen Keller, the renowned American disability rights advocate, once said, “Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much.” These words remind us that a truly inclusive society is built when we stand together, creating opportunities that empower everyone to contribute their unique gifts to our collective progress.

“Today, the Renewed Hope Initiative will provide the sum of two hundred thousand naira (N200,000) Business Recapitalization Grants to two hundred and fifty (250) Persons with Disabilities in each State and the Federal Capital Territory to support small business owners to recapitalize their existing businesses and strengthen their means of livelihood.

“This programme aligns with the Renewed Hope Agenda of His Excellency, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, which seeks to promote inclusive growth and shared prosperity by ensuring that no Nigerian is left behind, especially those whose needs are often overlooked and It is worth noting that, over the past two years, the Renewed Hope Initiative has supported over one hundred thousand (100,000) women petty traders and small business owners, including persons with disabilities, with direct financial grants to grow their businesses”. She asserted.

 The event was attended by the  Deputy Governor, Chief (Mrs) Monisade Afuye, Secretary to Ekiti State Government, Prof. Habibat Adubiaro, Head of Service, Dr (Mrs) Folakemi Olomojobi, Commissioner for Education, Dr (Mrs) Bimpe Aderiye, Special Adviser, Special Education and Social Inclusion, Princess Adetoun Agboola, among others top government functionaries.

Leadership Alert: Oluwatuyi Advocates Stronger Director–Subordinate Relations for Better Outcome.

Leadership Alert: Oluwatuyi Advocates Stronger Director–Subordinate Relations for Better Outcome.

By Asubiojo G.O

The game-changing administrative and political leadership of Hon. Oluwatuyi Oluwagbenga, popularly known as Chenco, has reaffirmed its commitment to inclusive governance and institutional growth by urging Directors in Irepodun Ifelodun Local Government, Igede-Ekiti, to foster more collaborative relationships with their deputies and subordinates. This directive emphasizes a culture of engagement, capacity building, and shared responsibility aimed at improving efficiency and effectiveness in public service delivery.

Hon. Oluwatuyi delivered this charge during a maiden interactive session held on Wednesday with Directors and Deputy Directors across all departments. The Chairman advised leaders to exhibit trust, professional sincerity, and constructive communication by involving their deputies and sectional heads in carrying out official duties. According to him, effective leadership is not anchored in secrecy or hierarchical distance, but in mentorship, shared responsibility, and humility in leadership conduct.

The Chairman also cautioned against the destructive tendencies of gossip, unhealthy rivalry, and divisive communication that undermine productivity. He stressed that punctuality and disciplined work culture remain non-negotiable expectations, adding that he maintains an open door for meaningful interaction but does not entertain clandestine conversations or personal grievances that do not align with official purpose. He further warned against unhelpful comparisons between Irepodun Ifelodun and other local government councils, as each operates under unique administrative realities.

Hon. Oluwatuyi emphasized the need for Directors to fully utilize their deputies by empowering them to attend meetings, represent them when required, and gain hands-on knowledge of civil service protocols for improved institutional continuity and succession capability.

The Secretary to the Local Government, Hon. Dr. Tunji Sule, echoed this position, urging Directors to actively mentor their deputies and foster uprightness in official duties. He stressed that allowing deputies to step in at engagements prepares them for higher responsibility and sharpens their administrative reasoning.

In the same vein, the Head of Local Administration (HLA), Mrs. Akinbobola Deborah-B, called for a balanced leadership approach. She advised Directors not to be authoritarian or excessively demanding, while equally charging deputies to remain loyal, dedicated, and professionally committed. She expressed gratitude to the Chairman, Vice Chairman, and Secretary for their consistent support on matters of staff welfare.

Speaking on behalf of the Directors, Messrs. Asubiojo, Faluyi Joseph, and Olanrewaju appreciated the Chairman for facilitating an open and forward-thinking dialogue aimed at enhancing departmental performance. They encouraged deputies to demonstrate diligence and proactiveness in their roles.

In response, the deputies  who spoke through Messrs::: Atobaje, Omole, Ogunjobi victor , Ajayi Kemisola and Engineer Dipo Bamisile ,collectively expressed appreciation for the opportunity to participate in the engagement. They pledged continued loyalty, commitment to official assignments, and respect for administrative superiors and political leadership. They however appealed for continued improvements in staff welfare and conditions of service.

The engagement concluded on a forward-looking and uplifting note, with all participants united in their resolve to deepen collaboration, strengthen internal capacity, and sustain a culture of professional synergy. With renewed administrative energy and strengthened interpersonal ties, Irepodun Ifelodun Local Government appears set for an era of improved productivity, harmonious teamwork, and enhanced service delivery to the benefit of the communities it serves.
